Description From Owner:
  • In 1759 Col. Winckworth Tonge and Henry and George Scott received a 2,500-acre grant at Five Houses and a month later Winckworth, William and George Tonge received a 1,500-acre grant.
  • From parts of these grants Winckworth created his estate he called Winckworth. By 1828 the name had become corrupted to Winkworth and eventually it became Wentworth.
