INTRODUCTION. 
 
 TITHEN the Royal Archasological Institute visited Car- 
 ^" lisle in 1859, the late Mr. Hodgson Hinde read a 
 paper in the historical section, On the Early History of 
 Cumberland. From it we quote the following : 
 I have had occasion more than once to point out the inaccuracy, 
 not to use a harsher term, of the authorities which have hitherto 
 been reHed on, in tracing the general history of Cumberland. It is 
 foreign to the design of this essay to enter into local details, or I should 
 have to expose errors and mistatements at every step : but it may 
 not be out of place to give a few instances, by way of showing how 
 much caution is necessary in sifting the received statements of our 
 Cumbrian topographers. The narrative of the foundation of the 
 Priory of Lanercost is familiar to us all, repeated as it has been 
 by one writer after another, and yet the whole story is a fiction. 
 We are told that that religious house had its origin in the remorse 
 of Robert de Vaux for the treacherous murder of Gils Beuth, the 
 former owner of Gilsland, of which his father, Hubert de Vaux, 
 had obtained a grant from Kanulf de Micenis. Now it happens 
 that an enrolment of the charter, by which Hubert became pos- 
 sessed of Gilsland, is preserved amongst the Carta Antiquje in 
 the Tower, from which it plainly appears that Gils Beuth was 
 alread)' dead before Hubert had any connection with Gilsland ; and 
 we further learn as well from the charter, as from the Testa de 
 Nevil, that the title of the latter was derived from Henry H and not 
 from Ranulf, whose interest in Cumberland ceased before the close 
 of the reign of Henry I. A fundamental error of the Chronicon 
 Cumbrias is the deduction of the titles of all the estates in Cumber- 
 land from Ranulf de Micenis whereas this is the case with two 
 only. The bulk of the remainder were granted directly by the Crown 
 in the reign of Henry I., Gilsland, as we have seen, and two or three 
 others, by Henry II and the remainder to one individual by Richard I. 
 Another mistake is the identification of Hugh de Morville, lord of 
 the barony of Burgh with his more notorious namesake, the mur- 
 derer of Thomas a Becket. Hugh was a common name in the Mor- 
 ville family, as appears by various documents in which we meet with 
 the name of Hugh de Morville, at dates and under circumstances 
 
ii. INTRODUCTION. 
 
 which show that it could be neither of the above. Hugh de Morville, 
 of Burgh, was the grandson of Simon de Morville, who was probably 
 the brother, and certainly the contemporary, of Becket's assassin. 
 The former survived to the reign of John ; whereas the latter is stated 
 by all the biographers of the saint to have died at Jerusalem, whither 
 he had gone on a pilgrimage in expiation of his offence, and to have 
 been buried in front of the Temple, within three years of the murder. 
 He was lord of Westmorland, and of Knaresburgh in Yorkshire, at 
 the same time that Burgh was possessed by Simon, the grandfather 
 of his namesake. It would be easy to multiply instances of misstate- 
 ments, if it were necessary. Many of them originate with the Chroni- 
 con Cumbrias, but these are amplified and augmented by succeeding 
 compilers, especially by tico persons of the name of Denton, whose manu- 
 script collections have been the main source from whence the modern 
 historians of the county have derived their information as to the early 
 descent of property, and the genealogy of its possessors. The con- 
 tents of these storehouses of errors must be discarded by the future 
 topographer, or used only to compare with more authentic documents. 
 Hodgson Hinde, Archceological Journal, vol. xvi, pp. 217, 234-5. 
 
 Such being the opinion entertained of the two Denton 
 manuscript histories of Cumberland by an authority so 
 competent to pronounce as the late Mr. Hodgson Hinde, 
 the question may well be asked why this Society publishes 
 one of them. The answer is— that the policy of this Society 
 is gradually to publish, in its Transactions and its extra 
 volumes, every unpublished manuscript that relates to the 
 two counties with which the Society deals, in the hopes 
 that some day the man will arise, who will amalgamate 
 the materials thus provided into an ideal county history of 
 Cumberland and Westmorland. If the question further 
 be asked, why the manuscript now published is not more 
 fully supplied with notes: the answer is — that to do so 
 would be to anticipate, for Cumberland, the ideal history 
 we have just alluded to, and further that such notes could 
 not be fully and correctly supplied until the local monastic 
 chartularies, the pre-Reformation episcopal registers, and 
 other documents are published, — a task this Society hopes 
 to accomplish. One thing is certain — the labour of the 
 future historian or historians of Cumberland will be much

 facilitated by the ver}' excellent index, which Mr. R. J. 
 Whitwell, of Kendal, has with great labour and love 
 compiled, and for which as well on behalf of the Society 
 as on my own private and particular behalf, I beg to 
 tender him the best thanks we can : he has added immen- 
 sely to the value of this publication. 
 
 The two Dentons are John and Thomas : John was of 
 Cardew, and his burial is thus recorded in the registers of 
 the parish of Dalston : 
 
 1617 November 26 Jhon Denton de Cardew armiger Brd.* 
 
 He married a daughter of Sir John Dalston of Dalston 
 Hall, and is said to have been imprisoned in the Tower of 
 London, on a quarrel between him and Dr. Robinson, 
 Bishop of Carlisle. During his imprisonment he made 
 extracts from the records kept in the Tower, and from 
 these he compiled his history of Cumberland, of which 
 several copies, or rather editions, for they all differ, are in 
 existence : the original copy cannot be found, but by the 
 list of bishops given in it, as preserved in other copies, 
 it must have been written about 1610. The following 
 notes refer to the various editions, which have been used 
 for the purposes of this present publication. 
 
 1. The late Major Fairtlough, of Roodlands, Keswick, possessed a 
 very early copy of John Denton's Manuscript, which is now in 
 Canada. The Editor copied this many years ago. 
 
 2. The Dean and Chapter of Carlislepossess a folio copy of John Den- 
 ton's MS. It isbound up in the 6th volume of the Machell collections, 
 and was made about the year 1670 : on it is written " Transcribing 
 cost me 5s." This copy belonged to the great local antiquary Thomas 
 Machell, and came with his other papers to William Nicolson, Bishop 
 of Carlisle, 1702 to 1726, v\ho has added some notes. Nicolson had 
 the Machell papers bound in six volumes and placed in the Dean and 
 Chapter Library, Carlisle. 
 
 3. Queen's College, Oxford possesses a folio manuscript volume, 
 described in Sim's Manual for the Genealogist, Topographer, Antiquary, 
 &c. as " Collections for a History of Cumberland, by Hugh Todd, 
 
 * Transactions Ciimb. and West. Antiq. and Archaso. Society, vol. vii., p. 297. 
 
iv. INTRODUCTION. 
 
 D.D., seventeenth cent. Queen's Coll. Oxf. MS. cclxxxii." It is a 
 folio volume with the press mark 19 on the back. The title page is 
 as follows. — 
 
 An 
 
 Imperfect Account of the County of Cumberland. 
 
 To the Library of Queen's 
 
 College, Oxon. 
 
 Hugo Todd, S. Th. P. Coll. Universitatis 
 
 Socius, nuper hujus Collegij Alumnus. 
 
 The last two lines are in a different handwriting to the first four. It 
 is an edition of John Denton's manuscript, written in the year 1687, as 
 internal evidence shows, and no doubt by Todd himself. The lan- 
 guage in places is decidedly fine, and the sentiments ultra Protestant : 
 the writer has evidently tender reminiscences of the ale at Swain- 
 son's house at Calder Bridge and of the hospitality of the squire of 
 Calder Abbey. It has, I fancy, been written on loose sheets and 
 afterwards bound : large blank spaces are left between the accounts 
 of the various manors, and the manuscript seems to have been in- 
 tended as a skeleton to be filled up at a future time. It is curious 
 that its date, 1687, should be the same as that of the Scaleb}' or 
 Gilpin edition. 
 
 4. Mrs. Fawcett of Scaleby Hall possesses a small manuscript book, 
 
 six inches high, and 3g inches broad. It is bound in vellum and red 
 
 velvet : and contains the book plate of William Gilpin of Scaleby 
 
 Castle, Recorder of Carlisle, who died in 1724. His autograph ''W. 
 
 Gilpin, Aug. 20, 1687," is on the fly leaf. The title is as follows; — 
 
 An 
 
 Accompt of the most considerable 
 
 Estates and Families 
 
 in 
 
 The Countv of Cumberland, 
 
 from the Conquest unto the 
 
 beginning of the Reign 
 
 of 
 K. JAMES [the First]. 
 
 On the back of the title page is this note. 
 
 "The originall MS. is supposed to be writ by an ancestor of Mr. 
 Denton of Cardew during ye time of his imprisonment (as 'tis said) 
 in ye Tower, upon a contest that hapned to be betwixt him and Dr. 
 Robinson then Bishop of Carliell. Tis left imperfect in many places 
 with large blanks, some whereof are filled up with a different hand 
 and some titles stand without any accompt of them at all : and ye 
 
INTRODUCTION. V. 
 
 whole is confused and without order, so that it seems to have been 
 but a collection of materialls, which he intended afterwards to have 
 digested into better form." 
 
 "This copy is word for word with the originall, there being no 
 Alteracons but only in the method, the places being here reduced 
 under their respective Baronies which was the design as it seems of 
 the Author when he had completed his collection. And from page 
 346 to the end the Orthography of the MS. is precisely observed. 
 These tittle additions that are made are marked thus [] ." 
 
 The manuscript is very clearly written, in the handwriting of 
 Recorder Gilpin himself : a gooil margin and the lower half of each 
 page are left blank for notes, of which there are a good inany. The 
 manuscript occupies 445 pages, after which comes a list of the judges 
 of assize at Carlisle at the end of the 17th century, and a very imper- 
 fect list of the sheriffs for Cumberland from 1204 to 1735. In the 
 margins and at the end of the volume are some 200 local coats of 
 arms, roughly tricked : these do not however include any not given 
 in the usual books. 
 
 I have to thank Mrs. Fawcett of Scaleby Castle for her kindness 
 in entrusting this justly valued relic of Mr. Recorder Gilpin to my care 
 for several months, while this edition was going through the press. 
 
 5. The Society of Antiquaries possess a copy in folio of John Den- 
 ton's MS. It is titled 
 
 "The Antiquitys of Cumberland by Mr. Denton of Cardew, 
 MS. collated with a copy formerly belonging to William 
 Nicolson, Ld Ri' of Carlisle." 
 
 The list of bishops is brought down to Bishop Lyttelton, President 
 of the Society of Antiquaries, but his name and that of his predecessor 
 Osbaldiston are in a different handwriting to that of the rest of the 
 manuscript thus proving this manuscript to have been written 
 while Fleming was bishop of Carlisle, 1734 to 1747. I think the 
 names of Bishops Osbaldiston and Lyttelton have been added, and 
 the collation with Bishop Nicolson's copy made by Bishop Lyttel- 
 ton himself, and that he probably gave this copy to the Society 
 of Antiquaries. It is clear that Bishop Nicolson's copy, with which 
 the S.A. copy has been collated, is the one now belonging to the 
 Dean and Chapter of Carlisle. 
 
 6. Mr. Browne of Tallentire Hall, Cockermouth, possesses a small 
 book bound in vellum, the leaves of which are 7 inches by 5^. This 
 book contains a copy of the John Denton's history of Cumberland, 
 and a copy of Dr. Todd's history of Carlisle, together with one or 
 two documents referring to Highhead Castle and the Richmonds, and 
 
VI. INTRODUCTION. 
 
 to the rights of the tenants of the Forest of Inglewood. It formerly 
 belonged, as shewn by his autograph on the first page, to Josiah Relph 
 the poet curate of Sebergham : and it contains a list of his linen, 
 made probably on his death in 1743. 
 
 7. The Editor possesses a copy of the John Denton's MS., in the 
 inside of which is written 
 
 "John Fawcett from the late Sir. Jos. D. A. Gilpin." 
 It is a copy from the Scaleby manuscript with the spelling moder- 
 nised and with footnotes and additions bringing it down to 1749, in 
 which year internal evidence shows this copy to have been made : 
 it is in the handwriting of William Milbourne, of Lincoln's Inn and 
 Armathwaite Castle, Cumberland, as proved by a comparison with 
 his handwriting in certain Elzevirs bearing his book plates, auto- 
 graph and notes, in possession of the editor: he is known to have 
 edited, in manuscript, a copy of the John Denton manuscript (see 
 Lysons' Cumberland, p. 20). The following note is on the fly leaf. 
 
 "The original MS. is supposed to have been writ by one Mr. 
 Denton of the family of Cardew, during his imprisonment in the 
 Tower (as it is said), upon a contest that happened between him and 
 Dr. Robinson, then Bishop of Carlisle, and is brought down by Mr. 
 Denton to the year 1610." 
 
 "William Gilpin, Esq., of Scaleby Castle (from whose copy this 
 was taken), says that the original is left imperfect in many places 
 with large blanks and the whole confused and without order, so that 
 it seemed to have been only a collection of materials, which he in- 
 tended afterwards to have disposed into better form." 
 
 " Mr. Gilpin first undertook to place the several greater baronies 
 in order, and to reduce the places under their several baronies. He 
 has likewise made some usefull additions and annotations, and con- 
 tinued the pedigrees of several families down to the year 16S7. And 
 among many copies I have seen his is mucli the best." 
 
 The manuscript is titled 
 
 " An Account 
 
 Of the most considerable Estates 
 
 and Families 
 
 in the County of Cumberland, 
 
 since the Conquest till the year 1610." 
 
 Mr. Milbourne has added an appendix containing a collection of deeds 
 charters, &c. 
 
 For the purposes of this publication, the Editor has 
 relied upon Nos. 4 and 7, which are cited in the footnotes 
 
INTRODUCTION. Vll. 
 
 as the Gilpin or Scaleby MS. and tlie Milbourne MS. 
 respectively : footnotes signed Gilpin are in both MSS. 
 and are by Recorder Gilpin : those signed Milbourne are 
 in the later MS. only, and are additions by Recorder 
 Milbourne. The transcribers of Nos. 5 and 6, have not 
 known of the existence of the Gilpin or Scaleby MS. and 
 have adhered to the arrangement of the older manuscripts. 
 Of the Thomas Denton MS. history of Cumberland, no 
 copy is known to exist, unless one be in the muniment 
 room in Lowther Castle : Messrs. Lysons in their history 
 of Cumberland, p. 2, positively state that it was lent to them, 
 by the Earl of Lonsdale. They state that it was " written 
 in the years 1687 and 1688 by Thomas Denton Esq., 
 barrister-at-law, recorder of Carlisle, and lord of the 
 manor of Warnell Hall in Sebergham." But in those 
 years John Aglionby was recorder of Carlisle, and William 
 Gilpin deputy recorder,* and in 1687 Mr. Deputy Recorder 
 William Gilpin rearranged John Denton's MS. history of 
 Cumberland and produced No. 4, the Gilpin or Scaleby 
 Denton MS. Thomas Denton had been recorder of Car- 
 lisle prior to Aglionby, but had retired in 1679. t Thomas 
 Denton died in 1695 ; his portrait and that of his wife 
 Letitia Vachell are in the Town Hall at Carlisle. The 
 precise account given by Messrs. Lysons of the MS. history 
 of Cumberland, which they attribute to Thomas Denton, 
 forbids the conjecture that they have accidentally substi- 
 tuted Mr. Recorder Denton for Mr. Recorder Aglionby, but 
 it is a curious coincidence that in 1687, Mr. Ex-Recorder 
 Denton, and Mr. Deputy Recorder Aglionby, and Dr. Todd 
 {ante No. 3), should have all compiled histories of Cum- 
 berland based on that of John Denton.

