HE Manor of Haddon is situated in the parish of 



Bakewell, and it was anciently within that lordship, 



as appears from the following extract from the 



Domesday Survey: — "King Edward had in the 



Manor of Bakewell i8 carucates, with 8 vills or hamlets. The 



King (William) has now in demesne 7 carucates, with 33 villains, 



* We are very greatly indebted to Mr. Carrington for this original and 

 most valuable history of Haddon derived immediately from the archives of 

 His Grace the Duke of Rutland, at Belvoir, and never before printed. 

 There is but one small jiaragraph relating to the history of the Manor in 

 Lyson's, and not quite two pages more devoted to the architectural features 

 of the fabric ; but here we have an almost exhaustive account which none 

 but the archivist of the family could have produced, and it is our great 

 privilege, as the County Archoeological Society, to publish the History of 

 Ilad.lon and its distinguished lords in a form more worthy of the famous 

 house and its illustrious owners. 



The author writes: — "I had all the various and conflicting accounts of 

 the descent of Haddon to deal with, and it would have been a hopeless 

 undertaking had I not accumulated a large amount of documentary evidence, 

 extending over a number of years, to aid me." — Editor.
