It was formerly known as Linwood Grange, but the name was changed at a late date perhaps in the eighteenth century. The house was demolished in 1935. It was referred to by Trollope as 'an old Jacobean house'. {1}{2}{3} A documentary reference reveals that John Wright, who had been Rector of Edmonthorpe in Leicestershire, became a Presbyterian Minister under the patronage of Lady Bury at Linwood in Blankney parish who licensed her house at Linwood Grange. A license was held here in the late 17th century and a license was also held for John Wright's home in Leasingham.{4}
