Thus in 1704 Thomas Minton, son of the Thomas who had died in 1674, became owner of the whole manor.

The last named died in 1765 leaving a widow Sarah (d. 1789), who had a life interest in his estate, and three young daughters, Anne, Priscilla who married Thomas Beddoes of Cheney Longville in 1773, and Mary who married Delabere Pritchett of Brimfield (Herefs.) in 1777.

Beddoes was lord. He died in 1870 leaving his estate to his widow Laura Seraphina as his 'executrix for life' and trustee; she died in 1890. (fn. 53) The estate descended to the Beddoeses' eldest son W. F. Beddoes, a barrister, on whose death without issue in 1928 it passed to his nephew E. W. Minton Beddoes. (fn. 54) When the latter died in 1952 his executors immediately offered Minton House (formerly White Birches) for sale with c. 208 a., and later that year c. 1,360 a. of settled estate was offered for sale, though without mention of any manorial rights. (fn. 55) E. W. Minton Beddoes's son and heir S. W. Minton Beddoes, who sold Minton hill common to the National Trust in 1965, (fn. 56) remained lord of the manor in 1969.
