The Le Flemings of Rydal Hall were a leading Cumbrian family, notable as the landlords of the poet William Wordsworth. The present collection of 15 items derive from the family papers of Barbara Le Fleming, eldest child of Roger and Ann Fleming, and sister of Sir Daniel le Fleming (c.1785-1821), 5th Baronet, who married John Benson (1780-1830) in 1809. The first five items listed below concern the 'bone of Contention' that was the will of Daniel Fleming; the next six are miscellaneous items, including three letters to Mrs Benson and a banking bill; and the last five items contain material relating to family history.

FOUR: Rev. Irving Carlyle to Mrs Barbara Benson. New Mills, near Stockport; 28 June 1837.
