A HISTORY OF HAMPSHIRE 



and Agnes his wife. 83 Nicholas Hussey held land 

 in Froyle in 1336," and Nicholas Hussey and 

 Christine his wife, in I382. 35 In 1414 they 

 conveyed to, amongst other persons, Richard 

 Wyett, 36 who, in 1416, acknowledged money 

 received of Thomas Colrith for the ' manor ' of 

 Husseys. 37 This is the earliest mention that has 

 come to light of the holding as a 'manor.' 

 Husseys probably descended as did Coldrey to Sir 

 Richard Holt, and from him to Sir Edward 

 Berkeley, who was a free suitor to the lady of the 

 chief manor of Froyle in I5O2. 38 In 1539, at the 

 time of the suppression of St. Mary's Abbey, 

 Winchester, the rent for Husseys was paid by Sir 

 Richard Lyster, chief baron of the Exchequer. 39 



A tenement in the parish called CdTLEES is 

 mentioned in the inquisition taken on the death of 

 Miles Windsor in 1452." In 1367 Richard de 

 Windsor had died seized of a virgate of land and 

 a small pasture, held of the abbess of St. Mary's. 

 He left a grandson and heir Miles, aged fourteen. 45 

 In the rental of 1415 Richard de Windsor is 

 returned as tenant of this virgate, mentioned as 

 having been formerly in the tenure of Richard 

 Catteley, 49 hence, no doubt, the name by which the 

 holding was called in 1452 as mentioned above. 

 Thomas Windsor died in 1485 seized ofCatlees, 

 leaving a son and heir Andrew, aged eighteen. 47 

 The Windsors were entered as free suitors at the 

 court of the chief manor of Froyle as late as 1 55O. 48

In i 557 Husseys was conveyed by John Gyffard 

 and Susan his wife to John Fitzwilliam, 40 who, in 

 1 564, died seized of it, 

 leaving a son and heir Wil- 

 liam, aged fifteen. 41 The 

 manor had, before 1639, 

 become the property of the 

 Jephsons, owners of the chief 

 manor of Froyle, 42 and was 

 sold by them in 1666 to 

 Samuel Gauden, 43 and the 

 manorial rights have presum- 

 ably remained in the subse-

There exists a fairly continuous series of court 

 rolls of the chief manor of Froyle, from the four- 

 teenth to the sixteenth century, with one of the 

 thirteenth and several of the seventeenth century. 49 

 There is also a fine series of account rolls from 1235 

 to I537. 60 



The abbess, as lady of the manor, had a several 

 fishery in the water next ' Parsonnysmede ' in 

 I50I 51 ; and in 1587 the lord is stated to have 

 the fishery of the whole ' water or river called 

 Froyle River' from Millcourt Gooshatche to 

 Isyngton Moor, and ' in Isyngton so far as the land 

 of the lord extends.' Elsewhere within the bounds 

 of the manor, he had the fishery to the mid-stream.
