1850
Henry Vane, 2nd Duke of Cleveland (1789-1864) inherited Raby Castle in 1842 when he was 53 years old. The following year he employed William Burn to alter and extend the castle. This was carried out between 1843 and 1847. Then, in 1850, Burn provided the design for the family mausoleum on a piece of land bordering the churchyard at Staindrop.
