Horsley puts here [roman fort, Netherby] CASTRA EXPLORATORUM. The rev. Mr. Graham's house stands on the site of the station, on a rising ground washed by the Esk; and the country round him is a creation of his own. From a barren wild it became as rich as the rest which environed it. By the irruption of Solway moss, 1769, a tract worth £.400. a year was reduced to a bog. This estate passed from the Stutevilles to the Wakes, and was granted as debateable land by James I. to Francis Clifford, earl of Cumberland, who sold it to Nicholas Graham, master of the horse to the duke of Buckingham, and of the prince's party in his Spanish journey. He was left for dead at the battle of Edgehill, but survived to 1653. His grandson George was created by Charles II. viscount Preston in the kingdom of Scotland, and being convicted of treason for attempting to escape to James II. in France, was pardoned, and died 1695 at Nunnington, his estate in Yorkshire, where he was succeeded by his grandson Charles; who dying without issue 1739, was succeeded by his two aunts, coheirs of William. Catherine surviving was married to William lord Widdrington, and dying 1757 without issue, devised the estate to the rev. Robert Graham, M.A. second son of her uncle William Graham, dean of Carlisle and of Wells, owner 1775 of this vast tract of country, and rector of the two churches of Asthurst and Kirkandrews upon Esk. He died, and was succeeded by his son sir James Graham. A writer in the Gent. Mag. LV. 844. observes that by draining, manuring, and planting, this worthy gentleman improved his estate in 16 years from £.2000. per annum, to £.10,000. and even £.13,000 per annum, so that if his son pursues his plan it will amount to £.20,000 per annum clear. He first drained and improved 1000 acres, then erected villages of eight or ten houses, with a number of acres to each, and let them to his industrious married neighbours rent free for one or two years or more till they could pay, besides erecting churches and inns, and a very handsome commodious house for himself, where the most liberal hospitality presided. | ||

story |
Anthony Berry Rudge age 45, James Martin alias John White
age 36, James Baker also known as John age 29, and a fourth
man, a gang from London, carried out a burglary at Netherby
in the evening of 28 October 1885. They only took some
jewelry, probably being disturbed by a passing housemaid.
The burglary was discovered quickly; the police at Longtown
were informed, and a chase began.
About 11pm they were confronted at Kingstown by Sergeant John Rhodes, and PC Jacob Johnstone, of the Cumberland and Westmorland Constabulary. Both constables were shot and wounded. Another posse of constables were warded off by threats of shooting. Eventually they were approached near Plumpton Wall by PC Joseph Byrnes, whom they shot and killed. There is a memorial to him in the village. Three of the gang were caught, and hanged at Carlisle. | |

Netherby and also The Mote are shown on different maps north
