Baronetcy in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom
The Greenwell Baronetcy, of Marden Park in Godstone in the County of Surrey and Greenwell in Wolsingham in the County of Durham, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 19 July 1906 as part of the King's Birthday Honours for the stockbroker Walpole Greenwell.[1][2] The Greenwell family has owned the Gedgrave estate in Suffolk since the 1930s,[3] and has land in Inverness-shire.[citation needed] The baronetical Greenwells were a junior line of a family of Durham gentry, and were for generations resident at Corbridge, Northumberland; in 1890, Sir Walpole Lloyd Greenwell, 1st Baronet purchased the Greenwell property granted to the family before 1183 from a daughter of the senior line of the Greenwell family.[4][5]
