Brief History

Hugill was previously joined with the Barony of Kendal, after the death of William de Lancastre III the Barony was divided into fees. Hugill fell under the category of the ‘Marquis fee’.Throughout the time that Kendall was separated, according to the archives retrieved and analysed by Lancaster University “The barony was partitioned between heiresses in 1247” by the 15th century the Marquis fee “came to the Crown by attainder of William Parr” This specific area that Hugill fell under the category of the Marquis fee only covered a quarter of the Kendal of Barony. According to the Lonsdale Archive, the Lowther family “accumulated extensive estates, including the Lordship of numerous manors in Cumberland and Westmorland” The Marquis fee was then “leased to the Lowther’s after 1705.”
