bullet General Notes:

Stricklandgate House was built in 1776 for Joseph Maude, a successful merchant, bill broker and money lender.He was a cofounder of one of Kendal's first banks.

Stricklandgate House was an elegant residence. According to a census in 1787, the household comprised Joseph Maude and his wife Sarah, their nine sons and three daughters, two manservants, five maidservants, a coachman, liveryman and stablehand.

They were accommodated in a separate building, which persists today, scarcely altered but linked to the house and to the newer build at the rear.

Joseph Maude soon established himself as one of Kendal's most influential merchants. While residing at Stricklandgate House, Joseph and his wife and family, had a major influence on the social and economic development of Kendal. ²

Joseph married Sarah Holme, daughter of Thomas Holme of Kendal and Elizabeth MORLAND, in 1768.¹ (Sarah Holme was born on 16 Mar 1742 in Kendal, WES, England, UK ³ and died in 1831 ¹.)
