In 1814 he married Grace Taylor, daughter of Admiral Wiliam Taylor. In 1825 he bought South Hayling Manor from the 12th Duke of Norfolk. This also included Manor Farm, Sinah Farm and South Common. As Lord of the Manor this came with various royalties, tithes, ferry rights and mud rights, and was noted for enforcement particular in respect of the Oyster fisheries. Famed for his desire to develop and promote Hayling Island as a tourist destination, his aspirations led to early development of West Town. He engaged a London architect to develop 'Beachlands' with the 'Norfolk Hotel', a crescent, bath house and horse racing track.[6] The golf course on Sinah Commo was another amenity he created. He was also heavily involved in the failed attempt to run a railway over mud flats in Langstone Harbour, creating wet and dry docks at Sinah Lake. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 028676
