  • Hopton Hall ist ein Landhaus aus dem 18. Jahrhundert in Hopton in der englischen Grafschaft Derbyshire. Das Gebäude ist in der britischen Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest gelistet. Die Familie Gell besaß bereits im 14. Jahrhundert ausgedehnte Ländereien in Derbyshire. In der heutigen Ortschaft Hopton ließ im 16. Jahrhundert Thomas Gell ein elisabethanisches Herrenhaus errichten. Das Gebäude das dem Ort seinen Namen gab, war und ist von einer großzügigen Parkanlage umgeben. Unter John Gell wurde das Haus erweitert und umgebaut. Außerdem erweiterte er den Garten und war Bauherr eines Sommerhauses am Anwesen. Im frühen 20. Jahrhundert kamen zwei Pavillons hinzu. Vor wenigen Jahren wurde das Anwesen komplett renoviert und um 4,2 Millionen englische Pfund verkauft. (de)
  • Hopton Hall is an 18th-century country house at Hopton, near Wirksworth, Derbyshire. It is a Grade II listed building. The Manor of Hopton, anciently the seat of the de Hopton family, was acquired by the Gell family in 1553 by Ralph Gell (1491–1564) who also purchased lands at Darley Abbey and Rocester. John Gell was created a baronet in 1642 (see Gell baronets).The Baronetcy was extinct in 1719 and the estate passed to John Eyre in 1732 via his mother Katherine Gell, daughter of 2nd baronet John Gell, at which point Eyre added the surname of Gell. The house has its origins in the 16th century when it was built by Thomas Gell as a two-storey, three-bay manor house. It was extended and remodelled by Philip Eyre Gell in the late 18th century. The north entrance front has three storeys and seven bays, flanked by tower wings with pyramidal roofs. Notable members of the Gell family include Philip Gell's younger brother, Admiral John Gell and Philip's son Sir William Gell. Philip Gell's daughter and heir married William Pole Thornhill MP, on whose death the estate passed to his kinsman Henry Pole, later known as Henry Chandos-Pole-Gell (High Sheriff of Derbyshire) in 1886. The estate of some 3,700 acres (15 km2) was broken up in the 20th century, a major part being sold to a water authority for the creation of Carsington Reservoir. The house itself was put up for auction in 1989, passing out of the family. The present owner is Sir Bill Thomas and his family, a former senior vice president of Hewlett-Packard Europe who was drafted in by Ed Miliband to chair Labour's "small business taskforce". Thomas and his wife Julie have opened their formal gardens and lake to the public during February and early March for the woodland Snowdrop Walk and during the summer to the Rose Garden. Both periods allow access to the 30 acres (12 ha) of grounds and 2 km (1.2 mi) of signposted paths. The document collection of the Gell family of Hopton Hall is held by the Derbyshire Record Office.
