Kingswood Estate and Kingswood House
Kingswood House was re-built much as it is today by John Lawson Johnson in the late 1800s, and became known as Bovril Castle. Johnson, a butcher by trade, invented Bovril. In 1919 Sir William Vestey was granted an 80 year lease on the House and when he was made a Lord in 1922 he took the title Baron Vestey of Kingswood. The House became the nucleus of the Kingswood Estate in 1956. It is now a grade 2 listed mansion known as Kingswood House, but is affectionately called ‘The Castle’. It contains a library, function rooms, offices, and rooms for community events.
