Httntley, Hunteley, anciently Huntelie. William, son 

 Baderon, held Huntelie at the time of the Conquest 

 in Botelaw Hundred, taxed at two hides. The Manor of 

 Huntley was afterwards held by John Talbot, famous for 

 his victories in France, and created Farl of Shrewsbury. 



There is an immense Yew Tree in Huntley churchyard, 

 more than 20 feet in girth. Our forefathers were careful 

 to preserve the yew, whose branches it was usual for 

 the mourners to carry in the funeral procession to the 

 grave, and then to throw under the body. The branches 

 cut off, bv shooting next spring, typified the Resurrection, 

 as the perpetual verdure did the immortality of the 

 soul.

Taynton. formerly Tetington. Maud de Teynton gave 

 the Church of Teynton to the Abbey of St. Peter's, 

 Gloucester, to find lights. The old Church which stood 

 at the Northern end of the parish was burnt down in the 

 Civil Wars. The present Church, dedicated to St. Law- 

 rence, was built during the usurpation of Cromwell, 

 principally through the interest of Mr Thomas Pury, 

 Lord of the Manor; it stands almost North and South.
