About Fencing in Hinton St George
Hinton St George in Somerset appears in the Domesday Book under the name Hanstone and remained a feudal village into the 20th century, with its manor passing to the Poulett family in the 1400s, who held it continuously until the Hinton Estate was finally sold in 1968. The village still gathers around its medieval heart, including the 13th century Church of St George and a Grade II listed preaching cross that once marked the centre of the village. Hinton House, the seat of the Poulett family since the time of Henry VII, has a garden front designed by the renowned architect Inigo Jones and stands within a park of around 600 acres. In 1863 the village became the first in England to be lit by gas, and its cricket club, formed in 1827, remains the second oldest in Somerset.
