Revell connections in northern England

If your researches into Revell family history lead you anywhere near northern England, this may interest you.
I am the current owner of the house your ancestors may have lived in.
It's called Revell Grange, and is near Sheffield in South Yorkshire (close to the Derbyshire border). The house is thought to date from around 1495 and has a well-recorded place in local history.
We have some records which we found when we bought the house, naming Revell family members living there as early as the 16th century. As far as we know, the last Revell to live there was a Col. Sutton Revell, who died in the 1950s. If anyone thinks the information I have will be of use, I will be happy to share it with them.