 '^I^HAT country or county now called Cumberland is on 
 
 *^ the east of the same divided from Fourness, a part of 
 
 Lancaster, by the river of Dudden (which falleth into the 
 
 Irish ocean at Milium Castle), ascending by the banks of 
 
 the river up to Uffay or Woolfhay Park to Blackball, and 
 
 so to the Shire Stones upon the mountain Wrynose at the 
 
 head of Dudden where it first meeteth with the county of 
 
 Westmorland at Little Langdale in the fells, so, leaving 
 
 Great Langdale and Gresmyre on the east, it bordereth 
 
 upon the same all the way from Langdale unto Dunnimail 
 
 or Dunmail-raise (a great heap of stones at the head of 
 
 Wythburne cast together in antient time, either by King 
 
 Dunmail sometime King or Lord of that country, as a 
 
 mark of the utmost bounder of his kingdom, or by some 
 
 other in remembrance of his name, for some memorable 
 
 act by him done there or some victory against him). And 
 
 from thence on the back side of Helvelon or Hell Belyn 
 
 by the head of Glenkrhodden Beck unto the head of Glen- 
 
 kwen Beck, and so by Glenkwen Beck unto UUeswater (a 
 
 great lake) and thence by the river Aymot, (which runneth 
 
 forth of UUeswater at Powley Stank), descending by 
 
 Dacre Castle, Penrith, and Carleton, till it be received of 
 
 the great river Eden. And thence by Eden unto the foot 
 
2 THE BOUNDERS OF 
 
 of Blenkarn Beck.* And thence by the said little Beck it 
 is severed from Westmorland to where that Beck springs 
 out of the fells. It joineth again with Westmorland for 
 the space of five or six miles alongst the mountains. Then 
 meeting with a little corner of Yorkshire, it is bounded 
 by the same unto the head of the river Tees (which there 
 divideth Yorkshire from the county Palatine of Durham). 
 And from thence unto Kelloplaw Hill by the county of 
 Durham. From Kelloplaw Hill to the head of Alneburne, 
 it adjoineth to the county of Northumberland, which burn 
 or little river untill Kirkhaugh (where it is received of the 
 great river Tine) divides the two counties, which in like 
 manner on the other side of Tine are kept asunder by 
 another little rill falling into Tine from the east side of the 
 mountains in Geltsdale Forest. And from the head of that 
 little water unto the head of Hartley Burn, and thence along 
 the north-east side of Geltsdale Forest, and on Burn Tippel 
 Moor, (a great Heath and Waste), the said two counties of 
 Cumberland and Northumberland meet again and are not 
 severed whilstt a little beck called Fowtross part them, 
 which falling unto the water of Irthing loseth its name,

 thence to the head of Tees, and down Tees to the Crookburn Beck (sic in

 Denton is in error in saying that Cumberland meets with a little corner of York- 
 shire : the two counties do not actually meet. Burn and Nicolson, in their history

 Yorkshire correctly in their map. The Glenkwen Beck appears on the Ordnance 
 Map as the Glencoin : in Burn and Nicolson as the Glencune. Editor.

 its name) at the mote. Then ascending up Eske towards 
 Canonby it fetcheth in Kirkanders Holmes and there it is 
 parted from Scotland by a bank of earth and a ditch, that 
 reacheth from the side of Eske to Sark (a little Scottish 
 brook) which falling into Eske, and with Eske so into the 
 river of Eden aforementioned, are presently together in 
 one channel carried together to the Irish Sea as the last 
 bounder between them. From the foot of Eden, Cumber- 
 land, on the west side all along the coast bending 
 southwards Hke a bow, is environed by the Irish Sea, until 
 the foot of the river Dudden, at Milium Castle aforesaid. 
 Where it is broadest, that is from the Irish Sea on the 
 west to Kelloplaw Hill, being there extended into a point 
 on the east, it is between thirty-five and forty miles over, 
 and from Lamyford in the north to Milium Castle in the 
 south is scant fifty-five miles in length. t

 across to the Sark, by the bank of earth and ditch mentioned by Denton, and 
 known as "the Scotch Dyke," for which see Burn and Nicolson, vol. i., xvi. vol.

 EGREMONT BARONY. 
 
 The Barony of King William the Conqueror,* about 
 Egremont. the latter end of his reign after he had 
 
 taken the county of Cumberland from 
 Gospatrick, to whom he had first given it, and banished 
 the Saxons, and quieted the rebellions there raised, and 
 outlawed the inhabitants (the whole north parts from 
 York northward being in those journeys wasted with fire 
 and sword), gave the counties of Cumberland and West- 
 morland to Ranulph or Randolph de Meschines, sisters 
 son to Hugh Lupus, Earl of Chester, and left him men 
 to maintain to defend the country from all hostility which 
 might trouble the peace of the same, either by tumult of 
 the inhabitants that were left or foreign invasion. 
 
 Randolph de Meschines being quietly possessed of every 
 part of Cumberland, presently surveyed the whole country, 
 and gave all the frontiers bordering on Scotland, on 
 Northumberland and along the sea coasts, to his friends 
 and followers, retaining still to himself the middle part 
 between the east and west mountains, a goodly great forest 
 full of woods, red and fallow deer, wild swine and all 
 manner of wild beasts, called the forest of Englewood, 
 which was sixteen miles long, and ten broad, and lieth 
 between the rivers Shawk and Eden, extended in length 
 from Carlisle to Penrith. 
 
 This Earl Randolph gave to his brother William de

 which lies between the rivers Dudden and Darwent and 
 the sea. 
 
 And so much of the same as lyeth between the rivers 
 Cocker and Darwent the said WiUiam granted over to one 
 Waldeof, the son of Gospatrick, Earl of Dunbar, in Scot- 
 land, together with five towns about Cockar, that is to say, 
 Brigham, Eaglesfield, Dean with Branthwait, Crayksothen 
 and Clifton, with the hamlets thereof Little Clifton and 
 Stainburn. This Waldeof was Lord of Allerdale beneath 
 Darwent. And to Ketell, the son of Eldred, the son of

 Egremont. The said Lord William de Meschines 
 seated himself at Egremont, where he built a castle upon a 
 sharp topped hill, and there upon called the same Egre — 
 mont, and all such lands as he or his successors lords of 
 Kopeland, granted to any knight or freeholder within the 
 barony of Kopeland they bound the same to be held of that 
 castle of Egremont, and caused the name of the barony to 
 be changed from Kopeland, and to be called the barony of 
 Egremont, which name it retaineth to this day. 
 
 This William left no issue at his death but a daughter, 
 who was married to Robert Romly, of Skipton in Craven, 
 
 * Ivo de Tailbois had no other issue, but a daughter Lucia, who married, first, 
 Roger de Romara, by whom she had an only son William : second, Ranulph de

 by whom he had issue, a daughter named Alice, whom the 
 said Robert Romly gave in marriage to WilHam Romly, 
 Earl of Murray, in Scotland, the son of Duncan, by which 
 marriage the said William FitzDuncan, became lord both 
 of Skipton and Egremont, in the right of his wife being 
 sole heir of Skipton by her father, and of Egremont by 
 her mother the Lord Meschines' daughter. 
 
 William FitzDuncan had issue by the said Alice, a son 
 called William, who dyed an infant, and three daughters 
 co-heirs. The oldest named Sybill or Cicely, was married 
 to William le Gros, Earl of Aumarle, and had issue only 
 a daughter, named Hawise, who was married to three 
 husbands successively, to William de Mandevill Earl of 
 Essex ; to Baldwain Beton ; and to William de Fortibus, 
 to whom the said Hawise bore a son called William de 
 Fortibus, who had issue the third William de Fortibus, 
 who had issue Aveline an only daughter and heir (who 
 was married to Edmond Croutchback, King Edw: ist 
 brother) and dying without any children, the third part of 
 William FitzDuncan's land (which was Skipton in Craven), 
 came to the King's hand, and, by King Edward 2nd, was 
 granted to Robert Clifford in exchange of the Clifford's 
 lands in the county of Monmouth, whose posterity, now 
 Earls of Cumberland, enjoy the same. 
 
 Annabil the second daughter of William FitzDuncan, 
 had for her part of the inheritance this barony of Egremont 
 and took to husband Reginald Lucy,* by whom she had 
 issue, Richard de Lucy, who had issue, two daughters 
 Annabel Lucy and Alice Lucy. 
 
 Dame Alice Romley, the third daughter and co-heir of 
 William FitzDuncan was married by King Henry 2nd, 
 unto Gilbert Pipperd ;t and after by the Queen unto Robert 
 Courtney, but had no issue of her body ; wherefore her part

 of her father's inheritance (which was ye liberty of Cocker- 
 mouth, Aspatrick, and the barony of Egremont below the 
 river Darwent), was divided between the Earl of Alber- 
 marle and Richard de Lucy, her sister's children, and so 
 continued divided until the eldest sister's issue extinguished 
 by the death of Avelina aforesaid, daughter to the last 
 William de Fortibus. After whose death all the Romley's 
 lands above Darwent and beneath, both the barony of 
 Egremont and Allerdale, came wholly to the heirs of 
 Reginald Lucy, and of Annabel Romley his wife, second 
 daughter to the said William FitzDuncan. 
 
 Annabel Lucy (one of the daughters and co-heirs of 
 Richard de Lucy, son to Reginald de Lucy and Annabel 
 Romley his wife, the daughter of William FitzDuncan), 
 for her moiety enjoyed the barony of Egremont, (all saving 
 Lowes Water) which was more by a twentieth part than 
 the residue which was enjoyed by her sister Lucy. Anna- 
 bel was married to Thomas Multon, by whom she had 
 Lambert de Multon, who had issue Thomas de Multon, 
 whose son John de Multon, left the barony of Egremont to 
 his three daughters and heirs, Elizabeth (married to 
 Haverington, of Haverington), Joan (married to Robert 
 FitzWalter), and Margaret (who was married to the Lord 
 Thomas Lucy). At which time this barony was broken 
 into parts, which from the conquest had continued intire, 
 except Lowes Water, and the lands between Cockar and 
 Darwent, and the five towns granted to Waldeof, as afore- 
 said. But now of late it is reunited by the Earls of 
 Northumberland, who are Lords thereof, by gift and pur- 
 chase but not by Discent from any of the co-heirs*

 the rest is forest ground, hills, and great mountains, best 
 fitting for sheep pasture. 
 
 Milium Castle, the antient seat and capital mansion of 
 this manor, is placed at the foot of the river Dudden, and 
 through length of time threatens ruin. Howbeit the lords 
 thereof make it still their dwelling place and abode, holding 
 themselves content, that the old manner of strong building 
 there, with the goodly demesns and commodities which 
 both land and sea afford them, and the stately parks full 
 of huge oaks and timber woods and fallow deer, do better 
 witness their antient and present greatness and worth, 
 than the painted vanities of our times do grace our new 
 upstarts. 
 
 This great mannor in the time of King Henry i^* was 
 
 given by William Meschines, Lord of Egremont, to - 
 
 de Boyvill, father to Godard de Boyvill, (named in antient 
 evidences Godardus Dapifer) who being of Milium did give 
 unto the abbot and monks of Fourness a carcucate of land 
 there with the appurtenances called yet to this day Monk 
 Force, which Arthur the son of Godard confirmed unto 
 the abbey, and after him in like sort his son and heir 
 Henry the son of Arthur, reserving only the harts and 
 hinds, wild boars and their kinds, and all aieries of hawks. 
 
 But whatsoever the Lord of Egremont William Meschines 
 reserved upon the first grant to the Boyvills, whether 
 demesn or forest liberties, Dame Cicely Romley, (one of 
 the co-heirs of William FitzDuncan), Countess of Albe- 
 marle, to whose purparty this Milium was allotted by 
 partition, gave and fully confirmed the same to the said 
 Arthur FitzGodard, and to Henry his son and their heirs 
 by her charter yet extant, under seal, bounding the same 
 thus " Dedi et Concessi Henrico filio Arthuri et Heredibus jus 
 Hereditatis viz : totam terram et totum feodum inter Esk et 
 Dodden cum pertinentiis &c. ; and Dame Hawise her sole 
 daughter and heir, then the wife of William de Mande- 
 vil, advised her husband to confirm it. 
 
10 EGREMONT. — [MILLUm]. 
 
 And for a recognition of the grant made to the Boyvills, 
 Arthur and Henry his son by Dame Cicely the Countess, 
 they paid to King Henry 2nd for a postfine one hundred 
 pounds and five couple of hounds, the records terming 
 them decern fugatorcs . 
 
 An old tradition makes these Boyvills to have been very 
 near of kin to the Lords of Egremont, and gives us an 
 account of the occasion upon which Milium was transferred 
 to the said Boyvills, which is said to be thus : The baron 
 of Egremont being taken prisoner beyond the seas by the 
 infidels, could not be redeemed without a great ransom, 
 and being for England entered his brother or kinsman for 
 his surety, promising with all possible speed to send him 
 money to set him free ; but upon his return home to Egre- 
 mont, he changed his mind and most unnaturally and 
 unthankfuUy suffered his brother to lye in prison, in great 
 duress and extremity untill the hair of his head was grown 
 to an unusual length, like to a woman's hair. The Pagans 
 being out of hopes of the ransom, in great rage most 
 cruelly hanged up their pledge, binding the long hair of his 
 head to a beam in the prison, and tied his hands so behind 
 him that he could not reach to the top, where the knot 
 was fastened, to loose himself. During his imprisonment 
 the Paynim's daughter became enamoured of him, and 
 sought all good means for his deliverance but could not 
 enlarge him ; she understanding of this last cruelty, by 
 means made to his keeper entered the prison, and taking 
 her knife to cut the hair, being hastened, she cut the skin 
 of his head so as with the weight of his body, he rent 
 away the rest, and fell to the earth half dead ; but she 
 presently took him up, causing surgeons to attend him 
 secretly till he recovered his former health, beauty, and 
 strength, and so entreated her father for him that he set 
 him at liberty. Then desirous to revenge his brother's 
 ingratitude he got leave to depart to his country, and took 
 home with him the hatterell of his hair rent off as afore- 
 
EGREMONT. — [MILLUM.] II 
 
 said, and a bugle-horn which he commonly used to carry 
 about him when he was in England, where he shortly 
 arrived and coming towards Egremont Castle about noon- 
 tide of the day, when his brother was at dinner, he blew 
 his bugle-horn which (says the tradition) his brother the 
 baron presently acknowledged, and thereby conjectured his 
 brother's return, and then sending his friends and servants 
 to learn his brother's mind to him, and how he had 
 escaped, they brought back the report of all the miserable 
 torment which he had endured for his unfaithful brother 
 the baron, which so astonished the baron, (half dead before 
 with the shameful remembrance of his own disloyalty and 
 breach of promise) that he abandoned all company and 
 would not look on his brother, till his just wrath was 
 pacified by diligent entreaty of their friends, and to be sure 
 of his brother's future kindness, he gave the lordship of 
 Milium to him and his heirs for ever. Whereupon the 
 first lords of Milium gave for their arms the horn and the 
 hatterell. 
 
