Kimbolton Castle
Kimbolton, Huntingdonshire - Duke of Manchester
"The east side of the county is adorned with the castle of Kinnibantum, now Kimbolton,
anciently the seat of the Mandevilles, afterwards of the Bohuns and Staffords, and then of
the Wingfields.
Sir Richard Wingfield married Katharine, daughter of Richard, Earl Rivers,
and widow of Henry Stafford, Duke of Buckingham, after whose attainder he obtained a
grant of Kimbolton Castle and Lordship from Henry the Eighth. His son, Sir James,
sold Kimbolton to Sir Henry Montagu, afterwards first Earl of Manchester, whose
lineal descendant, the present Duke of Manchester, is now owner."
