 John Long sold it in 1830 to George Watson of Erlestoke who died in 1841, and he passed it to his son Simon Watson who still owned it when he died in 1902.Among others recorded as living there are Robert Fettiplace, Montague Gore, John Parham, Robert Farquharson and Lady Violet Bonham Carter.Its use as racing stables continued into the 20th century, as it was a training establishment in 1907 when the Tilshead Lodge Estate was auctioned as part of the Erlestoke estate, and as late as 1937 it was being rented by the horse trainer Richmond Chartres Sturdy of Elston House.