 But whatever the occasion of the grant was, the Boy- 
 vills were from the place called de Milium, and have 
 antiently held the same with great liberties, and had jura 
 regalia there ; John Huddleston did prescribe thereto in 
 the twentieth year of King Edw. i^' and was allowed before 
 Hugh de Cressingham in the pleas of Quo Warranto holden 
 for the king.

 of Milium to the Abbey of St. Marie's of York, to which 
 Abbey his wife Matilda also gave Anderset, now Agnes 
 seat. 
 
 Arthur de Milium son of Godard third Lord of Milium, 
 confirmed his father's grants of Monk Force, and of the 
 parishes to the Abbeys of York and Fourness, and granted 
 to Fourness the services of Kirksanton in Milium, which 
 Robert de Boyvill his cousin german then held of him, 
 and presently after did mortgage the same to the Abbot of 
 Fourness till he returned from the Holy Land. 
 
 Henry the son of Arthur the son of Godard, fourth 
 Lord of Milium, confirmed his ancestors grants, and en- 
 feoffed Radulph Corbett and his heirs of the manor of 
 Brettaby,* with the appurtenances in Milium. He also 
 gave Raisthwaite in Dunnersdale, to one Orme the son 
 of Dolphin. And Leakley to Henry FitzWilliam in frank 
 marriage with his daughter Goynhild Boyvill, with shields 
 for her cattle, and common of pasture in Croch-beeghe, 
 which Goynhild afterwards (being a widow) gave to the 
 Abbey of Holm Cultram. And William de Milium (the son 
 of Henry de Milium, the son of Arthur de Milium), brother 
 of the said Goynhild did after confirm the same, and 
 afterwards John Huddleston and Joan his wife, sole 
 daughter of Adam de Milium, son and heir of the said 
 Henry, confirmed Leakley and the liberties aforesaid (so 
 granted by Goynhild), unto the abbot and convent of Holm 
 Cultram and his successors. 
 
 The said Henry FitzArthur gave other lands in Leakley 
 (now called Seaton), unto the nuns of Leakley or Seaton, 
 which of late were granted unto Sir Hugh Askew, Knt., 
 when the nunnery was suppressed by Hen. 8*. But 
 Seaton is now the inheritance of John Pennington gentle- 
 man.

 Arthur to Goynhild his daughter approves the same, for 
 therein is excepted as follows : " Excepta Terra in LeakUy 
 quam dedi Sanctis Monialibus servientibus Deo et SandcB 
 MaricB in Leckleya.^' It takes the name of Seaton from 
 the sea, for that it stands nigh the same. And the rest of 
 Leakley or Seaton, formerly given to the Abbey of Holm 
 Cultram as aforesaid, is now also part of the possessions 
 of the late nuns of Seaton. 
 
 All the residue of the fees of Milium were thus granted 
 by the Boyvills, Lords of Milium, to their kinsmen or 
 friends, or with their daughters, or sisters in marriage, 
 and accordingly by the Huddlestons and their heirs, some 
 as manners, and some as lesser freeholds, as, namely, 
 Ulfhay, Thwaits, Dalegarth, and Waybergthwaite, and 
 some in mortmain, as Leakley and Kirksanton. All which 
 places gave sirnames to the posterity of the feoffees, as 
 Thwaits of Thwaits, Wayberthwaite of Waybergthwaite, 
 and the rest, whereof some do yet remain, and some names 
 are worn out but antient records do report and remember 
 them. 
 
 Ulfhay. Ulfhay was granted to one Ulff, the son of 
 Evard, whose posterity enjoyed it till the time of K. Hen. 
 3'''>. Ulff had issue, Ailfward, and Retell. Ailfward paid to 
 K. Hen. 2"*^ in the 27th year of his reign, twenty marks for 
 a fine assessed upon him for an attaint. Retell had diverse 
 sons, Bennett, William, and Michael. Bennett lived in R. 
 John's time, and had a son named Alan. But now the 
 land is reduced to demesne again, and Mr. Huddleston, 
 the pi'esent Lord of Milium, and diverse of his ancestors 
 have made there a park enclosed for deer, which yet to 
 this day is called Uffhay Park. 
 
 Thwaites. Thence along down the river of Dudden 
 stands the manor of Thwaites, between the river and the 
 mountains, now the antient seat of Joseph Thwaites of 
 Ulnerigg Esq., and the place being a stony mountainous 
 country is not everywhere altogether fit for tillage meadow

 and pasture. But in several parts and pieces as they are 
 marked by nature, differing in form and quality of soil or 
 otherwise by the inhabitants inclosed from the barren 
 wastes of the fells, such pieces of land are now and were 
 of old called Thwaites in most places of the shire, some- 
 times with addition of their quality, as Brackenthwaite 
 of fearns, Sivithwaite of rushes, Stonythwaite of stones, 
 Brenthwaite of its steepness, Brunthwaite of burning 
 with the sun, Redthwaite of the colour of the soil, Over- 
 thwaite of higher lying, Moorthwait of the heath, Sourth- 
 waite of the wet soil, Langthwaite of the form of lying, 
 Micklethwaite of the quantity, and diverse others. 
 
 This manor being an antient fee, holden of the Lord of 
 Milium, for a dowry was by Ellen the wife of John 
 Boyvill and Michael de Corney, passed by fine levyed 35 
 Hen. 3'^<J., of land in Thwaites. And John Huddleston 
 impleaded William the son of John Thwaites, for 200 acres 
 of pasture there An. 16 Edw. 1=='. 
 
 The gentlemen of this family do bear for their arms a 
 cross argent fretty gules in a field . . . which seems 
 to be derived from the Huddleston's coat of whom they 
 hold the manor of Thwaits. 
 
 Whicham. At the west end of Donersdale, near the fell 
 and foranenst Milium, stands Whitcham* or Wicheham 
 alias Whittingham which all or the most part thereof was 
 another fee holden of Milium, and as I take it the place 
 took the name of one Wyche, the first feoffee of the same. 
 He lived about the time of K. Hen. i''*. Two of his sons, 
 William FitzWych and Godfrey, were witnesses to a 
 mortgage of Kirksanton, in the time of Hen. 2°''. But the 
 issue general brought their lands into other families about 
 the time of King Hen. 3'^'^. For then one Radulph de 
 Bethom had the land, and anno 6 Edw. 1=^' he granted 
 estovers to John, parson of Whitcham, in his woods there.

 lands in Selcroft and Saterton, in Milium, g Edw. i^'. But 
 
 the manors of Selcroft and Whitcham, were in another 
 
 family 9 Edw. 2"*^., as appears by a fine thereof levied 
 
 between William Corbett and Alicia his wife querentes, and 
 
 John de Corney deft. 
 
 Whitbeck. Some deal westward under the mountains 
 
 stands the church or chapel of Whitbeck, which William 
 
 Morthing, Lord of Whitbeck, gave by fine levied to the 
 
 prior and convent of Coning-Seai in the 45th year of Hen. 
 3rd. 
 
 These Morthings and Corbets were antiently seated in 
 Milium. I have seen of their names in writings and 
 evidences made in the time of K. Hen., or Edw. 2°"^., and 
 to have been men of good worth and quality there, as 
 namely one William de Morthing, and John de Morthing, 
 William Corbet, and Radulph Corbet. Diverse of the 
 Corbets seated themselves in Scotland, in those famous 
 wars of K. Edw. i^'., where their posterity do remain to 
 this day. 
 
 BooTLE. Next unto Whitbeck, in the Common High 
 Street, more toward the west is Butle, where of old stood 
 a mansion of the Couplands. They bear for arms. Or, a 
 bend sable, a canton and two barrs gules. I have seen a 
 register of their descent, namely : 
 
 Sir Richard Cowpland, Knt. 
 
 Alane Cowpland, son of Sir Richard. 
 
 Richard Cowpland, son of Alan, who 
 died seised of Buile, 26 Edw. i^'. 
 
 John Cowpland, son of Richard. 
 
 Richard Cowpland, son of John. 
 They continued in the issue male till the time of K. Rich. 
 2, and K. Hen. 4, and now their lands are transferred into 
 other famines. 
 
 CoRNEY. The manor of Corney lyes next Butle in 
 Milium, more toward the north-east under the mountains

 upon the top of lesser hills. Corney is called also Cornhow, 
 and Corno. Of this place, the posterity of Michael le 
 Falconer and himself took the sirname of Corney, for they 
 had a feoffment thereof antiently in the time of K. John, 
 and K. Hen. 3. 
 
 Seaton. And nearer the sea westward is seated the nun- 
 nery of Seaton, of the endowment of the antient Lords of 
 Milium confirmed by the barons of the seignory of Egre- 
 mont to the nuns there : which did remain until by the late 
 suppression of abbeys it came to the Crown. Hen. 8* 
 gave the scite and lands there unto his servant Sir Hugh 
 Askew, and his heirs. This knight descended from one 
 Thurston de Bosco, who lived in the days of King John, 
 and had a feoffment from the Lords of Kirksanton of a 
 place then called the Aikskeugh or Oakwood, and from a 
 poor estate was raised to great honour and preferment by 
 his service to K. Hen. S^^ in his house ordinary, and in 
 the field at the seige of Bullen and wars of France. But 
 it is now become the lands of the Penningtons. 
 
 To John Huddleston who married Johan, the daughter 
 and heir of Adam de Milium, and was in her right Lord 
 of Milium, K. Henry the 3rd granted, in the 35th year 
 of his reign, liberty to keep a fair and market in Milium. 
 
 MuLCASTER. The next fee unto Milium, holden im- 
 mediately of the barony of Egremont, is Mulcaster, seated 
 on the north side of the seignory of Milium. The manor 
 is bounded between the river Eske and a little rill or beck 
 called Mite.* It is in form a long ridge or rising ground of 
 hills from the foot of Eske, extended along between those 
 rivers unto the great and vast mountains belonging to 
 Egremont in Eskdale, Wastdale, and Mitredale. There 
 are not many under fees belonging to this mannor. 
 
 The place is now corruptly named Moncaster, howbeit 
 
 * The parish of Muncaster or Mulcaster includes the manor of that name, 
 which is without Milium, and the manor of Birkby (Brettaby ante, p. 13) which 
 is within. Editor. 
 
l8 EGREMONT. 
 
 the right name is Mulcastre or Meol-castre, of an old 
 castle there towards the water side near unto Eskmeal, 
 which was the antient dwelling place of the Penningtons, 
 and is yet visible in the ruins, they call it the Old Walls ;* 
 (for their present mansion house is of later erection, made 
 by some of them), much better and more conveniently set 
 for state and avoidance of the air, and sharp distempers 
 from the sea). It was called the Meolcastre or Mulecastre, 
 from the meal on which it antiently stood, and it is accor- 
 dingly written Mulecastre and Mealcastre, in all their old 
 evidences and records. Eskmeal (whereon the antient 
 castle stood), is a plain low dry ground at the foot of Esk, 
 between the mountains and the sea, which sort of grounds 
 lying under the mountains and promontories into or at the 
 sea, are commonly called mules, or metis, as it were the 
 entrance or mouth from the sea into a river or such like 
 place, as this meal of Esk, Kirksanton meil, Cartmeil, 
 Mealholm, the Mule of Gallowav, and Milium itself, and 
 many other such like. 
 
 The estate is now in the possession of Joseph Penning- 
 ton Esq., whose ancestors have enjoyed the same ever 
 since the Conquest, sometimes collaterally but for the 
 most part lineally descending by their issue male to this 
 time. They were for the most part knights successively, 
 and men of great valour in the king's services, on the 
 borders and marches, and in other expeditions where it 
 pleased the king to command them. They took their 
 name from Pennington in Lancashire, and though this 
 mannor (of Mulcasterl, was always theirs as aforesaid, 
 yet some have greatly mistaken the same to have been 
 first the Mulcasters' patrimony and to have come from 
 them to the Penningtons by marriage or purchase. All

 the Mulcasters are descended from one David de Mul- 
 castre the son of Benedict Pennington who lived in King 
 John's time. He had two sons John and Adam, called 
 both de Mulcaster, and so their posterity take their sir- 
 name of the place where their first ancestor David died.* 
 
 Ravenglass. Ravenglass, now a village, antiently a 
 green of ferns, (corruptly called of two Irish words Rainigh 
 ferns and Glass green), was antiently another fee of Egre- 
 mont. It stands at the foot of Esk, where, by King John's 
 grant made to Richard Lucy, then Lord of Egremont, dated 
 the tenth year of that king's reign, was kept a market and a 
 fair yearly in right of the haven there by the Lords of 
 Egremont, as Lords paramount, and the same Richard 
 Lucy, in the same year, confirmed by fine levied to the 
 mesne Lords and terrtenants all the land and fee of Raven- 
 glass, namely to Alan Pennington, WiUiam FitzHugh, 
 and Roger FitzEdward, to hold the same of the said 
 William and his heirs, and gave them moreover estovers 
 to make their fishgarths in the river Esk, which is con- 
 tinued to this day. The Penningtons have long enjoyed 
 the mannor and other lands there now adjoyning. 
 
 Carleton. Between Mite and the river Irt, at the sea 
 stands Carleton, and on the other side of Irt, Dregg another 
 fee of Egremont, now the Penningtons' land. Carleton was 
 first villa rusticata, a town of husbandry and then called 
 Karlston, then as now inhabited by Carls {i.e., husbandmen) 
 but afterwards made a demesne.

 Dregg. Dregg on the other side of Irt, had great sort of 
 oaks in the elder times, and thereof the Scots and inhabi- 
 tants (at and before the Conquest), called the mannor Dregg 
 of Derig or Dergh, which is oak in the Scottish or Irish 
 language. And much old wood beaten down with the wind 
 from the sea is yet digged up out of the mosses and wet 
 grounds there, as in diverse other places in the country. 
 And in Scotland there are several places which got their 
 names from Derigg, oaks; as Glendergh, and some others in 
 Cumberland as Dundragh. And in our English, Aikton, 
 Aikhead, Aikskeugh, &c. 
 
 In King Henry 2"^^, time the Estutevilles were possessed 
 of this mannor. The whole patrimoney descended by a 
 daughter to the Lord Baldwin Wake, Baron of Liddal, 
 when Henry 3""^ reigned, of, which Baldwin, William the 
 son of Thomas de Greystock, and the Lady Adingham in 
 Fourness, in the tenth year of Ed. i^'., held a knight's fee 
 between them in Dregg. And in the 29th Ed. 1°'., the 
 Abbot of Calder, Patrick Culwen, and the Lady Margaret 
 Multon, held Dregg of John de Graystock, and of John the 
 son of Robert Harrington, and they over of John Wake. 
 
 Irton. a little above Carleton, on the south side of Irt, 
 stands the mannor and town of Irton and Irtondale, which 
 are so named of the river Irt. The antient family of the 
 Irtons took their first sirname of this town and seat of 
 Irton, which yet continues in their name and blood to this 
 day. One of their younger sons named Radulph, by his 
 painful diligence in study and learning became the 8th 
 Bishop of Carlisle, in the beginning of K. Ed. i". reign. 
 
