They had no children, and he died in 1838, and left his wife a life interest in the house. In 1839, she married the future Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, and they lived there until her death in 1872.Later residents include Thomas Agar-Robartes, 6th Viscount Clifden from 1889 to 1896, and Arthur Hornby Lewis, iron-master, from 1900 to 1926.
