there with his sister Grace
Farndale who also never married. They lived much of their lives at Kilton Lodge. They retired from Kilton in 1940 and went to live at Redlands, Redcar where they both died. They had such
records as existed from Kilton which were
copied. (Letters).

1903
By 1903 he had joined the Cleveland Hunt and regularly joined
their meets.
He was
a part of the Cleveland Hunt by 1903. The Daily
Gazette for Middlesbrough, 9 November 1903: CLEVELAND HUNT. Beautiful weather favoured today's meet at
the Cleveland Hunt. The party drew up in front of the Zetland Hotel, and among
those who indulged in a fine morning sport were... Mr
George Farndale (Kilton)... The hound in charge of Mr Gibson drew off into
Saltburn gardens...
1905
The Stockton Herald, South Durham and Cleveland Advertiser, 21
January 1905: the
Cleveland Foxhounds met in front of the Red Lion hotel, Redcar, on Saturday,
and afterwards dispersed in the direction of Kirkleatham. There was not a large
muster of horsemen. Amongst those who assembled, in addition to the Master (Mr
W H A Wharton) were... Mr. J [sic, G] Farndale, Kilton...
‘J’
is often used for George in articles, where this must have been referring to
George. Perhaps there was a reason for him often being referred to as ‘J’.
The Stockton Herald, South Durham and Cleveland Advertiser, 16
December 1905: THE
CLEVELAND HOUNDS. In fine bracing weather the Cleveland hounds met at Saltburn
on Monday, and a large number of mounted and foot
followers gathered in front of the Zetland hotel for the event. Amongst those
on horseback, or in carriages were Mr W H A Wharton MFH, Miss Wharton, Squire Newcomen,... Mr Geo Farndale … Hazelgrove Wood was the first
cover tried...
1907

1909
The Whitby
Gazette, 5 November 1909: DEATH OF MR J R ROBINSON. IMPRESSIVE FUNERAL AT
LOFTUS. The death occurred on Thursday afternoon, last week, at his residence,
Zetland Road, Loftus, at the age of seventy five
years, of Mr John Rowland Robinson, head of the old established and well known Messrs Robinson Brothers, ironfounders
etc … The chief mourners were … Mr G Farndale … .
George was the first chief mourner listed after the Robinson family themselves,
so he must have some close relationship to the Robinson family (though I’m not
aware of a Robinson marrying into this part of the family).
1910
George
in about 1910
1911
Charles was working
in partnership with his son, George by 1911. The 1911
Census recorded
that Charles Farndale, 73, farmer, still lived at Stank House, Brotton
with Ann Farndale, 63 ; George Farndale,
farmer’s son and partner, 34; Mary E Farndale, 33, farmer’s
daughter, dairywork; Grace Farndale, farmer’s
daughter, dairywork; Albert Farndale, architect and
two others working on farm.
George joined the
subscription to relieve striking miners in 1911. The Tees-Side Weekly Herald, 6 April 1912: FINE RESPONSE IN CLEVELAND. The
appeal for funds to relieve distress in the Cleveland mining area,
irrespective of the occupation followed by the people, has been very generous,
for inquiries on Saturday showed that the amount received by Alderman Hobbs and
Mr Stephens, the secretary and treasurer, roughly totals £1,000. This, of
course, does not include the many gifts in kind which the sub communities have
received during the past fortnight. Such a liberal answer by the public to the
committee's appeal is exceedingly gratifying. Up to the present the claims upon
the fund had not been large, but with little or no strike pay from the miners association during the next few weeks, it is felt
that there will be a considerable increase in the number of cases of distress
to be relieved by the various subcommittees. As a rule
adults received 2s each, with 9d each for dependent children, and every case is
being taken to prevent overlapping. The following is a second list of
subscribers... Mr G Farndale (Kilton) £2 0s 0d …

The impact of the war was
reflected in the meeting of the hunt committee on 22 February 1916. The Daily Gazette for Middlesbrough, 23 February 1916: THE
CLEVELAND HUNT. Mrs Wharton, Skelton Castle, in the absence of her husband,
Colonel Wharton, the Master, who is now on military duties, last evening
presided at a meeting of the Cleveland Hunt Committee at Guisborough, where Mr
Joseph F Whitwell, Langbaurgh Hall, Ayton, was elected to act as secretary
until the next general meeting of the members. The vacancy was caused by the
death of Mr H Mosman. Mr George Farndale, Kilton, Mr W Scarth, Carlton, and Mr
Hustler-Hustler, Acklam Hall, were chosen members of the committee as
successors to the late Major Clive Dixon, Mr J Maughan, who has left the