 Above Irton, in the fells and mountains, lies a waste 
 forest ground full of red deer, which was called the 
 Wastdale, now Wasdale, the inheritance of the Earl of 
 Northumberland: and before, the Lucys' lands, being a 
 parcel of their third part of the Barony of Egremont, which 
 Thomas Lucy got with his wife Margaret, one of the 
 daughters and co-heirs of John Multon, last of that name 
 Baron of Egremont. 
 
EGREMONT. 21 
 
 GosFORD. Above Dregg lies the parish manner and town 
 of Gosford whereof the Gosfords an antient family in those 
 parts took their sirname. Robert Gosford the last of their 
 house, left his lands to be divided amongst five co-heirs. 
 I. Mariotte, the wife of Adam Caddy, eldest daughter and 
 co-heir of Robert Gosford. 2. Isabel, the wife of Henry 
 Huscock, his second daughter. 3. Johan, the wife of 
 John Garth, his third daughter. 4. Ellen, the wife of 
 William Kirkby, his fourth daughter. And 5. John Mul- 
 ton, the son of Agnes Estholme the fifth daughter and 
 co-heir of Robert Gosford. In the second year of K. Ed. 
 3'^'*., Sarah the widow of Robert Leyburn held Caddy's 
 part, John Penyston Kirkby's part, and the said John 
 Multon the residue. But now Pennington, Kirkby, and 
 Sennus of Seaskall, hold it. 
 
 Hale. Hale in Hen. 3rd's time was the land of Alex- 
 ander de Hale ; Agnes and Constance his daughters held 
 it 23 Ed. i"., of Thomas Multon of Gilsland, but in Edw. 
 2^^. time she is named Christian in John Multon's office. 
 The Ponsonbys got Agnes's part, and in Rich. 2^^. time 
 William Beauchamp, Robert Harrington or Everington, 
 Richard Murthing, and the heir of John Stanley the other 
 part. But now Ponsonby holds it wholly. 
 
 Towards the sea coast stands Seaskall Hall, now the 
 mansion house of John Sennos, which is so called of this 
 word Skale, drawn from the latin Scalinga ad mare a Scale 
 or Skeele, for cattle and sheepcot at ye sea. 
 
 Sellowfield. And near it Sellowfield or Sea-low-field 
 seated upon the brook that falls from the mountains by 
 Calder Abbey. 
 
 Ponsonby. Upon the same brook stands Ponsonby, 
 whereof that race of gentlemen the Ponsonbies took their 
 name, some of whom yet remain. I read of Alexander the 
 son of Richard Ponsonby, who lived about the time of 
 Edw. 2"''., and William in Edw. s'''^., and Robert in Rich. 
 2"*^. But the said Ponson of whom the place took name, 
 
22 EGREMONT. 
 
 lived in K. Stephen and Hen. I'K, time. His son John the 
 son of Ponson was fined in Hen. 2""^., time because he 
 wanted his pledge. It it now the lands of ..... 
 
 Saunton. Saunton was in Hen. 3'''^. time the in- 
 heritance of one Alane de Copeland, his capital mansion 
 house was in the township of Botle (or Butle), where he 
 held lands, (and in Seaton) of the Lord of Milium. And his 
 twenty pound lands in Santon, Irton, and Bolton, he held 
 of Thomas Multon of Gilsland, who held over of the Lord 
 of Egremont. After Alane and Richard his son succeeded 
 Alane, John and Richard. And in the 22nd year of Rich. 
 2"'^., one Alane son to Richard Copeland held lands there 
 in Retrawtrell.* At this present it is Mr. Irtons, and one 
 Winders who bought his part of Latus, and he of Mr. 
 Lancaster. 
 
 Bolton. Bolton in Copeland was the Waybergthwaites' 
 lands in Edw. ist time. One William Waybergthwaite 
 held 23rd Ed. i^'., decern libratas terrce there of Thomas 
 Multon of Gilsland, and his lands in Waybergthwaite of 
 the Lord of Milium. It is at this day the land of Senhous 
 and Kirkby. 
 
 Cauder Abbey. And at the other side of this beck is 
 seated the Abbey of Cauder, or Caldre, so called from the 
 rill or beck falling from the mountains of+ . . into the 
 dale where the abbey stands, and thence into the west 
 ocean. The water had that name of the Irish inhabitants 
 there taken from the form and nature of the place. The 
 Abbey as I have read was first founded in the year of Grace 
 1134, about the last year of King Hen. i"., when William 
 FitzDuncan was Lord of Egremont. Howbeit I think it 
 was not perfected till Thomas de Multon finished the 
 works and established a greater convent of Monks there. 
 
 * This name is queried in the margin of the Milbourne manuscript : nothing 
 like it occurs on the Ordnance Map. Editor. 
 
 f The mountains from whence the beck falls are named Caldfell (perhaps from 
 the cold blasts there usually found) and the name seems thence to be derived to 
 the rill. Gilpin.

 Thomas Multon gave to the Abbey half the mannor of 
 Dereham, in the county of Cumberland, with the advowson 
 of the church there, " ad sustentationem unius Conventus 
 apud Caldram, prceter Conventum ibidem prius statutmn : " 
 Ranulp Bonekill confirmed unto them their lands in 
 Gilcruse. John Fleming gave JoUan Abbott there the 
 patronage of Arloughden with some lands in great Becker- 
 met. 
 
 Jollanus was Abbot there 26 Hen. 3''''.

 Walter - Abbot 40 Hen. 2>"^.* 
 
 St. Brides. Between Cauder Beck and Beckermet 
 toward the sea stands St. Brides.t 
 
 Beckermet. A little above St. Brides lies the mannor 
 of Beckermet, now and of old the Flemings' lands of 
 Rydal, who as mesne Lords between the Barons of Egre- 
 mont and the possessors and land tenants of Rotington, 
 Frisington, Arloghden, and Weddikar, did hold them as 
 fees of Beckermet, and itself as a demesne of the baron as 
 a fee of Egremont Barony. The first Fleming that I read 
 of was Reginer Fleming whose son John was seized of the 
 same in K. Ed. z^^. time and his son Thomas the son of 
 John in Ed. 3'''^. time. 
 
 * Cavvder Abbey is now (1687) the inheritance of Richard Patrickson Esq., the 
 
 son of John Patrickson (a younger son of Patrickson of ye How), and 
 
 Bridget one of the daughters of Sir Richard Fletcher the son of Thomas Fletcher 
 
 of Cockermouth. The said Sir Richard Fletcher purchased the Abbey of 
 
 and settled it upon his daughter Bridget, who enjoyed it for some time sole, and 
 afterwards conveyed it by marriage to John Patrickson as aforesaid to whom 
 she had issue, the said Richard now living and one daughter Bridget married to 
 
 John Aglionby of Drawdykes Esq. The Patricksons give for arms Arg. 3

 St. Bees. The church of St. Begh* was antiently a 
 parish church erected and dedicated in honour of an Irish 
 woman (named by some writers Begogh) sometime there, 
 of great sanctimony, whereupon the town was first called 
 Kirkby Begogh, i.e., villa sive habitatio ad Fanum Begce, 
 and by that name of Kirkby Begogh the church, rectory, 
 and town, (containing then seven great carucates of land) 
 were given to the abbey of St. Marie's at York, by William 
 de Meschines, then Lord of Egremont barony, and by him 
 made a cell of York Abbey. t He also laid the first founda- 
 tion of the priory, and that church which now standeth 
 and endowed it. And his brotherj Randolph Meschines 
 gave lands in Annerdale, or Annanderdale, and half a 
 carucat of land in Egremont, and other nobles, barons, 
 and gentlemen of the county did afterwards contribute 
 unto the same, till it became, of a small foundation, a 
 priory of good revenue able to support a prior and six 
 monks there at all times and to defray all charges of 
 building and other necessaries of the house yet always as 
 cell of York untill it was dissolved by Hen. Sth. The 
 name Begogh is Irish, derived of two words Beg-og, which 
 by interpretation are englished Little Young. 
 
 The bounders of William Meschines aforesaid which he 
 gave the priory are in these words : " Totam terrain et totuin 
 Feodum inter has divisas viz : a pede de Whitofthaven ad Ketel 
 et per Ketel donee cadit in Egre et per Egre quousque cadit in

 Eynerdale. Alnanderdale is that which is now called 
 Eynerdale, a town and chapelry in the fells above Egre-

 RoTiNGTON. Rotington villa ad prata Rotinge, so called 
 because it was usually haunted with Barnacles, Rotgeese, 
 and wild fowl before it was inhabited. It it now the

 thereof of that name according to the following pedigree 
 viz :t 
 
 Their ancestor Sands in the year of King

 what house or name the Rotingtons came I cannot say 
 unless^ they were some younger brother of the Flemings 
 for it is a fee of Beckermet. I read in a deed in K. John's

 Whitehaven. Whithaven or Whit-toft-haven is a 
 creek in the sea at the north end of a great bergh or rising 
 hill there which is washed with the flood on the west side 
 where is a great rock or quarry of white hard stone which 
 
 * The Sands of Roting^ton (called in old writings de Sabulonibus) were originally 
 seated upon Burgh Sands where they had their capital house at a place called to 
 this day Sandsfield from which they took their sirname. 
 
 Sands the last heir male of that name being dissatisfied as 'tis said, with the 
 loss of a mistress, sold his estate at Rotington to Curwen of Workington, and 
 went into Ireland, where he died. And Rotington is now (1687) in the possession 
 of Henry Curwen of Workington Esq. being advanced by the Curwens to a far 
 greater value than it was in the hands of the Sands. The Curwens purchased it 
 for ;f 700 and it is now reckoned to be worth ,^300 p. an. GiLPIN.

 gives name to the village and haven. A very little rill 
 there falls into the sea which makes the harbour where 
 small b?,rks may enter and be defended by the hill from 
 the tempests and winds. It was belonging to St. Beghs 
 of antient time, for the Abbott of York in Edw. i^*. time 
 was impleaded for wreck, and his liberties there by the 
 King which he claimed from the foundation and to be 
 confirmed by Richard Lucy in K. John's time to his pre- 
 decessors.* 
 
 Hensingham. Hensingham or Hansingham Villa ad 
 pratinn Johannis is a manner and town there now pur- 
 chased by Thomas Salkeld of Satre, from Thomas Skelton 
 of Branthwaite. It was holden of the Abbott of St. 
 Marie's at York, per quartam partem feodi militis by the 
 Skeltons in the time of K. Hen. 6'", But Mr. Robert de 
 Branthwaite held a moiety thereof of Adam de Moresby, 
 4 Ed. i^'., together with the manner of Branthwaite, per 
 Servicium unius denarii per annum ad Natale Domini pro om- 
 nibus serviciis. It descended from the Branthwaites to the 
 Lords of Banton, and from thence to the Skeltons who 
 married the coheir of Thomas de Whitrigg, Lord of little 
 Banton. At the conquest one Gillesby or rather Gillesbred 
 held the same, whose sons Roger and William granted to 
 ye Abbey of York duas Bovatas in Hensingham et terrain de 
 de Snartheved. Hence came the tenure to the Abbott.

 Arlokenden. Arloghden now corruptly called Arloken- 
 den, Arnaden and Arladen, is parcel of the seignory of 
 Beckermit, a ffee thereof. The place was so named by the 
 Irish,* and gives name to the parish, town, and a family of 
 gentlemen called Harlakenden, of whose issue male there 
 are yet remaining some in the south parts. John le 
 Fleming gave the patronage of the rectory to Jollan abbot 
 of Caldre, in the 26 Hen. 3'''^. The lay fee was the in- 
 heritance of . . . whose three daughters and co-heirs 
 transferred their patrimony to the Harringtons, Lam- 
 plughs, and ... in King John's time. 
 
 Eynerdale. Eynerdale sallis ad Eyn, both the town and 
 parish now called by the inhabitants. The Irish named it 
 Lough-Eanheh Lacus vuliicrum, of the fowls that bred there 
 in the islands; and the river Oonh-Eanheh and the dale 
 Eanor or Ar-ean. The Saxons still retaining the Irish 
 name called the bottom and valley Enerdale. It was at 
 the Conquest desmene land of Copeland in William Mes- 
 chines time, but his sont Randolph Meschines gave it 
 to the Abbey of York, and half a carucat in Egremont, or 
 as I think but some part of Enerdale, for it was Harring- 
 ton's part of the demesn of Egremont in the partition of 
 John Multon's three co-heirs, and descended to the 
 Boyvills, and to the Grays and Parrs Marquess of Dorset,

 Kelton. Kelton or Ketelton, villa Ketelli, was first a 
 parcel of Lamplugh, and made a village by Ketellus, the 
 son of Eldred and Saltre the capital messuage and demesne 
 there was afterwards given by Gospatrick, the son of Orme 
 the son of Retell, to the Abbey of York in frank alms. 
 The Abbot made Satre a part of the cell of . . . But 
 Kelton continued always a lay ffee and is the inheritance 
 of one Moorhouse, grandchild to . . . wife to . . . 
 Moorhouse, sometime laundress to Queen . . who gave 
 Kelton to them and their heirs male. It escheated to the 
 crown for want of issue in the Lord Marquess of Northamp-

 the Harringtons of Harrington, and Adingham. Parr 
 was heir to the Marquis of Dorset Gray who had right 
 thereunto by Cicely the Lord William Boyville's daughter 
 and heir: her grandmother was daughter and heir to the 
 Harringtons of Harrington. Kelton was holden as a ffee 
 of Beckermit until the Lord Paramount's heir (3 copar- 
 ceners) Elizabeth daughter of Thomas Multon transferred 
 the seignory to Robert Harrington, and thereby ex- 
 tinguished the mesualty of the Lordship of Beckermit. At 
 the surpression of Abbies Dr. Lighe bought Saltre, and 
 now Thomas Salkeld brother to Lancelot Salkeld of the 
 Whitehall, doth enjoy the same by purchase from Hen. 
 Lighe son to Thomas son to William brother to the Dr. 
 
 Lamplugh. Lamplugh in the fells is that manor house 
 and seignory in the barony of Egremont which gave name 
 to the antient family of Lamplughs, a race of valorous 
 gentlemen successively for their worthyness knighted in 
 the field all or the most part of them. They bear for arms 
 a sable cross batuny fleurie in a field d'or. Their issue 
 male enjoyed the same from the Conquest or near that

 time to this day. The first Lord of Lamplugh that I read 
 of, was William de Lancaster, who exchanged Working- 
 ton and Lamplugh with Gospatrick the son of Orme, 
 Lord of Seaton beneath Derwent, for Middleton in Lons- 
 dale. This Wm. de Lancaster was a great baron, his 
 lands lay about Kendal, in Westmorland. He was a great 
 commander under Hen. 2"'^., in the wars against David of 
 Scotland and Earl Henry his son, in those parts, and 
 helped to recover the counties of Cumberland and 
 Northumberland from the Scots, which K. Stephen had 
 given them. By that exchange Lamplugh became the 
 Lord of Seaton's lands. The said Gospatrick held it all 
 his time, but after his death, his son Thomas gave it to 
 one Robert de Lamplugh and his heirs for paying yearly 
 a pair of gilt spurs to the Lord of Workington. This 
 Robert held it in Hen. z^^., and when Rich. i'''. reigned. 
 After Robert's death it descended to Adam his son in King 
 John's time. To which Adam Richard de Lucy, then 
 Lord of Egremont, and all Copeland, as Lord Paramount 
 of Lamplugh, confirmed the same and other things, as 
 Murton and Arlockden, unto him and his heirs, with 
 diverse immunities. After Adam it descended according 
 to the following unto John Lamplugh Esq., now Lord of 
 the same.

