Abstract: |
An historic building assessment was carried out on Hunter's Lodge, Horninglow Road, Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, for Staffordshire County Council. Hunter's Lodge was built as a substantial house of comparatively modest pretensions, probably around 1835, for a farmer, John Lathbury. Circa 1855 it was remodelled and enlarged with the addition of a substantial dining room and a porch possibly for Henry B. Leigh Esq. In 1880 the house was acquired by a hop merchant, George Lathbury, probably a son of John Lathbury, who had lived at Hunter's Lodge in the 1840s. Around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries George Lathbury further enlarged the property by adding a billiard room, ablution block, new service wing and several more bedrooms. He also built a new stable and coach house. The structural development of Hunter's Lodge, and rise to prominence of the Lathbury family, reflects the transformation of Burton upon Trent, in the latter half of the 19th century, from small market town into the Mecca of the brewing industry, and the wealth that it engendered, and prosperity it bestowed upon the local population. |
