Manors Appearing in the Lonsdale (Lowther) Archive

Although the Lowthers were lords of many of the manors in this list, others appear because the Lowthers had lands, tenants or other interests in another lord's manor. The subheadings (e.g. D Lons L5) refer to relevant series names/numbers in the Lonsdale archive, housed at Cumbria Record Office, Carlisle. Online catalogues can be consulted via the Access to Archives website.
