Sinai Park House
Sinai Park House

Sinai Park House is a grade II* listed building in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, England. Consisting of a central range with two wings the building is sited on a ridge of high ground near a chalybeate spring. The earliest remains of the site date to the 13th-century and it was occupied by the de Scobenhal family before being donated to Burton Abbey. The house was used as a place of convalescence for monks recovering from blood-letting procedures and its original name "seyney house" derived from the Old French "seyne" for blood. The estate was increased by enclosure and used as a hunting ground for the abbot. Much of the estate and house were let out by the early 16th century. The estate came into the hands of the Paget family after the Dissolution of the Monasteries. The Pagets used it for hunting and let out part of the estate to farmers. The house adopted its modern name of Sinai by the end of the 18th-century, a biblical reference. The estate was sold to pay off the debts of the eccentric Henry Paget, 5th Marquess of Anglesey and by 1918 was used as a cooperative society farm. The house later served as billets for Royal Air Force personnel and was split into cottages before being abandoned due to a contaminated water supply. It was used by a farmer as a house for pigs and chickens before being sold in 1995 to the current owner who has renovated one wing of the house. Planning permission has been granted to restore further parts of the estate and install an outdoor classroom.
