HistoryIn the reign of Edward II part of the manor of Denby was held by Richard, Lord Grey of Codnor, which he possessed by gift of William Rossel and Walter Bernack, representatives and co-heirs of John de Denby. Richard left his son, John de Grey the estate known as the manor of Park Hall. It remained with the Greys until at least 1443, and some stage it passed to the Frechevilles. During the reign of King Henry VIII (1509-1547) it was sold by Sir Peter Frecheville to Vincent Lowe of Denby, who settled it on his younger son. On the death of Francis Lowe without issue in c.1563, it passed to Jasper Lowe, who re-united it with the main manor of Denby
