Newdigate Family

Sir Richard Newdigate, 2nd Baronet, who purchased the Astley estate in 1674, was the owner of the adjoining Arbury estate into which the Astley estate was incorporated. 

The Arbury estate eventually passed to the 4th and 5th Baronets, grandsons of the 2nd Baronet and after their death to a great nephew of the 3rd Baronet, Francis Parker Newdigate.  

The estate has remained in that family ever since, and although it has on occasion passed down the female line, the Newdigate and/or Newdegate name has been adopted by successive generations.
