Submitted by annelisec on Sat, 01/09/2010 - 16:39

Ligoniel belonged to Francis Henry May, who as acting Governor pushed through the Peak District Reservation Ordinance in 1904.

 

"Our house on the Peak was called Ligoniel after some property in Ireland owned by my father's family."

"View from the Peak: an autobiography" by Phoebe May Witworth (2nd daughter of Frances Henry May)

Later purchased by Alexander Findlay Smith, the builder of the Peak Tram, and renamed (or rebuilt into "The Farm")
