Baron Harlech resided at Brogyntyn Hall, northwest of Oswestry, Shropshire. Home to the Ormsey-Gore family from 1815, it was abandoned circa 1985, and eventually sold by the 6th Baron Harlech in 2001. Former owner Sir Robert Owen of Brogyntyn (died 1698) was a bibliophile whose family had established a tradition of patronage of poets and writers as well as a fine collection of books and manuscripts.

Lydgate based his translation, which he began at the request of Humphrey, duke of Gloucester (youngest brother of Henry V), around 1431 and completed in 1438 or 1439, on the 1476 French version by Laurent de Premierfait. 'The long task weighed heavily even on Lydgate, who makes a number of semi-comic references to it, and at some point wrote a begging poem, the Letter to Gloucester (Minor Poems, 665-7), a witty request for funds.' (ODNB). Lydgate was to fall spectacularly from grace in the wake of his wife's arrest for practising witchcraft against Henry VI. He was arrested in 1447 and died shortly thereafter.Appended to this third edition is the first appearance of Lydgate's Daunce of Machabree, apparently the earliest printed version of the Dance of Death in English. The work is illustrated with striking woodcuts which ‘deserve to be ranked as among the best of English sixteenth century wood-engravings’ (Pforzheimer).
