Historical Notes
Thomas Stapleton, of Carlton and Bedale, sold Ponteland and made an unsuccessful claim on the Beamont barony in 1794. He also improved the Carlton estate, landscaping the park and adding an east wing and stables. He died in 1821 and his only son died unmarried in 1836; the latter's will was administered by Lady Throckmorton and when she died in 1839 the Carlton inheritance transferred to the descendants of Nicholas Stapleton/Errington's third son, Miles Stapleton (b. circa 1742-1808)
