Stackpole Estate, National Trust, Pembrokeshire. Stackpole Court. Various families that have owned Stackpole in the past include the de Stackpoles, the Vernons and the Stanleys. The Lort family, agents to the Stanleys bought the estate in the 17th century. The Lort family took the side of King Charles I in the English Civil War but quickly found themselves on the losing side and Stackpole was besieged by Parliamentarians. Legend has it that Roger Lort hid in a cave near Barafundle Bay to avoid being captured. After a short siege the Lorts surrendered.
Elizabeth Lort was the heiress of the Stackpole Estate and she married Alexander Campbell of Cawdor in 1689.
The Campbells built the early Georgian mansion of Stackpole Court in the Palladian style in the 1730s on the site of the earlier fortified house.
Sir John Campbell II inherited the estate in 1777 and began landscaping work on a grand scale. What was once a valley was later flooded to create the Bosherston Lakes, as part of a designed landscape, and thousands of trees were planted.
Two world wars heralded a century of decline at Stackpole. Half of the estate, around 6,000 acres, was requisitioned by the Ministry of Defence to form Castlemartin Range in 1938.
Soldiers billeted in Stackpole Court caused devastating damage to the house by stripping lead from the roof, causing dry and wet rot.After the war ended the Campbells decided to move back to their Scottish estates and leave Stackpole for good.
The once-beautiful Georgian mansion was pulled down in 1963 and the stone was used to build the Milford Haven oil refinery. The estate was broken up and sold in pieces, but the woods, lakes, and coast passed to the care of the National Trust.
The Stackpole mural depicts chemical, steel mill, cannery, news gathering, packaging line and other workers as cogs in the machines of industry. As a tribute the mural is compositionally very similar to Rivera's first sketch (all that Stackpole would have seen) for the recently destroyed Rockefeller Center mural.