 The place was originally named Glan-Llough or Glan-

 word signifies the wet dale, Vallis humida, and thereof is 
 formed that present word Lamplugh or Lanflogh. 
 
 MuRTON. Murton or Moortown, villa ad Ericetum, is 
 next unto Lamplugh westward, and is now the inheri- 
 ance of John Lamplugh Esq. Of old his ancestors enjoyed 
 the same, and enjoyed great liberties thereby, as to arrest 
 and hold plea of greater nature than debt or detinue. Sir 
 John Lamplugh held the same in Ed. 2"^"^. time and before 
 I read of three of another family successively, grand- 
 father, father and son, Gerard, Roger and Adam de Morton 
 which have taken their sirname of the place. Morten is

 immediately. But Lamplugh itself of Workington. 
 
 LowESWATER. Loweswater lacus in valle vel proftmdo

 ville, for Loweswater and other lands. And in the 16 
 Edw. i^'. it was antient demesne of Egremont, and by the 
 partition between the two daughters and co-heirs of 
 Richard Lucy, it was allotted to the moiety of Alan Mul- 
 ton and Alice his wife as the 20th part of the barony of 
 Egremont. Thomas Multon, calling himself Lucy after 
 his mother's name, seated himself there, and bought of the 
 Moresbies, Brackenthwait, in exchange of the moiety of 
 Dissington, and also Thackthwaite, of an Agnes Dundraw 
 the wife of Roger Lindby, which he gave in marriage to 
 his sister Margaret the wife of Thomas Stanley, and her 
 heirs. Howbeit it reverted to the heirs of Thomas Lucy 
 and descended to Maud Lucy, who gave it and the rest of 
 her patrimony to her 2nd husband the Earl of Northum- 
 berland, in whose blood it continued till his posterity gave 
 the same to K. Hen. 8*., who sold it to one Robinson, 
 
 a priest whose heir did alien to Stanley, master of the 
 
 mint : Sir Edw. Herbert and his wife daughter and heir to 
 Stanley, sold it to Anthony Patrickson now lord thereof. 
 
 Moresby. Morisceby or Mauriceby, now Moresby, took 
 name first of one Maurice, who first seated himself there, 
 the ruins of whose mansion house yet appearing approves 
 the same. In that time when a gentleman placed his 
 capital messuage or mansion house forth of a town or an 
 antient village he named the same after his own name, as 
 this Mauriceby, and such other in the country, viz : 
 Gamelsby of Gamel, Etardby of Etard, Ormesby of Orme, 
 so Crosby, Canonby, Richardby, Botchardby, Scotby, 
 Terriby, Huberby, Alanby, &c., one part of the word re- 
 membermg their names and the termination Bee or By 
 their being a building there. And as the said Maurice 
 gave name to this place so in success of time the same 
 gave sirname to his successors there who were called 
 Moresbies or Morescebys, the eldest of which family that 
 I have yet read of was one Uckman, who gave land in 
 
32 EGREMONT. 
 
 Harrays and comon in Morisceby, to the Abbey of Holme 
 Cultram.* 
 
 DisTiNGTON. Distington, villa ad pratum Disting, lies 
 between Harrington and Moresby, it is so called of the low 
 wet meadow grounds there and was the inheritance of 
 Sir Gilbert, the son of Gilbert de Dundraw (who was son 
 to Odard Lord of Wigton barony, called Odardus de Logis), 
 he lived in Rich i" and K. John's time, and was Lord of 
 Distington, Dundraw, and Crofton. He gave lands to the 
 Abbey of Holme Cultram and the priory of Carlisle in 
 Distington and Crofton. He had issue Isolda wife to Adam 
 de Tinnow. They gave the fourth part of Distington and 
 the advowson of the rectory to Thomas, the son of Lam- 
 bert de Multon, An. 42 Hen. 3'"^. And he had issue, Ada 
 the wife of Stephen de Crofton, who gave their part of 
 Distington to Thomas de Moresby and Margaret Lucy his 
 wife, An. 6 Ed. i". Margaret did exchange it with her 
 brother Thomas Lucy, for lands in Thackthwait, and 
 Thomas the same with the Moresbies, for Brackenthwait 
 and Lowswater. 
 
 Harrington. Haverington, now Harrington, lies be- 
 tween Distington and Workington, and was at the Conquest 
 parcel of the inheritance of . . . Lord of . . . and 
 is holden of Workington. This place gave name to the 
 first of the Harringtons also Haveringtons of which house 
 there sprung divers families, as that of Wetherslack, of 
 
 * Moresby is now (16S7) the capital seat of the chief family of ye Fletcher's 
 William Fletcher Esq. being present Lord thereof as heir in the 3rd or 4th descent 
 to Henry Fletcher of . . . who purchased the same of . . . a.d. The 
 said Henry had 3 sons; from the eldest descended this present VVm. Fletcher, 
 from Lancelot his 2nd son came George, and from him Lancelot, and from him' 
 Henry now alive. They enjoyed Tallantire (which they had by purchase An. 
 from Dame Ratcliffe) and other lards to a considerable value near Cockermouth 
 which were after sold by George to Sir Richard Fletcher of Hutton his cousin 
 german, but Tallen tyre is still in their possession. And from Thomas the youngest 
 son of the sd first Henry, the Fletchers of Hutton are descended Wm 
 Fletcher present Lord of Moresby married one of the daughters of Sir Henry 
 Fletcher of Hutton, Bart. Gilpin. ■'

 Aldingham, in Fourness in Lancashire, of Beamont in 
 Cumberland, and one in Rutlandshire. The oldest were 
 Lords of Harrington, and married the heir general de 
 sanguine of Seaton, and therefore confirmed Flemingby 
 to the Abbey of Holm Cultram, but he got not the lordship 
 of Seaton, for his wife died in the grandfather's time who 
 gave the land to her uncle Patrick de Culwen. Afterwards 
 they married the sister and heir of William Cancessfield, 
 whose father Richard Cancessfield married AHcia the daur. 
 and heir of William and sister and heir of Michael Flem- 
 ing of Adingham, in Hen. 3"^= time. And in Ed, 3'^'^^ time 
 they married with the third co-heir of John de Multon 
 Lord of Egremont, and at the last a daughter transferred 
 the inheritance to the Bonvills, whose daughter Cicely did 
 in like sort the same with the Bonvills' lands to Thomas 
 Gray, son of John Marquis of Dorset. They held it three 
 descents and lastly it fell to the crown by escheat from the 
 death of Wm. Parr Marquis of Northampton. Another 
 Harrington married the daughter and one of the two co- 
 heirs of Bastingthwaite, whose last rebelled with Martin 
 Thwai'th ; another married the third co-heir of Robert 
 Brune of Bothill, and had her purparty. 
 
 Workington. Next unto Harrington, between it and 
 the foot of the river Darwent towards the sea, stands 
 Workington Hall, now the mansion house and chief seat of 
 Nicholas Curwen Esq., Lord of the manor of Workington 
 in the barony of Egremont, and of the manor of Seaton 
 on the other side of Darwent in the barony of Allerdale. 
 A gentleman* descended of an honourable and great parent- 
 age continually in the issue male from one Ketellus or 
 Ketell his first ancestor (that I read of), who lived in 
 William the Conqueror's time or in the days of William 
 Rufus his son the next king of England, about which time

 time I read of this Ketellus, but without any certainty of 
 his father or from whom he descended or in what place 
 or country he was seated. There was one Ketellus Lord 
 of Newton, and another Ketellus the son of Ulff, a wit- 
 ness to diverse antient evidences and deeds of feoffment 
 made near that time, which neither in respect of the time 
 nor place I may probably think to be the same. 
 
 The first Lord of Workington after the Conquest was 
 Wm. de Lancastre, who by the consent of William his son 
 and heir, gave the towns of Workington and Lamplugh to 
 Gospatrick the son of Orme the son of Ketell, in exchange 
 for the town of Middleton in Lonsdale in Westmorland, 
 where the said William de Lancastre had other large pos- 
 sessions. And he did reserve to himself and his heirs a 
 yearly rent of 6d. ad Nundinas Carleoli or a pair of gilt 
 spurs, and bound Gospatrick and his heirs to do him 
 homage and discharge his foreign service for the same to 
 the barony or castle of Egremont. To this deed of ex- 
 change was witness Ketell the son of Ulff. 
 
 To this Orme the son of Ketell, one Waldeof the son of 
 Gospatrick Earl of Dunbar in Scotland, and then being 
 Lord of Allerdale, by the gift of Earl Randolph Meschines 
 gave the manner of Seaton beneath Darwent, parcel of the 
 said barony in frank marriage with Gunhild his sister. 
 And the towns of Cambmerton, Graysothen, and Fleming- 
 by. 
 
 Seaton. And so became Seaton a mannor and the said 
 Orme first Lord (after the Conquest) of ye same. The 
 walls and ruins of his mansion house are to be seen there 
 at Seaton to this day. 
 
 The said Orme the son of Ketell had issue a son and 
 heir by his wife Gunhild the Lord Waldeof's sister, whom 
 he named Gospatrick after the name of Gunhild's father. 
 
 To this Gospatrick the son of Orme and his heir, his 
 cousin german Alan second Lord of Allerdale son and 
 heir to the said Waldeof gave high Ireby which continued 
 the Curwens' lands. 
 
EGREMONT. 35 
 
 The said Gospatrick the son of Orme, was the first of 
 his house that was Lord of Workington, by the aforesaid 
 exchange made with William de Lancastre, and second 
 Lord of the manor of Seaton. He had issue Thomas, 
 Gilbert, Adam, Orme, and Alexander, who took their sir- 
 names as the manner was in that age of their father's 
 name and were called Thomas fil Gospatricii, Gilbert fil 
 Gospatric, &c. 
 
 Gospatrick their father gave two parts of the fishing in 
 Darwent and Flemingby to the abbey of Holme Cultram, 
 with all the appendices except Waitcroft, which he gave to 
 the priory of Carlisle, which Waitcroft John then prior of 
 Carlisle regranted to Thomas fil Gospatrick his heir, to 
 be holden of the priory freely, paying yearly 7s. rent at 
 Pentecost and Martinmass. 
 
 Thomas son of Gospatrick, son and heir of Gospatrick, 
 succeeded his father in the inheritance. And had issue 
 Thomas the son of Thomas the son of Gospatrick, Pat- 
 rick, and Alan. 
 
 To this Thomas the son of Gospatrick, one Rolland the 
 son of Ughtred the son of Fargus sometime Lord of 
 Galloway, gave the great Lordship of Culwen in Galloway 
 in Scotland, in which grant the brothers of the said Thomas, 
 Alexander and Gilbert sons of Gospatrick, and Thomas 
 and William sons of the said Gilbert, are mentioned as 
 witnesses. The said Thomas the son of Gospatrick, con- 
 firmed his father's grant of Flemingby to the abbey and 
 convent of Holm Cultram, and gave them the whole fishing 
 of Darwent, which Thomas the son of Thomas, confirmed 
 unto them. And the said Thomas the son of Gospatrick 
 gave Lamplugh to Robert de Lamplugh and his heirs to 
 be holden of him by paying yearly two gilt spurs. And 
 he gave to Patrick his second son Culwen in Galloway. 
 
 Thomas son of Gospatrick, died Dec. 7, a.d. 1152, and was buried in Shapp 
 Abbey in Westmorland, to which he was a great benefactor. Sir D. F's MS. 
 
36 EQREMONT, 
 
 The said Patrick the son of Thomas the son of Gospat- 
 rick, by the death of his eldest brother Thomas, the son of 
 Thomas, succeeded as next heir to Thomas his father, and 
 was called Patrick* Culwen de Workington. He pulled 
 down the mannor house at Seaton, and dwelt thenceforth 
 at Workington. And from him all his posterity were called 
 in Culwen. He gave Cambmerton to his brother Alan1 
 which was before a parcel of Seaton and bounded it forth. 
 From that Alan the Cambmertons took their name. 
 Gilbert de Culwen the son of Patrick de Workington was 
 Sheriff of Cumberland 3 Ric. 2°^. 
 
 Brigham. Brigham villa ad pontem was one of the five 
 towns which William Meschines Lord of Copeland gave 
 to Waldeof Lord of Allerdale at the Conquest. Waldeof 
 gave Brigham to Dolphin (the son of Ailward, together 
 with little Crosby Applethwaite and Langrig), in frank 
 marriage with Matilda his sister. After some descents it 
 fell to sisters, for in the 40th year of Hen. t,^^ Beatrice de 
 Lowther and Thomas de Huthwaite gave their part of the 
 rectory of Brigham to Isabel Countess of Albermarle, then 
 Lady Paramount of Allerdale, who in the 8th Ed. i^' 
 impleaded Robert de Yenwith and Alice his wife for the 
 rectory, but after they agreed by a fine levied, that the 
 Countess and the heirs of Isabel the wife of Walter 
 Twinham, the daughter of the said Alice, the wife of Yen- 
 with, should present alternis vicibus. In the 8th Ed. i'" 
 Gilbert Huthwaite held the moiety of Brigham, and after 
 that the Swinburnes of Huthwaite ever enjoyed that part, 
 and it is this day in the possession of John Swinburn. 
 The other moiety descended from Walter Twinham to 
 Adam Twinham his son, who died seised thereof 35 Ed. 
 i«. And Walter the son of Adam Twinham gave the 
 rectory by fine unto John Harcla and his heirs 13 Ed. 2°'^

 the rectory was seised to the king, though he stood seised 
 in trust to the use of Henry Harcla son and heir to John 
 Harcla. 
 
 Wythope. Wythorpe salicum convallis was a wast 
 piece of Allerdale above Darwent, and consequently within 
 the barony of Egremont. It lies upon Darwent where it 
 becomes a greai: lake between Emelthwaite and Thorn- 
 thwaite. Dame Alice Lucy the second daughter and 
 co-heir of Richard Lucy, and wife to Alan de Multon, 
 second son to Thomas Multon, who married the widow of 
 Richard Lucy, gave Withorp and half of Whinfell, now 
 Lorton, the eighth part of Broughton and certain corn out 
 of Aspatrick mill, and three messuages and thirty acres of 
 land in Caldbeck, unto John Lucy her son by the said 
 Alan Multon, whom she named Lucy and not Multon, be- 
 cause that Lucy was the greater family. And, for that her 
 elder sister Annabell, who married Lambert Multon, did 
 continue the name and arms of Thomas Multon their 
 father in the family of Egremont, she caused her children 
 to be named Lucy and gave the Lucys' coat to her pos- 
 terity. She reserved of Withope a penny rent service or 
 a pair of spurs and after it was inhabited it was worth 
 £"10 per annum. The residue was worth ^^8 as. 2d., and 
 there she reserved a rent service of -^3 per annum. The 
 said John Lucy lived in the time of Hen. 3'''^ and Ed. i", 
 and dyed in the time of Ed. 2"*^, about the 8th year of his 
 reign. Hugh Lowther the son of Hugh Lowther enjoyed 
 Withope, for in the 8th year of Ed. 2,'"^, Christian the 
 widow of the said John Lucy sued him for her dower in 
 Wythope. It descended in the issue male of the Lowthers 
 unto Sir Richard Lowther, now knight, according to the

 Embleton. Embleton, above Darwent, villa Amabilice 
 lies next unto Wythope and Seatmurthow on the north-

 ALLERDALE BARONY. 
 
