Middleton Hall, located in Kent, is the home of the current Baron of Middleton, Thomas Tolson, and his family. The title originally was held by the Symon family, the name dating back to 1149. The family carried this title of Baron until an unfortunate time during the 16th century where there were no direct male heirs to carry on the Symon name. It was then, in 1568, that the title passed to the then Baron's great-nephew, a George Tolson. The title of Baron Middleton has carried down the Tolson family tree for generations, ending with the current heir: Edward Tolson.

This is the home where Thomas grew up, and where the Tolson's resided for a month in 1811, prior to their journey to London. It is the house that Charlotte Tolson despises so much. Along with this property, the Tolson's also rent 17 Curzon Street, London.
