Warkworth House and the nearby Warkworth Crescent in Newburn are not named for the Northumberland town of that name. Newburn manor, with all its regalities, was given by King John to Robert, son of Roger de Clavering, Baron of Warkworth. John, the last Lord Clavering, granted the reversion of it to the crown, and Edward III gave it to Henry Lord Percy, from whom it has descended to the present proprietor.