1923
The Yorkshire Post, 12 April 1923: POINT TO POINT RACES. CLEVELAND MEETING REVIVED. After a
lapse of 11 years the Cleveland Hunt Point to Point races were revived
yesterday, and the event proved a great success. The course chosen, between
Great Ayton and Kildale, is in the midst of delightful
scenery. The overnight rain had left small pools on some of the neighbouring
highways, and the fields were sodden, but though the low
lying clouds held the promise of a further downpour, there was a
gathering of about 3,000 people in the fields adjacent to Holy Hill Farm, near
Easby, and they were rewarded with excellent sport. There were only four races,
but the fields were large and the aggregate number of runners being 36 and in
two cases very close finishes added to the excitement....Among
those present were... The committee consisting of...Mr G Farndale …

BUT GOOD SPORT. Despite heavy snowstorms all the morning there was an excellent
attendance at the Cleveland Hunt Point to Point meeting, which was held at
Easby, near Great Ayton, yesterday. Intermittent snow storms
continued right up to the first race, and there were sleet showers during the
afternoon, the weather being piercingly cold, which sadly interfered with the
comfort of the visitors.... Major R B Turton acted as judge, Mr J F Whitwell, starter,
Mr G Farndale, clerk of the scale...

1926
The Cleveland Standard, 4 December 1926: FOX GIVES THEM A GOOD RUN IN THE
DISTRICT. Followers of the Cleveland Hounds experienced
a very exciting chase the other day and, had dark darkness not set in, no doubt
a kill would have been recorded. A very fine fox was put up in a covert
near Moorsholm, and making his way towards the village, with the hounds hot on
his trail, Reynard passed close to the Plough Inn. He made a sharp detour in
the direction of Kilton, and from thence on to little Moorsholm. By this time
the only horsemen anywhere near the hounds were Mr T S Patch, Mr G Farndale and
the huntsmen. The fox rushed into the yard of Messrs Pease and Partners’ Lingdale Mine, and then
raced over the high refuse shale heap adjoining the mine. From Lingdale the chase continued to Boosbeck, and the quarry
sought refuge in the gardens of Boosbeck Vicarage. The fox jumped the garden
fence and again got away, and after running along Boosbeck station platform,
and through the football field, Reynard escaped, as hounds, owing to darkness,
were called off.
1927
In the period from Michaelmas to 31 December 1927 the rent paid at Kilton

1 rood and 34 perches, £2 12s 0d) and the Old Railway (£2 10s 0d).
An acre was the primary unit of land area. A rood was a
quarter of an acre. A perch was a 160th of an acre or
a 40th of a rood.
The Newcastle Daily Chronicle, 6 November 1928: FOX
ELUDES ITS PURSUERS. EXCITING SCENE AT SALTBURN. PROMENADE HUNT. OPENING MEET
OF THE CLEVELAND PACK. Two exciting incidents marked the opening meet of the
Cleveland hunt, held yesterday in the picturesque grounds of Skelton hall. The House of the senior “Quartermaster” of
the Hunt, Colonel W H A Wharton, the castle is surrounded by a fine wooded park
and the imposing building with its background of rich autumn tinted trees afforded
in admirable setting for the large gathering of scarlet clad black hatted
riders. A fox which broke cover from Saltburn Gill led the hunt along the
Saltburn Promenade. Out of the Gill the fox passed through the grounds of Rushpool Hall - through the pleasure gardens,
and emerged on the promenade near the top of Saltburn Beck. After
running for several yards along the promenade, it finally eluded its pursuers
by going to earth in a drain. Mrs Weil, wife of Captain Weil, of Boosbeck, was riding
through a gateway when a closing gate caused her horse to shy and the rider was
jammed against the gate post. Mrs Weil was conveyed to her home suffering from
a broken leg... Others present included... Mr George Farndale and
Miss Farndale, Kilton Lodge.

number. Redcar had found the feminist advice of great value in civic matters.
He had no doubt that Saltburn was doing likewise, for he knew the work that
Councillor Mrs Pilkington had done, and was prepared to
do. Councillor Mrs Pilkington, declaring the grounds open, said that Mr and Mrs
Kerridge had every reason to be proud of their gardens. She paid tribute to

How does George Farndale relate to the modern
family? George Farndale was a central figure in the
extended family at Kilton in the early twentieth century. He did not marry
and has no descendants. However those who trace
their ancestry through the Kilton
1 Line are likely to be relatively closely related to George. |
