EDWARD VII WINGRANGEMORE HALL

SITUATIONRangemore Hall lies in a rural area of Staffordshire, about four miles west of Burton-upon-Trent. The hamlet of Rangemore was developed by Michael Thomas Bass, who resided at Rangemore Hall, to house his employees. As well as cottages for his staff, Bass went on to build Rangemore Church, licenced in 1867 and a school in 1873. Today the village is an unspoilt, popular residential area. The larger village of Barton under Needwood is less than four miles distant offering a good range of local amenities including a number of shops, pubs, restaurants and a village hall. Barton under Needwood offers good primary and secondary schools with John Taylor High School being very well regarded. There is also good private schooling nearby including Repton School, which is one of Britain’s oldest public schools, Lichfield Cathedral School and Denstone College. Rangemore Hall is well placed for access to the regional road network with the A38 being about four miles away providing a link to the M6 and M42 motorways and the A50 providing a link to the North. Lichfield Station offers a rapid mainline connection to London Euston in 1 hour and 10 minutes. Regional airports include East Midlands and Birmingham International.

HISTORYRangemore Hall was built for the Bass family and is a most impressive, Grade II listed country mansion. The King Edward VII Wing was added by Lord Burton (of the Bass brewing dynasty), in order to carry favour with King Edward VII, whom stayed here with his entourage in 1902. The Wing ultimately ended up being significantly larger than the mansion itself and the King returned in 1907 with both Queen Alexandra and his mistress Alice Keppel. Lord Burton saw a good return on his investment and was made a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order in 1904.
