The Royal Agricultural Society at Darlington: Hummersknott, residence of Mr. Arthur Pease, with part of the show, 1895. 'The Royal Agricultural Society's Show, the fifty-seventh since the establishment of the society, is being held this year at Darlington, where it opens to-day, June 22. The ground for the show has been given by Mr. Arthur Pease, J.P., at his residence of Hummersknott, about two miles to the west of Darlington. Darlington is the headquarters of the Pease family, who for at least three generations have been well known for the interest they have all taken in every philanthropic and benevolent movement. The brothers Edward and Joseph Pease carried on in the early part of the century a large woollen manufacturing business at Darlington - they being the third generation of the same name and family to whom it had descended - and the family still continue this, combined with other branches of industry. The prosperity of Darlington may be said to have resulted from the prosperity of the Pease family...The show will continue until June 28'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
