Great Fulford
Great Fulford is an historic estate in the parish of Dunsford, Devon. The grade I listed〔(Listed building text )〕 manor house, known as Great Fulford House, is about 9 miles west of Exeter. Its site was said in 1810 to be "probably the most antient in the county".〔Prince, p.395, 1810 footnote 5 (1810)〕 The present mansion house is Tudor (16th century) with refurbishment from the late 17th century and further remodelling from about 1800.〔Listed building text〕 The prefix "Great" dates from the late 17th century and served to distinguish it from the mansion house known as "Little Fulford"〔later known as Shobrooke Park, which was destroyed by fire in 1947.(Pevsner, p.729)〕 in the parish of Shobrooke, Devon, about 8 miles to the north-east, also owned briefly by Col. Francis III Fulford (1666-1700), as a result of his marriage to the heiress of the Tuckfield family. Great Fulford has been the residence of the Fulford family (originally "de Fulford"), which took its name from the estate, from the reign of King Richard I (1189-1199) to the present day. There are thus few, if any, families in Devonshire of more ancient recorded origin still resident at their original seat.〔Contenders might be the Coffin family of Portledge, which moved away recently; The Courtenay family feudal barons of Okehampton, surviving as Earls of Devon at Powderham Castle; the Kelly family of Kelly, still resident at Kelly House; The Fortescue family of Whympston, Modbury, surviving until recently in the male line as Earl Fortescue of Castle Hill, Filleigh; The Incledon family of Incledon, Braunton, surviving in a female line there and at adjacent Buckland, Braunton. In England as a whole, the Berkeley family have lived in Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire since the reign of King Henry II (1154-1189) and continue to do so in 2015 in a direct male line〕 In 2004 the estate comprised 3,000 acres (1200 ha).〔Fulford, Francis, ''Bearing Up'', 2004, p.122〕
==Descent==
The descent of the estate was as follows:〔Burke's Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Landed Gentry, 15th Edition, ed. Pirie-Gordon, H., London, 1937, pp.847-8, pedigree of Fulford of Fulford.〕
