562 Tropenell Memoranda. 



Sir Philip Fifcz Wareyu, knight, of all the lauds in Atteworth, 

 with the advowson of the church there, which they had by the 

 feoffment of Richard Rigate, chaplain, and William de Wike. 

 From Sir Philip the property descended to Joan, his daughter, 

 wife of Thomas Beaushyn, and there is abundance of evidence 

 touching its continuance in her posterity. 



From the date of the fine (1278) to the date of the charter 

 (1377) is a period of exactly one hundred years, and with regard 

 to the history of Cottels, more correctly described as "Litell 

 Atteward, otherwise callid Cotell Atteworth," during this space 

 of time Tropenell is completely silent. Luckily, however, there 

 was the church, or more properly the chapel, attached to the 

 estate, and a list of presentations by successive owners of the 

 advowson, collected and printed by Sir Thomas Phillipps, bridges 

 the interval : —

A yet earlier notice of the Cotel tenancy occurs in the Testa cle 

 Nev'dl, where, in the return for 1243, it is entered : — 



"Ricardus Cotel tenet in Atewurth tertiam partem feodi unius. 

 militis de dicto comite (viz. the earl Marshal) et ipse de rege." 



By 1329 this ancient line had given place to George Selyman, as 

 appears by the above list of presentations, and in 1362 Oliver 

 Russell is entered as patron. This Oliver, elsewhere described as
