Full Description
{1}In 1086 there were 20 villeins who, with the priest and 10 bordars, had seven ploughs. Brown has suggested that these early villein tenements lay to the north and south of the road from Staverton (High Street) to the west of the oval manorial enclosure with the manor house and church, and that they may already have been set out at the rate of one 60 foot frontage to the virgate.