 The Barony of The Earl Randolph Meschines gave to 
 Allerdale. Waldeof the son of Gospatrick Earl of 
 Dunbarr in Scotland the great barony 
 of Allerdale, which lieth between the rivers of Darwent 
 and Wampool on the south and north parts, and on the 
 west side is compassed by the sea, and abutting on the east 
 side upon Dalston barony and Sebergham, where it is from 
 them divided by the brook called Shawk, which falleth 
 down northward into Wathempole or Wampol from Cald- 
 beck, and on the other side of the hill by Bowland Beck, 
 which falleth southward into Caldbeck beck. Then by the 
 same rill running eastward untill it fall into Caldy, which 
 river descending between it and Castle Sowerby, and the 
 barony of Greystock keeps them asunder there on the 
 east side of the mountain Carrak and Grysedale fells. 
 
 It is called Allerdale of the river Alne. It was antiently 
 writ Aln-er-dael, viz : the dale upon Aln. This syllable (er) 
 being interposed betwixt Aln and Dale which signifies 
 " ad " or " apud " at, or, upon, as in other names of places 
 of that country, as Miterdale, the Dale upon Mite. Eyner- 
 dale, the Dale upon Eyn; Ananderdale, contractly Aner- 
 dale, the Dale upon Anand ; Duddenerdale, Dunnerdale, 
 the Dale upon Dudden. 
 
 The Lord Wm. Meschines baron of Egremont, brother

 Gospatrick, all the lands between the rivers of Cockar and 
 Darwent, and the five towns, Brigham, Eaglesfield, Crake- 
 sothen. Dean, and Branthwaite, and the two Cliftons and 
 Stainborn, whereby they became united to Allerdale barony 
 and are commonly called Allerdale above Darwent, (tho' 
 they be within the fejirony of Egremont). As all the estate

 on the other side of Darwent, for distinction sake is now 
 commonly called Allerdale beneath Darwent. 
 
 Waldeuf first baron of Allerdale seated himself first at 
 Pap Castle* where he had a mansion house, but afterwards

 Waldeof brought from Jerusalem. 
 
 He gave also to Hen. 2^^ the forest ground of Allerdale 
 now called Westward, and the Holm Cultram. 
 
 To the Priory of St. Begogh he gave or confirmed his 
 father's gift of Stainburn. 
 
 To Randolph de Lindsey and his sister Ochtred he

 To Ughtred the son of Fergus Lord of Galloway with

 To Odard he gave Newton cum pertinentiis.

 And to Herbert, the third part of Thursby. 
 
 And to Dolfin, six oxgangs of land in High Crosby, to 
 be the king's sergeant or bayliff in Allerdale. 
 
 And he gave to his three huntsmen Sehff and his fellows, 
 Hayton. 
 
 Finally he died without issue male, therefore his nephew 
 William FitzDuncan Earl of Murray succeeded him in 
 his inheritance. 
 
 William Romeley (called also W° FitzDuncan), Earl 
 of Murray (who married Alice the daughter and heir of 
 
ALLERDALE. 43 
 
 Rob. Romeley Lord of Skipton in Craven, begotten by the 
 said Robert on his wife, the Lord W™ Meschines daugh- 
 ter and heir baron of Egremont or Coupland, and the Earl 
 Randolph Meschines brother), was the third baron of Aller- 
 dale and also of Egremont, and Lord of Skipton in right 
 of his wife. He had issue Wm. first (?) Lord of Egremont, 
 who died under age, and three daughters — Sybill or Cicely, 
 married to Wm. le Gros Earl of Albermarle with the 
 . honour of Skipton for her purparty by K. Hen. 2^^ — Anna- 
 bel married to Reginald Lucy, with the Seignory of 
 ' Egremont by the same king : and Alice Romeley first 
 married to Gilbert Pippard, with the honour of Cocker- 
 mouth, Aspatrick, and Allerdale, by the said King Henry, 
 and afterwards to Robert Courtney by the Queen. But 
 because the barony of Egremont was lesser in value than 
 Allerdale, Reginald Lucy had some part of the barony of 
 Allerdale (after the death of W™ FitzDuncan), but Dame 
 Alice Romeley his wife's sister was chief lady of the 
 seignory. 
 
 Alice Romeley the third daughter and co-heir of W™ Fitz- 
 Duncan was therefore the fourth lady of Allerdale. But 
 having no children alive at her death she gave away divers 
 mannors and lands to houses of religion and to her friends 
 and kinsmen. She had a son named William, who was 
 drowned in Craven coming home from hunting or hawking. 
 His hound or spaniel being tyed to his girdle by a line, (as 
 they crossed the water near Barden Tower in Craven), 
 pulled his master from off his horse and drowned him. 
 When the report of the mischance came to his mother, she 
 answered Bootless Bayl brings endless Sorrow. She had also 
 three daughters Alice, Avice, Mavice, who died all un- 
 married and without children. Wherefore the inheritance 
 was after her death parted between the house of Albemarle 
 and Reginald Lucy baron of Egremont, descending to her 
 sisters' children and their posterity. 
 
 A moiety of the barony of Allerdale came to W" de 
 
44 ALLERDALE. 
 
 Fortibus Earl of Albemarle, as son and heir to Hawise 
 daughter and heir lo Cybill or Cecill the sister of Dame 
 Alice Romeley, and after his death to W™ de Fortibus his 
 son, whose sole daughter and heir Avelina (wife to Edward 
 Crouchback, brother to K. Edward i^'.,) dying without 
 issue, that moiety thereupon came also to Thomas Lucy 
 and his heirs in the right of Annabel the second daughter 
 of W™ FitzDuncan, and sister to Alice Romeley. That 
 moiety contained Cockermouth and Papcastle and the fees 
 holden of them, viz., of Cockermouth — Brigham, Eagles- 
 field, Dean, Clifton, Crakesothen, Huthwaite, Collundland, 
 Ullaik, Branthwait, Embleton, Pardeshew, and other lands 
 above Darwent. And of Papcastle — Threpland, Holmes, 
 Castlerigg, Tallentyre, Broghton, Ribton, Ireby base, Bol- 
 ton, and Wigton, with their appurtenancies. 
 
 The other moiety of this barony descended to Alice and 
 Annabel Lucy daughters and co-heirs to Reginald Lucy 
 and Annabel his wife, sister to the said Alice Romeley, 
 whereby that moiety was subdivided. To Annabel Lucy, 
 Lambert Multon the son of Thomas succeeded. Lambert 
 had issue Thomas. Thomas had issue John Multon Lord 
 of Egremont, whose three daughters parted his lands 
 amongst them. Margaret the youngest of them was mar- 
 ried to the last Thomas Lucy, and united again the moiety 
 of Allerdale. 
 
 Alice Lucy the other daughter of Reginald Lucy had 
 issue Thomas Lucy, who had issue another Lucy, to whom 
 the other moiety of Allerdale deiX;ended by the death of 
 Avelina Countess of Albermarle. 
 
 Anthony Lord Lucy brother and heir to the last Thomas 
 Lucy, succeeded in the inheritance. He married Eliza- 
 beth the daughter of Robt Tilliolf Lord of Scaleby. This 
 Anthony Lucy was he who arrested Andrew Harcla Earl 
 of Carlisle in K. Ed. 2'^ time, and gave judgement up- 
 on him for his treason. He had issue Thomas, and died. 
 Thomas married Margaret one of the daughters of John

 DovENBY. Dovenbie or Dolphinby in Allerdale, was 
 first called of one Dolphin the son of Ailward who first 
 seated himself there and called the name of his mansion 
 house Dolphinby from his own name. His posterity were 
 called Dovenbies of the place corruptly instead of Dolphin- 
 bies. In Henry 2'^'^ time, one Richard de Dovenby 
 possessed the same, and his son Benedict de Bridekirk 
 confirmed to the Abbot of Caldre lands in Gilcrouse. 
 Waldeof first Lord of Allerdale gave unto the said Dolphin 
 the son of Ailward, with Maud his sister, Applethwait 
 besides Keswick, Little Crosby, Langrigg, and Brigham, 
 with the patronage of Brigham. Ailward his father seated 
 himself at Ailwardby, naming the place after his own name. 
 After the issue male of Dolphin were extinguished, which 
 was about the time of Hen 3"''' Dovenby fell by marriage 
 to the Rawlles or Rowles. In the 51st year of Hen 3'^'^ 
 one Roger de Rawll was possessed of Dovenbie. After 
 him one Alan de Rawll held the mannor of Dovenbie, in 
 the 33rd Ed i^', of Thomas Lucy. In the 23rd of Edw 
 3'''^, Richard Kirkbrydet was Lord of Dovenby, and died 
 then seised thereof, leaving his son Richard a ward. He 
 died ye 22nd Rich z^, or the ist of Hen 4"^. And by his 
 daughter or sister, Dovenby was transferred into the family 
 of the Lamplughs, she being married to a younger brother 
 of Sir Thomas Lamplugh of Lamplugh, in whose issue 
 male the right thereof remaineth at this day.

 Plumland and Sunderland, with their appurtenances. Alan 
 the son of Waldeof gave Ruthwait and the third part of 
 the wastes of Ishall to Gamel le Brun Lord of Bothil, 
 ad tertiani partem unius villcB. And he gave the principal 
 mannor of Isha.l\, cum pertinentiis Biencrake and the ser- 
 vices of Newton to Radulph Engayne. Radulph had issue 
 William Engayne, and he a daughter named Ada mother 
 to Sir Hugh Morvill. Of her it is written (by a monk) that 
 in the old age of her husband she was greatly enamoured of 
 one Lyolf, a young gentleman that served her husband 
 whom by no means she could persuade to abuse himself to- 
 wards his master, he dutifully avoiding every occasion that 
 might further her desire. But being commanded one day by 
 his master to carry a dish of meat to her when she kept her 
 chamber : after he was entered, she caused a gentlewoman to 
 make fast the door and forthwith shamed not to move him 
 to lye with her, as often times before she had done. But 
 he continued resolutely faithfull to his master, and would 
 not consent for anything she could do or say. Where- 
 upon fearing that he would discover her lewd incontinency 
 and turning her inordinate lust into revenge, she presently 
 made her gentlewoman to make a great outcry. When 
 her husband heard them he came into the chamber with 
 his servants and in great rage asked the cause of such 
 disquietness. She accused the young gentleman that he 
 would have ravished her, and thereupon he commanded 
 him to be bound and cast into a lead full of scalding 
 water. Sir Hugh Morvill his son by that wife, afterwards 
 killed Thomas Beckett the Archbishop of Canterbury, 
 wherefore the monks of that time gladly took hold of what- 
 soever might disgrace him or his parents to posterity.* 
 
 After Radulph Engayne, the estate fell to William his 
 son, and from him to Sir Hugh Morvill's father in the

 right of the said Ada Engayne his wife, and by her death 
 to Sir Hugh Morvill himself, and after his death with his 
 daughters and co-heirs to Sir Richard Lucy Lord of Egre- 
 mont and Sir Richard Waryne or Werune, who enjoyed 
 the same together with the barony of Burgh, and after 
 them it fell to Thomas the son of Thomas de Multon, (as 
 will hereafter appear in the title of Burgh). Thomas de 
 Multon in the time of Hen. 3'^'^ entailed Ishall and Blen- 
 crake with the appurtenancies to his two younger sons 
 Edward and Hubbert, and their heirs general successively. 
 And so lost the lords of Ishall the services of Newton, 
 because that tenure remained in the granter Thomas Mul- 
 ton and his heirs as it had to him descended. 
 
 By that intail Hubert Multon enjoyed Ishall, and William 
 his son after him, whose daughter Margaret brought the 
 inheritance into the family of the Lighes in Ed 2^ time, 
 whose issue male have enjoyed it till old Thomas Lighe, 
 the last of that name, gave it to his wife Maud Redmain, 
 whom he married being a widow, after the death of his 
 first wife, a lusty young gentlewoman, who granted it 
 presently after his death to Wilfred Lawson, her present 
 husband.* 
 
 * Maud Redmain the widow of old Thomas Leigh of Ishall being- possessed of 
 the inheritance as appears by the context, soon after married Wilfreij Lawson, and 
 as frankly conveyed over the inheritance to him as she had received it of Leigh, 
 which Wilfred, (afterwards Sir Wilfred), having no issue by the sd Maud his wife, 
 settled his estate upon William Lawson, a kinsman of his own, to the great dis- 
 gust of Mary Irton, (heir general of Maud Redmain), who had long time before 
 continued in hopes that he would have settled it upon her, but being disappointed 
 in that she attempted to recover it by law agst William, pretending that Maud 
 Redmain had not made a legal conveyance to Sir Wilfred, and that what she did 
 was the effect of horrible threatenings and violence. But the suit was at last 
 ended by composition, William Lawson giving her for her title the tithes of Blen 
 crake and the demesne of Threlkeld, worth together about ,^200 per annum. 
 The pedigree of the Lawsons of Ishall 
 
 William Lawson married the daughter of Bewly of Heskat in Caldbeck, and 
 had issue by her Sir Wilfrid Lawson, Knt. now (16S7) Lord of Ishall. Sir Wilfrid 
 Lawson purchased Heskat hall and married ye daughter of Sir Edward Mus- 
 grave, of Hayton, Knt., (the father of William, the father of Sir Edward Mus- 
 grave, Bart, the father of Sir Richard now living), by whom he had issue William, 
 
 Wilfrid, Edward, Henry, and George, and daughters 
 
 William the oldest son of Sir Wilfrid Lawson married Strickland, 
 
 daughter of Sir . . . Strickland, and became blind and died in the lifetime of

 Threpland. Threpland, contentionis terra, is now a 
 village and the inheritance of John Salkeld, a younger 
 brother of Lancelot Salkeld of Whitehall. He holds it 
 of AUerdale barony and had it by purchase from Lancelot 
 Skelton of Arminthwait Esq. It descended to him by 
 several descents of the Skeltons from Thomas Skelton a 
 younger brother who married the co-heir of Henry Multon 
 Knt and Margaret his wife, in Ed 3"''^ time. Multon and 
 his wife had it by fine from W™ de Rednesc alias Mul- 
 castre, An. 15 Ed 2. And the said W" Thomas and 
 John Mulcastre brethren successively had it before Mul- 
 ton by the gift of Michael de Harcla in the time of Ed. 
 IS', father to Andrew Earl of Carlisle. 
 
