[edit] Gough-Calthorpe family

Is Calthorpe Park related to the Gough-Calthorpe family? (There's a Calthorpe Park in Birmingham, too.) Andy Mabbett 09:10, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I believe Sir Euan Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe lives fairly locally. Land belonging to the family may have been purchased to build the Calthorpe Park housing estate on which the school is built. (MatthewMain 14:46, 24 March 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Vandalism
