Feudal Lord & Baron of England
Lord of Blakewell is a manorial title of England. The current holder of the title is Jörg Hubert Dumke de Newmarch, 6th Baron of North Cadbury. The Baron holds the legal rights to the Lordship of Blakewell. The Manor of Blakewell in Marwood Parish, in the county of Devon, is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Blachewilla, Blakewille, meaning ‘black stream or spring’ and dates back to King Edward the Confessor. He was the first Lord of Blakewell in 1066. It was apparently owned directly by the King and therefore a Royal Manor - the King's Manor. In 1411, during the reign of Henry IV, Thomas Pyllond holds the Manor and was 10th Lord of Blakewell.
Thereafter, the Lordship was held in dormancy by extinct private ownership, before being rediscovered and claimed by a researcher in 2009 and re-created by legal process and passed on to its next successors in 2010.
In 2010, Jörg Hubert and Regina became the rightful successors and owners of the Lordship title and 11th Lord and Lady of the Manor of Blakewell. The right to the title has been created by legal process by a leading authority of the realm and transferred by authenticated Deed of Conveyance, to the current and 6th Baron and Baroness of North Cadbury, in compliance with the Honours (Prevention of Abuses) Act 1925 (Hatton Solicitors).
The hereditary Lordship title, is not a title of the peerage (peerage privileges or parliamentary standing), but rather a title of the feudal nobility. It originated under feudalism and enshrined in English law as an 'incorporeal hereditament'.