 Uldale. The mannor of Ulndale lyeth above Bolton, 
 and is so called of the river Eln running through the 
 same, which river is diversely named as Elne, Alne, and 
 Olne, (the Romans named it Olena), and from thence the 
 valley thereof is called Ulndale. This mannor (being a 
 parcel of the barony of AUerdale), together with the man- 
 nor of Gilcrouse, was given by Waldeof the son of Earl 
 Gospatrick, unto Adam the son of Lyolf brother of 
 Phorme the son of Lyolf baron of Greystoke, from which 
 Adam they descended by a daughter to the Bonckhills, who 
 granted forth Gillcrouse to a younger brother Robert 
 Bonekill : And the sons of the said Robert, Thomas 
 Bonekill and Walter, gave away their inheritance in 
 Gilcrouse to the abbey of Caldre, which Ranulph Bone- 
 kill Knt., then Lord Paramont both of Ulndale and 
 Gilcruse, confirmed to the abbot. Sir Ranulph had issue 
 Alexander, who had issue Adam, who gave Awerthvvait 
 parcel of his mannor of Ulndale to the priors of Carlisle 
 
 his father leaving- on Wilfrid and two daug-hters. Sir Wilfrid Lawson purchased 
 a baronet's patent and dyed Dec. i, i6SS, leaving his estate and honour to Sir \V. 
 L. Bart., his grandcl ild. Wilfrid the second son of Sir Wilfrid Lawson had by the 
 gift of his father Bray ton and other lands of equal value with the paternal which 
 
 he now enjoys. He married the daughter of ... . James, 
 
 of Washington, in the county of Durham, by whom he has issue. Gilpin. 
 
ALLERDALE. 49 
 
 The said Adam had issue another Alexander Bonekill 
 whose daughter and heir first married to John Stewart 
 kinsman to the King of Scots, and afterwards to David 
 Bregham a Scottish knight of great valour, and by him 
 transferred the inheritance to the family of the Breghams. 
 This David Bregham was a companion of W'" Walleys 
 that was executed for treason at London, committed against 
 Edw. i*^' by resisting that king's attempt for the superior 
 Lordship of Scotland, and by taking part with Robert 
 Bruce against the Balliols' right to the crown of Scotland. 
 Walleys was a man of extraordinary strength, and David 
 Bregham an extraordinary good horseman, whereupon the 
 Scots thus rymed on them : 
 
 The man was ne'er so wight or good 
 But wurthy Walleys durst him byde 
 Nor never horse so wyld or wood 
 But David Bregham durst hin ryde. 
 
 David Bregham thereby forfeited his estate to Anthony 
 Lord Lucy, then Lord of AUerdale. And so Ulndale again 
 became parcel of that antient barony, and the manor 
 extinguished of right. Yet it was continued as a manor 
 by the Lucies posterity and the Piercys Earls of Northum- 
 berland untill the sixth Henry of that name gave his 
 inheritance to Hen. 8*, which king granted forth the man- 
 nor of Ulndale to Thomas Dalston and Eleanor his 2"** 
 wife, and to the heirs of their two bodies, and now Chris- 
 topher Dalston gent, their heir as in their right enjoyeth 
 the same. 
 
 BoTHiLL. Bothill was demesne of AUerdale till Waldeof 
 Lord of AUerdale gave the town to Gamel the son of 
 Brun in Hen. i^' time, whose posterity enjoyed the same 
 in the issue male. His father's chief mansion was at 
 Brunskeugh beneath the river Eden near the wastes. 
 Whereupon Radulph the son of Gamel was called Ranulph 
 de Feritate, Rauf of the waste, and so his son Robert 
 de Feritate. They were Lords of Glasson, Beaumont, 
 
50 ALLERDALE. 
 
 Drurnburgh, and Bowness, which they held of the Lords 
 of Brough. In Hen. 3'^'^ and Ed. i^' time, one Richard 
 Brun was Lord of Bothill and of the. sixth part of Tor- 
 penhow and the premises, and after that Robert Brun, in 
 Ed. 3"^^ time. Afterwards Bothill and the Bruns' lands fell 
 to three co-heirs married to Nicholas Harrington brother 
 or kinsman of the Lord of Harrington, W™ Culwen of 
 Workington, and Thomas Bowet. In the part of Nicholas 
 Harrington succeeded James who died 5th Hen. 5*, and 
 after James, Sir Rich. Harrington Knt. 7th Ed. 4*'', and 
 it is now in the possession of Thomas Denton of Warnhill. 
 To W™ Culwen's part succeeded his heirs of Workington 
 till Sir Henry Culwen Knight, father of Nicholas, sold the 
 same to Anthony Barwis of Hildkirk Esq. Bowet's part 
 of Bothill is now enjoyed by Thomas Ellys, whose ances- 
 tor W™ Ellys purchased the same of Nicholas Bowet by 
 fine levyed 8th Ed. 4*. 
 
 The town stands on the side of a hill, where in old times 
 the watch was kept day and night for sea wake, which 
 service was performed by the county beneath Darwent at 
 that place, and above Darwent in Coupland at Buthill, or 
 Bothill in Milium and at Bothilton in Egremont barony. 
 It is called Servituim de Bodis in old evidences, whereupon 
 Bothill was named the Bode or Both-hill, and a village at 
 the foot of it Bothillton — Bodorum Collis. The country 
 people call a lantern a bowet, which was a name then in 
 use for a light on the shore to direct sailors in the night ; 
 properly signifying a token, and not a light or lantern. As 
 they call a message warranted by a token a bode-word at 
 this day. And the watchmen be called bodesmen, because 
 they had a bode or watch word given them for the enemies 
 fraud in the night. 
 
 ToRPENHOW.* Torpenhow was at the Conquest of

 Alan the son of Waldeof gave the same in frank marriage 
 with Gunhyld his sister to Ughtred the son of Fargus 
 Lord of Galloway to be holden by him and bis heirs by 
 cornage and other services. In Hen. 2*^= time, one Philip 
 de Valomes in the right ov his wife held the same of 
 Reginald Lucy and Annabel his wife, who had the moiety 
 of AUerdale till the King seised the tenure. And in King 
 John's time Robert Stuteville brother to the Lord Nicholas 
 Stuteville (Lord of Lyddall barony) held it. An. 31 Hen. 
 3"^, W™ the son of William de Ulfesby gave three caru- 
 cats of land there to Robert Mulcastre, and held five parts 
 of Torpenhow, (Brun held the other sixth part which he 
 adjoined to his manner of Bothill) of the said Lord of 
 Lyddall heir to Stuteville. The said five parts descended 
 to the Mulcastres, and from them to the Tilliolfs, whose 
 co-heirs transferred the same with other lands to the 
 families of the Moresbies and Colvilles. 
 
 It is called Tor-pen-how, every syllable of which word 
 in the several languages of the people which successive- 
 ly did inhabit the place doth signify after a sort one 
 thing. The Britons who were the first inhabitants call a 
 rising topped hill (such an one as is there) Pen, i.e., a head. 
 The Saxons next succeeding them, and not well under- 
 standing the signification of Pen, called it Tor-Pen, i.e., 
 the pinacle Pen. And they who came next, perhaps under- 
 standing neither of the former names, called it (as we do 
 yet) Torpenhow, i.e., the how or hill Torpen. Others have 
 thought it so named upon this occasion: the Saxons 
 called a village dorp, or rather thorp, and finding a hill 
 there to be called of the Britons (their forebears) Pen a 
 head or hill top, they named it Dor-pen-how, the Town hill. 
 Others will have it named of one Turpe, whom they sup- 
 pose to have been lord thereof, of which name they find 
 upon record one Robert Turpe sometime Lord of Eden- 
 hall, but with better probability they may conjecture 
 Edenhall to have been first a country village and therefore 
 
52 ALLERDALE. 
 
 the said Robert to be rightly called Robert de Dorpe, and 
 he and his ancestors might cause his house and that 
 dorp or village afterwards to be called Edenhall, or the 
 hall upon Eden, after his ancestors had seated themselves 
 there and built a hall or capital messuage or mansion 
 house.* 
 
 Bolton or Bothilton. Bolton or Bothilton was an- 
 tient demesne of Allerdale till Adam the son of Waldeof 
 gave the same to Robert Bastingthwait, and the Isle of 
 Estholm to his bastard brother Gospatrick the son of 
 Waldeof, one of whose posterity took the name of Basten- 
 thwait. I read of divers knights of that name, one Sir 
 Robert de Bastenthwait in Hen. . . . time, and Adam 
 his son, and one Alexander in Ed. i'** time. The said 
 Gospatrick seated himself at Bolton, from whom it des- 
 cended unto the Lascells by Christian the wife of Duncan 
 in Rich, i*^' time : and to Thomas in Hen. 3"^"^ time. 
 Thomas de Lascelles his son Lord of Bolton married 
 Christian daughter of W" de Ireby, and confirmed to ye 
 abbott and monks of Holm Cultram the hermitage of St. 
 Hyld, now called Hildkirk, and granted them common in 
 Bolton. His widow Christian Ireby the daughter of W™ 
 dyed 33rJ Ed. i^* seised of Heslespring in Westward, 
 Gamelsby and Unthank beyond Eden, and of Market Ireby, 
 which Ireby she held of John Boyvill of Thoresby. In 
 Ed. 2°*^^ time Roger Mowbray Lord of Bolton forfeited his 
 estate therein by taking a part with Robert Bruce. After 
 it came to his son Robert Mowbray in Ed. 3'"'^ time, and to 
 Alexander Mowbray, and after to the Nevills, 12 Ric. 2°'^.t 
 John Nevill of Raby died seised of Bolton and the Mowbray 
 lands in Gamelsby and Unthank. In the 22nd of that 
 
 * I read of one Adam de Torpenhow, but I know not whether he was father of 
 Alice Stutevill or issue male to Ughtred Valones or Stuteville. Roger de Quincy 
 constable of Scotland in the rig-ht of his wyfe, one of the daughters and fieirs of 
 Allan son of Roland son of Ughtred, had the tuition of Sybill de Valones, and

 Lord Latimer, of the name of the Nevills.* 
 
 Caldbeck. Caldbeck was long after the Conquest a 
 wast forest ground parcel of Allerdale. It is a dale lying 
 between Warnell Fell and the mountains Carrick and 
 Grisedale Fells. It was first called Caldbeck of a rill or 
 beck that falleth down eastward through the same into 
 Caldey, and therefore Caldey Beck contractly Caldbeck : or 
 of the coldness of the place which is for most part in win- 
 ter covered with snow, and therefore called the Coldbeck,

 taineth that dale now inhabited, and a great part of the 
 mountains of Mosdale and Grisedale untill the White- 
 Water Dash at the head of Alne or Elne that falleth into 
 Ulndale. The two dales on the east side of the mountains 
 are hence named viz : Mosdale of a great moss ground 
 there, and Grisedale of a store-house there, which the 
 barons of Greystoke held of Caldbeck, where they kept 
 their sheep, cattle, and swine, and suffered the porklins 
 to run wild in the woods that grew in the skirts and borders 
 of the mountains. 
 
 Out of Westmorland and the east parts of Cumberland 
 there lay (as yet there doth) an highway or beaten street 
 through Caldbeck into the west country of Cumberland, 
 which was dangerous to passengers, who were often robbed 
 in that place which was much haunted by thieves in the 
 woods and mountains there, whereupon Randulph Engayne* 
 the chief forester of Englewood granted to the prior of 
 Carlisle license to build there an hospital for the relief of 
 poor travellers that might happen to be troubled in these 
 thievish parts or annoyed by the storms or snow in winter. 
 And he further gave liberty to the prior to inclose a part 
 of the same, which he did where the church stands at this 
 time, which inclosure became part of the glebe of the 
 church. The prior procured not his consent for the right 
 of the soil but without his consent it could not be inclosed, 
 for that great large deer lodged continually in the moun- 
 tains and woods there, and it was then used as a park 
 or forest ; and the right of the soil was in the barons of 
 Allerdale. After this hospital was built they founded the 
 church to the honour of St. Mungo ; and the place became 
 fully inhabited in that part of the same called Caldbeck 
 Uppeton. And afterwards it grew inhabited under the fell 
 sides, which later buildings they called Caldbeck Underfell.

 First that part towards Greystock, as Hesket* and Halt- 
 clugh, was brought to tillage as best fitting for corn which 
 is^he lower end of the dale, andUhereforth the' hamlet at 
 the church standing higher in the] dale was called Cald- 
 beck up in the town, and contractly Uppeton. 
 
 The priors became patrons of the rectory by the grants 
 and confirmations of William de Vescy and Burga his 
 wife, and Dame Alice Romeley Lady of Allerdale. They 
 then dissolved the hospital and endowed the church with 
 the lands thereof, about King John's time. In Hen. 3'''^^ 
 time one John Francigena, Francois, or French, a kins- 
 man of Gilbert Francois Lord of Routhcliff was parson 
 there and got a great inclosure in Warnhill bank in the 
 forest of Englewood, which he joined to the glebe, but the 
 monks of Holm so quarrelled him that he was glad to 
 part stakes and gave them that moiety of the same which 
 is now called Friar Hall, and kept that moiety to himself 
 called the Parson's park. 
 
 K. Hen. 8*^ sold Caldbeck Uppeton to Thomas Dais- 
 ton de Caldbeck; and Caldbeck Under Fell to Thomas Ld. 
 Wharton and his heirs, who being warden at that time of 
 these West Marches so treated the said Thomas Dalston 
 that he was glad to sell him Uppeton also, and now Philip 
 Lord Wharton his grandchild enjoyeth the same. After- 
 wards in the time of Qu. Mary, the Earl of Northumberland 
 granted the reversion of Caldbeck to him and his heirs 
 male. 
 
 * I have seen an old brass seal belonging- to the Bewlies (fenes Wilfrid Lawson 
 de Brayton who now enjoyes the estate of Heskat, by the gift of Sir Wilfrid Law- 
 son, Knt. and Bart, his father, who purchased the same of the Bewlies his mother's 
 kinderd), the seal is this coat of arms (arg. a chevron between three daws heads 
 erased sable), but the inscription about it is (in the German character used in 
 England about 200 years ago) SigMuvi jFohamiis Sutton, so that (it seems) the 
 Bewlies had this coat from the Suttons, together with the estate by the heirs 
 general. Gilpin. 
 
 It is now called Hesket Newmarket, from a market lately set up there, and 
 in contradistinction to another Hesket in the forest of Englewood. It was accord- 
 ing to Mr. Gilpin, formerly the estate of the Suttons, and descended from them 
 by the heirs general to the Bewlies. Sir Wilfrid Lawson, of Ishall, Bart., (whose 
 mother was a Bewley), purchased it of his mother's relations, and gave it to 
 Wilfred Lawson, Esq., of Brayton, his 2nd son (afterwards Sir Wilfred), in whose 
 family it is, 1749. Milbourne MS.

 Ireby. Ireby, Camden saith it was called Arbeia in ye 
 time of the Romans. Their band of soldiers called the 
 Barcarii Tigrienses were then placed there. At the Con- 
 quest it was a gentleman's seat, and a village, and then 
 called Ireby, and now it is become two mannors, High 
 Ireby, in old evidences called Alta Ireby, because it stands 
 higher on the hill : and Low Ireby, in antient writings 
 named Ireby Base, and Market Ireby also, of a liberty to 
 hold a fair and market there granted by the King . . 
 to . . . Lord thereof, and ever since continued. The 
 High Ireby is more antient, howbeit the other is seated in 
 the better place : and being land of greater men successively 
 hath always been of more account and hath some deal 
 obscured the other. 
 
