So that I'm clear, is this a reference to the Huntley Manor in the Forest? i.e. the one in the Huntley/Longhope/Newent area? If it isn't then please disregard all the following!

The Manor of Huntley was originally in the ownership of Henry, Duke of Kent (d. 1740). Some time before that it was sold to the Probyn family and remained in their ownership until 1884. At that point it was sold into the Ackers family where it remained for the next hundred years. The modern house was built around 1862 but extensive alterations commenced in 1885 and continued, on and off, for many years after that. I'm not aware of any occupation by a family with the name of Huntley. However, there was a Huntley family who occupied the Boxwell Court, a short distance from Dursley (and hence Slimbridge) and who may have taken their name from the Lordship of Huntley in earlier days.
