Among Crowsley Park's former owners were the Baskerville family, one of whose members, Henry Baskerville, was High Sheriff of Oxfordshire in 1847. Stories about the family and its association with fierce dogs were among the inspirations for Conan Doyle's ""The Hound of the Baskervilles"" (published 1901-02) in which ""Sir Henry Baskerville"" is a leading character. The connection with the Baskervilles is preserved in statues of ""hell hounds"" with spears through their mouths which sit on the stone gateposts at the entrance"
