Denbighshire / Re: Pool Park, Efenechtyd
« on: Tuesday 10 May 05 21:17 BST (UK) »
Hi,Pool Park was once the home of the Salusbury family, one of whom was William Salusbury of Bachymbyd and passed to Sir Walter Bagot thro marriage. It was rebuilt in the Elizabethan style by the Bagot family in 1828 and is situated off the Clawddnewydd Rd out of Ruthin. It is empty and derelict (2003). 100 yrs later the 17,500 acres was split up and put up for sale.An interesting pillar of stonework was erected on nearby Pincyn Llys to commemorate the planting of vast areas of woodland by the 2nd Lord Bagot.
The Bagot family was well known in the area and was responsible for the funding of alms houses in the area among other projects.
My interest is trying to find a Grace Bagot who is supposed to have ran away and eloped with a Peter Evans. They then ran a beerhouse in Parkgate???
Can anyone throw any light on Bagot history Pool Park, not Stafford which is another Bagot stronghold
