Title of Esq (Esquire)

In 1636 George erected the present mansion-house at Quinby at a cost of 12,000 pounds. He sold the Lordship of Loseby to a Mr. Paramore. 

Quenby Hall was built in 1627. It remains a perfect and unspoiled jewel of a High Jacobean country house – the finest in Leicestershire and one of only a handful of such houses remaining in the UK. 

Quenby was built by George Ashby, and it only passed out of the Ashby family’s hands at the turn of the twentieth century.
