A Lexington man is suing WTVQ-TV and its owner, Scripps Media, over Fayette County property that the television station has leased since 1967. Stephen K. Justice is asking a judge for a declaratory judgment allowing him to terminate WTVQ’s lease to the 20-acre site off Bryant Road, near Winchester Road.

The Storied Pastures of Castleton Farm Are Going Up for Auction
The breeding of Thoroughbreds at Castleton Lyons—better known as Castleton Farm—is a tradition that dates back to George Washington’s presidency. Since politician John Breckinridge purchased the land in the heart of Kentucky horse country in 1793, it has passed through five subsequent owners and grown to encompass nearly a thousand acres, a Greek Revival mansion, sixteen horse barns, a stone tower, a covered bridge, and an equine cemetery.
