    « Middleton Hall is a large castle-like edifice, in ruins, excepting a small part occupied by a farmer. It has a chapel in it. In 1692 Mr. Machel found the arms in the hall so much defaced that he could only make out one single coat; which was an impaling of Middleton and Lowther. The park was destroyed in 1640. It was in the barony of Kendal; was conveyed, in 1279, by Richard de Preston, to Henry de Kennet, who probably took the name of De Middleton, in which it continued till the reign of Charles II. when it fell to two daughters, Bridget and Mary, a daughter of the latter of whom had part of the demesne, and married Giles Moor, Esq. of Grimeshill in this parish, who, by the mere force of genius and application, without the help of a University education, was profoundly learned, not only in the history and antiquities of our own country; but in the ancient Grecian and Roman literature, and was critically skilled even in the Hebrew language: his descendants are still seated at Grimeshill. The hall, manor, and other part of the demesne of Middleton, were sold to Benjamin Middleton, whose son sold them to Dr. Adam Askew, grandfather of Anthony Linacre Askew, a colonel in the guards, and their present proprietor. »
