Background
History
By 1614, the two villages were under the ownership of Sir James Harrington. In 1614, they were purchased by Sir Baptist Hicks along with the village of Whitwell. The villages' land later fell into the ownership of the Earls of Gainsborough. In 2016, it was decided by Rutland County Council to merge the villages of Exton and Horn. This was done on the grounds that Horn no longer existed as a village and was just a small hamlet based around a mill. On 1 April 2016, the two villages were merged to become a single parish. The village of Exton had previously been referred to as Exton (with Horn) in official records.
