Summary edit

Description
English: Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust HQ, Banovallum House, Horncastle The land belong to Sir Joseph Banks. When Banovallum House was built on it in 1790, it was originally a two storey house. In 1792 it was owned by a wool and textile merchant. In 1850 it was owned by a coal merchant and he used the nearby Horncastle Navigation Canal, which was opened in 1802, to run coal between Wakefield and Horncastle. When his son took over after his death, he expanded the business to include corn, timber and a brewery.

In the late 1870s a Master Brewer and family took over tenancy and he also dealt in coal. The arrival of the railways saw the end of the canal use and it closed in 1878. The brewery family continued with the brewing industry, but leased the house for £1,000 per annum.

Joseph Banks died and the estate was divided between two aunts, the part including Banovallum House was then passed on to James Banks Stanhope. It remained in his family until becoming the property of a Lady Beryl Groves. The following two owners were both doctors, William Parkinson and one John Buchanan. In 1956, Lady Beryl Groves sold the house from the estate to Thomas Williams for £1,500.

The house then passed through several private hands, at one time being a garden centre, until it became as it is today, the Headquarters of the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust.
