Ogbourne St. Andrew's (Hundred of Selkley). About A.D. 1149, 

 the manors and churches of the two Okeburnes, were given by 

 Maud, daughter and heiress of Robert D'oiley, to Bee Herlewyn 

 Abbey, in Normandy. A cell of monks was placed here. 

 Their property was divided between the Dean and Chapter of 

 Windsor, King's College, Cambridge, and the Charter House 

 in London. No account seems to have been preserved of the 

 monks' residence, chapel, &c. In Ecton's Thesaurus, p. 406, 

 and Bacon's Liber Regis, p. 891, is this entry : " Okebourne 

 St. Andrew cum Rohee capella (St. Leonard) destructa." This 

 is no doubt a mistake for Rockley : which see. 



Ogbourne St. George, (Selkley Hundred.) The Yalor Eccles. 

 gives a chantry here in 1534 ; William Eliott, cantarist ; 

 value 66s. 8d. The chapel is at the east end of the north 

 aisle : and was dedicated to the Holy Trinity : and there was 

 an image of the Trinity. [See Kite's Wilts Brasses, 

 p. 47.] 



Paveshou. An " ecclesia" mentioned in Domesday Book as adjoin- 

 ing the manor of Corsham, apparently in some connexion 

 with the Rectory of Corsham, which then belonged to the 

 Abbey of St. Stephen of Caen. There is now in Corsham 

 neighbourhood no name at all like Paveshou, except Pewsham. 

 But in those days Pewsham was only a forest, connected with 

 Chippenham and not with Corsham. 



Potterne, (Hundred of Ditto.) A document by William Ayscough, 

 Bishop of Sarum, relating to a chantry in Heytesbury church, 

 is dated 1442 "in the chapel of the manor of Poterne." 

 This probably was a chapel in the " Mansum Manerii," the 

 episcopal residence at Potterne : which is supposed to have 

 been on the right hand side, going out to Worton. In the 

 ground considered to have belonged to the house have been 

 found two rings, and a seal. The latter is in the possession 

 of Mr. Wilkins of Devizes. The device is a very rude figure 

 of a man on horseback bearing a pennon : with the legend
