Kings Newton
Kings Newton is a village in South Derbyshire. The Holy well (pictured) was constructed around 1660, but has been refurbished at the end of the twentieth century.〔(Living Springs journal. Accessed 29 January 2007 )〕
==History==
Unlike many villages in Derbyshire, Kings Newton is not mentioned in the Domesday book and is a "new town". Originally the hamlet was called Newton but the prefix of ''Kings'' was added to differentiate it from other ''Newtons'' in the surrounding counties.
After the successful campaign at the Battle of Sobraon, Henry Hardinge was created Viscount Hardinge of Lahore and of King's Newton in Derbyshire, with a pension of £3000 for three lives. Why this small village was chosen for his honour is unclear.
The hall illustrated was built in 1560 and was extensively damaged by fire in 1859.〔('Kings Newton village in South Derbyshire: Information and photos' ) ''Derbyshire UK'', accessed 2009-08-16〕 It was fully restored in 1910 by Cecil Paget and his first wife. The illustration is from a book of poetry by local naturalist, John Joseph Briggs, whose poem about the Trent was the title of his poetry book.
