Bartley Manor

This house had a number of owners in the second half of the nineteenth century, including Edward Douglas, son of the Earl of Morton (owner of huge estates in Scotland), who in 1858 'purchased [this] small estate... on the borders of the New Forest, where he intends shortly to reside', and Lord Edward Spencer-Churchill. From 1884 it was the property of Captain Reginald Paynter Maitland (1851-1926) of the Royal Artillery, who passed it on to his son, Lieutenant-Colonel Reginald Charles Frederick (1882-1939).
