Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Octavo. Hardcover / Original Publisher's flexible leather-bound bible with two letters and several photographs loosely inserted. Very good condition with only minor signs of wear. Howard Lloyd (1837–1920) was a prominent figure associated with Grafton Manor in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, serving as a Justice of the Peace (J.P.) and General Manager of Lloyds Bank. He lived at the historic Elizabethan Manor House "Grafton Manor", which features a private chapel dating back to 970AD and is now operated as a boutique hotel and wedding venue. Background: Born in Poole, Dorset, on August 16, 1837, Howard Lloyd was a key figure in the management of Lloyds Bank. Residence: He resided at Grafton Manor, a historic, L-shaped Elizabethan manor house located near Bromsgrove. Family: He married Mariabella Howard in 1867; she was the daughter of John Eliot Howard. Manor History: The manor itself has a long history, previously owned by the Earls of Shrewsbury and hosting royal figures over the centuries. (Wikipedia) Grafton Manor (13 miles north-east of Worcester and 2 1/2 miles south-west of Bromsgrove, Worcestershire) was established before the Norman Conquest. Grafton means "settlement at or near the wood" and may indicate a role in woodland management within a larger estate, for instance. For a time, in the reigns of Henry II to Edward I, it was subject to forest law as part of the Forest of Feckenham. The Lords of the Manor were influential figures in medieval and early modern Worcestershire, with a number becoming High Sheriffs or Members of Parliament for Worcestershire. A few were also national figures, especially the Talbots and Earls of Shrewsbury. Grafton was connected with Catholic worship in the County after the Reformation. The house is now a listed building in the modern Civil parish of Dodford with Grafton in the Bromsgrove District of Worcestershire. (Wikipedia).
