The main family line had seats at Mitford Castle, Mitford Old Manor House and from 1828, the then-newly-built Mitford Hall. Several heads of the family served as High Sheriff of Northumberland. This is a junior line, with seats at Newton Park, Northumberland and Exbury House, Hampshire. The line descends via the historian William Mitford. The Mitford family was twice elevated to the British peerage, in 1802 and 1902, under the title Baron Redesdale. |
