The name Maulds Meaburn goes back to the 12th century. The King at the time, Henry II, gave part of the lands of Meaburn to Sir Hugh de Morville, and the other part to his sister, Maud de Veteripont. Sir Hugh eventually fell out of favour with the King, after which the King reclaimed Sir Hugh's section of the land, and this area from here on became known as Kings Meaburn. The land that belonged to Maud remains known as called Maulds Meaburn.[1]
The village changed hands over the years and after it was owned by the Veteriponts it passed to the families of Frauncey and then Vernon.[2]
Flass House, on the south side of the village, is a picturesque mansion, built 1851-3 in Italianate style. It was the home of Lancelot Dent who was involved in the opium trade.[3] In 2015, the current owner of Flass House was convicted, along with several other men, of drug offences, where Flass House was used as a 'cannabis farm'.[4]
Geographyedit
The village is situated on either side of the Lyvennet Beck.[5] Maulds Meaburn is part of the Crosby RavensworthParish.[6]
