brother Miles, a regular soldier then commanding the 20th Hussars, having first joined the Coldstream Guards. In 1893 Miles married Ethel, daughter and heiress of Sir Charles Henry Tempest of Broughton Hall, Skipton, and Heaton in Lancashire. She brought to Carlton many of the most interesting pictures and her fortune saved the house and remaining estate. The 10th Lord Beaumont was tragically killed in a shooting accident, only three years after inheriting. He was succeeded by his eldest daughter, Mona, who was then only a year old. She married in 1914, the 3rd Lord Howard of Glossop, great-grandson of the 13th Duke of Norfolk who until his death in 1972 was heir presump tive to the dukedom. They had eight children, ‘the eight M’s: Miles, Michael, Mariegold, Martin, Miriam, Miranda, Mirable and Mark. Lady Beaumont owned Carlton for 76 years, a period, which saw two world wars and great social changes. In the Second World War the house was used as an auxiliary military hospital but suffered little damage and was carefully restored to its original condition afterwards at a time when many other large Victorian houses were being demolished. Her eldest son, Miles Francis Stapleton Fitzalan Howard, inherited both the Beaumont and Howard of Glossop baronies and in 1975 succeeded his cousin as 17th Duke of Norfolk and Earl Marshal of England. The 17th Duke of Norfolk was born in 1915 and is married to Anne Mary Constable Maxwell, a great grand daughter of the 10th Baron Herries. They have two sons and three daughters: Edward William, Earl of Arundel and Surrey; Lord Gerald Fitzalan Howard; Lady Tessa Balfour; Lady Carina Frost and Lady Marcia Ryecart. Lord Gerald Fitzalan Howard, his wife Emma and their children, Arthur, Florence and Grace now live at Carlton Towers. The House The Exterior: The overwhelming Victorian exterior of Carlton is due to two men, Henry, 9th Lord Beaumont, and his architect, Edward Welby Pugin, son of the more famous Augustus Welby Pugin.
