In 1963 Norton Grange and its 12 acre gardens, were purchased for £12,000 by zoologist Molly Badham, who founded Twycross Zoo (at first known as The East Midlands Zoological Society) in the rectory's gardens.
After the purchase of the Grange, Badham and Evans converted the 12 acres of gardens, outbuildings, stables and farm buildings into a zoo.
