Full Description

A common bakehouse is recorded on the Chokes manor in 1303, worth 66/8d. It is noted again in 1415 while in 1485 it was held at farm for 30/-. In contrast, in the adjacent hamlet of Murcott, in the same manor, the tenants paid for the right to bake(?). By 1590 the bakehouse was held by John Clarke but was described as ‘being nowe decayed.’ (1)
