Kentmeer Hall did a long time belong to the antient

family of the Gilpins, which was sold of late by Chr.

Gilpin Esq., whose arms are - Or, a boar passant sable

armed gules. Richard Gilpin, in the time of King John,

was enfeoffed in the Lordship of Kentmere by the then

Baron of Kendale, and he slew a wild boar that raged in

the mountains adjoining, whence it was that the Gilpins

have a boar for their coat.