 High Ireby. High Ireby was parcel of the demesne 
 of Allerdale in Waldeof's time, and Allan his son and heir 
 granted it to Gospatrick the son of Orme Lord of Seaton 
 and Workington. The same Gospatrick gave it to his 
 younger son Orme the son of Gospatrick who was there- 
 upon called Orme de Ireby, and from him all the Irebys 
 are descended and take their sirname. Robert de Courtney 
 and Dame Alice his wife one of the three co-heirs of 
 William FitzDuncan Lord of Allerdale gave to this Orme 
 de Ireby Emelton in Rich. 1=^' time. And he held lands in 
 Waverton. He had issue Adam his heir, and William a 
 priest that gave lands in Gilcruce to the Abbey of Holm 
 Cultram. Adam had issue Thomas his heir, and WiUiam 
 and Allan, father of Isaac who gave his dwelling house in 
 Ireby (called Isaacby, now Prior Hall), to the priory of 
 Carlisle. Thomas had issue John, and he Thomas, the 
 father of W™ Ireby (the last Lord of that name of Ireby 
 Alta that I read of). Lord of Gamelsby and Glassenby. 
 
 Ireby Base. Ireby Base, or Market Ireby, is now 
 Musgrave's lands of Crookdake, and was the Tilliofs' from 
 the death of Robert Tilliof, that died 39 Ed. ^'■^. Robert 
 had it of Thomas Middleton the son of Peter the son of 
 
ALLERDALE. 57 
 
 Adam, to whom Christian the daughter of W" de Ireby 
 then wife of Robert Bruse, and late widow to Thomas Fitz- 
 Duncan Lasciell of Bolton gave it by fine 33 Ed. 1='. She 
 held it of W" Boyvill of Thoresby Knt. whose father 
 Guido Boyvill married the heir general of the Thoresbies ; 
 whose ancestor one Herbert de Thoresby had first made 
 it an assart in the forest and rented it to the King. W" 
 de Ireby was but a younger brother, but was advanced by 
 K. John to a far better estate than his eldest brother, who 
 also made him Knight and preferred him to the marriage 
 of Odard's daughter and heir, Lord of Glassonby and 
 Gamelsby, then the King's ward.* 
 
 Blennerhasset and Uckmanby. Blennerhasset and 
 Uckmanby was parcel of AUerdale, which Alan Fitz- 
 Waldeof gave unto Radulph de Lindsey with ye sister of 
 ye said Alan named Ochtreda in frank marriage. From 
 them the inheritance came into the Mulcastres. In the 
 time of King H. 3^^ Robert de Mulcastre held the same. 
 After him Wm his son who had issue Walter, and he 
 
 * Market Ireby is now (1687) the inheritance of Sir John Ballantine of Crook- 
 dake, who married Ann, one of the daughters and co-heirs of William Musgrave, 
 last lineal heir male of the Musgraves of Crookdake, and purchased of the other 
 
 two co-heirs Chartres Askeugh their respective 
 
 purparties. 
 
 From Robert de Tilliol aforesaid, it descended to Peter his son, whose son 
 Robert the fool (last heir male of the Tilliols) dying without issue, 14 H. 6th, 
 A.D. 1433, the Tilliols' lands were divided between Isabel the wife of John Colvil, 
 and Margaret the wife of James Moresby, the two daughters and co-heirs of Peter 
 de Tilliol. Ireby was allotted inter alia to Isabel from whom it descended to Wm. 
 Colvill alias Tilliol her son, who dying Ig Ed. 4th, A.D. 1479, without issue male, 
 his two daughters, Phillip the wife of William Musgrave, and Margt. the wife of 
 Nicholas Musgrave inherited his estate. From Nicholas Musgrave and Margaret 
 his wife Sir Richard Musgrave of Hayton is descended in the right line (v. title 
 Scaleby). But Ireby was allotted to the elder sister Phillis, from whom it descended 
 according to the ensuing pedigree :

 Newton. Newton in Allerdale is now the inheritance 
 of Edward Musgrave second son to William and his wife 
 Isabel Martindale, one of the co-heirs of . . . Martin- 
 dale, last of that name Lord of Newton. To him it 
 descended from one Roger Martindale his ancestor, who 
 married the daughter and heir of Thomas de Newton lord 
 thereof in Ed. 3'''^^ time, which Thomas and his ancestors 
 lineally descending from father to son enjoyed the same 
 from the time of K. Stephen untill the death of Thomas 
 fil Thom, fil Rich, fil Adam, fil Rich fratris Adam fil 
 Retell de Newton fil Odard de Wigton, to which Odard 
 Alan 2nd Lord Paramount of Allerdale gave Newton, and 
 afterwards granted the seignory thereof to Radulf Engayne 
 with Ishall. The said Retell gave to Alan of Hensingham 
 his third son a piece of land where he first built his capital 
 messuage and named it Al .... (Alanby), now that 
 township so called to this day . . the inheritance of 
 William the son of . . . who married another co-heir of 
 Martindale. 
 
 Holm Cultrum. The Holm Cultrum was waste forest 
 ground replenished with red deer, and a demesn of Aller- 
 dale at the Conquest. Howbeit it seems by the charters of 
 the Abbey that it was the soil and inheritance of Henry 
 Earl of Carlisle son to David Ring of Scots that died 
 before his father, (for Malcolm the Maiden succeeded his 
 grandfather David in the Ringdom of Scotland, as eldest 
 son to the said Henry and next heir to the Ring). In the 
 time of Stephen, when he usurped the state of Engtetnd, 
 he gave Cumberland to the Scots to be assured of their 
 friendship. And this Earl Henry then gave two parts of 
 Holme Cultrum to the abbot and monks there and granted 
 
6o ALLERDALE 
 
 the third part thereof to Alan the son of Waldeof for his 
 hunting there, which Allan then lord of Allerdale gave 
 instantly the said third part to the Abbey as that which 
 the"said Henry FitzDavid had given him at the foundation 
 thereof. And Waldeof the son of the said Alan consented 
 to the grant with his father which the said Henry con- 
 firmed and David and Malcolm aforesaid. 
 
 At the death of King Stephen Henry FitzEmpress the 
 2nd of that name King of England entered upon Cum- 
 berland, which K. Stephen had before given to David 
 King of Scots, and therefore the monks acknowledged him 
 their founder. He granted them by his charter totam 
 Insulani de H olmcultnim et Raby by their right bounds 
 timber and pasture in the forest of Englewood, which his 
 gift K. Rich, and King John his sons and successors in 
 the kingdom also confirmed with many liberties expressed 
 in their letters patent without mention of any act done by 
 the Scots. It was then bounded by that little syke of 
 water that falls into Wampool at Kirkbride ascending up 
 into Cockley as the moss and hard ground meet. Thence 
 it goes into the middle of the moss between Wathholm 
 and Lawrenceholme and so by the moss and wood to Anter- 
 potts. Thence down Waver unto Crompbeck, Thence 
 up Crompbeck till it receive Wythskeld, so up that syke 
 unto the head thereof, then turning west unto a syke that 
 compasselh Mealdriggs on the north and west side till it 
 fall into Pow-Newton, so as Pow-Newton falls into the 
 sea, thence along the coast unto the foot of Wampool, and 
 so up Wampool unto Kirkbride aforesaid. All this was 
 the first foundation of the Kings, wherein those monks pre- 
 sently erected five granges for husbandry, viz : Old Grange, 
 Grange de Terms, Maybergh, Skinburn and Calfhow, and 
 Raby, and turned all into arable meadow and pasture.* 
 
 Shortly after Gospatrick the son of Orme gave them a

ALLERDALE. 6l 
 
 part of his manner of Seaton and the chapel there and 
 the town of Kelton, and his son Thomas a fishing in . . 
 . . He exchanged also with them Waitcroft for the said 
 Kelton. Sir Hugh Morvill gave them his rectory of Burgh 
 which they did appropriate to their house. And his daugh- 
 ter Joan and his successors a salmon fishing in Eden. 
 Sir Hugh Morvill also gave them pasture in Lasingby for 
 500 sheep, ten kine, and ten oxen, and certain lands for 
 their young cattle of a year old. 
 
 Reginald Carliel gave them Newby on the moor which 
 his cousin Richard the son of Richard the son of Troit gave 
 him. 
 
 Robert Turpe gave them land and pasture for 700 wea- 
 thers in Edenhall. 
 
 Richard de Elneburgh and William son of Simon 
 Sheflings Lords of Elneburgh and Dearham gave them 
 a fishing at the mouth of the river Alne. 
 
 Henry FitzArthur FitzGodard Lord of Milium gave 
 them Leakley in Milium which belongs to Seaton nunnery 
 there. S"^ Gilbert FitzGilbert de Dundragh gave them 
 lands and pasture for 600 sheep in Distington. 
 
 And Adam de Harrays at Branstibeck and Hugh Mores- 
 by in Distington. 
 
 1257. Robert de Bruce his fishing in Tordoff in Annan-

 Waldevus the son of Gamel the son of Welp gave them 
 a grange in Kirkby Thwar. 
 
 Adam the son of William de Newton, gave them com- 
 mon of pasture in Newton. 
 
 Thomas de Bromfield and Adam his son land and pasture 
 in Bromfield. 
 
 Margaret daur. of John de Wigton the rectory of Wig- 
 ton which they appropriated.

 Hberties in the forest of Englewood. 
 
62 ALLERDALE [wIQTON] . 
 
 And K. Hen. 3'''*. Freerhall at Caldbeck. 
 
 Lambert de Waverton and other freeholders there gave 
 much land in great Waverton. 
 
 Richard Earl Strongbow and John de Curcy lands and 
 liberties in Ireland. 
 
 Ughtred FitzFergus Lord of Galloway gave them the 
 town of Kirkgunnyon there ; and divers others in Scotland, 
 as W" FitzMichael de Kirkonnell, lands in Kirkonel ; 
 Patrick FitzThomas of Workington, Lochentor or Locho- 
 tor; the Bp. of Glasgow the chapel of Kirkguiam; Durant 
 FitzChristina Mayby in Kirkonnell. 
 
 And divers other persons gave lands in Cumberland. 
 Thus in short time they encreased their possessions to a 
 great revenue yearly which maintained a lord abbott and 
 monks. They built them a church and the whole scite of 
 the abbey of free stone which continued till these our times 
 that K. Hen. 8'*^ took down the habitations and made the 
 church serve the inhabitants as a parochial church, but 
 now the same is also utterly defaced for the steeple lately 
 fell down through age and they burnt the church with fire. 
 The rectory Q. Mary gave to the University of Oxford. And 
 the seignory of Holm Cultrum remaineth yet in the king's 
 hands but all the other land and commodities in England 
 ai-e sold to strangers by the kings predecessors. 
 
 WiGTON. Wigton was antient demesn of Allerdale till 
 Waldew the son of Earl Gospatrick gave that barony unto 
 Odard de Logis. It containeth Wigton, Waverton, Blen- 
 cogo, Dundraw and Kirkbride, with their appurtenances, 
 which live townships are several mannors within them- 
 selves known by metes and bounds and lye within the 
 barony of Wigton. 
 
 Odardus built Wigton church and endowed the same. 
 He lived unto K. John's time. K. Hen. i^* confirmed 
 Waldew's grant of the barony to him, by which it appeareth 
 probably that he lived above an hundred years. The Earl 
 Randulph Meschines gave Staunton to him, and K. Hen. 
 i^t gave him Blackhill and Melmerby. He had issue Adam, 
 
ALLERDALE [wIGTON] . 63 
 
 Adam had issue Odard the 2nd whose son and heir Adam 
 the snd died without issue, therefore the inheritance came 
 to his brother Walter who had issue Odard the 3rd who 
 died without issue, and Odard the 4th Hkewise, wherefore 
 the brother John de Wigton the son of Walter entered 
 and had issue a sole daughter and heir Margaret, who a.d. 
 . . . granted the church of Wigton to the abbott and 
 convent of Holm Cultrum, which they presently did appro- 
 priate to their house in the year of grace 1334. In K. 
 Edw. 3''<^^ time Margaret was married to Sir John Denhara * 
 Knt and was impleaded for her birth right, and her mother 
 Idionsia Lovetot the wife of Sir John de Wigton was for 
 a time hindered of her dower. Yet her adversaries did not 
 prevail. Wigton barony shortly after her death came to 
 Thomas Lucy the . . of that name Lord of Allerdale 
 and thereby in right that seigniory of Wigton was extin- 
 guished and became again part of the antient barony of 
 Allerdale, though it is yet taken and reputed as a manner 
 of itself. From the Lord Lucy it thenceforth as other 
 lands descended to the Lucies and Earls of Northumber- 
 land as appears in the title of Allerdale, and the rest of 
 Odard de Wigton's lands to others as appears in other 
 titles. 
 
 KiRKBRlDE. The mannor of Kirkbride contains the 
 township of . . . and Oulton a hamlet of the same 
 with their appurts. It was first granted forth from the 
 barony of Wigton in K. John's time by Adam 2nd Lord of 
 Wigton to Adam son of Adam his 2nd son a knight, brother 
 to Odard the 2nd. His posterity took the name of their 
 mansion house at Kirkbride. The church there founded 
 before the conquest was dedicated to the honour of a 
 religious Irish woman of great sanctimoney called Brydock 
 and corruptly St. Bride, and gave first name to the 
 township. The said Adam son of Adam was witness to a 
 deed of gift of his cousin Henry the son of Adam de

 but whether he held the manner or not I know not yet; 
 for the four daughters and co-heirs of the 2" Gilbert of

 John Dalston of Dalston K"', the son of John Dalston, 
 the son of Thomas who bought the same of . . . Pen-

 S"' John de Wigton, being then valued at lol. p. annum. 
 And in the 32""^ year of Edw. i", S"^ Henry Malton K°' 
 bought it by fine levyed of John de Canton and Alice his 
 wife, daughter and heir of . . . Then Helen late wife of 
 ooe Elias Brayton held it in dow"" for her life, the inherit-

 the 31 Ed. i^' it was in the King's hands by the death of 
 John de Mulcaster alias John de Easton, and by the forfei- 
 ture of Alice daughter of Benedict de Mulcaster next heir 
 to the said John de Mulcaster. In 6 Ed. i'', Alanus de

 BURGH BARONY. 
 
 The Barony of Next unto Allerdale upon the south 
 Burgh. side of the river Wathempool or Wat- 
 
 holmpool now Wampol h'es the barony 
 of Burgh-by-Sands or Burjrh barony. On the west and 
 north-west it is washed by the sea flowing up to the foot 
 of the river Eden, and by the said river towards the north 
 and north-east unto the city of CarHsle : and from Carhsle 
 to the river Wampool on the south-east it is divided from 
 Dalston barony by the beaten high street, which leadeth 
 from Carlisle through Thursby to Wigton. 
 
 In this barony were divers mannors holden of Burgh, 
 and some within the bounder, and yet no part of the 
 barony (as Orton and Gamelsby) nor holden of the same. 
 Ranulph Bohun* de Meschines gave this barony of Burgh 
 to one Robert de Estrivers or Trivers together with the 
 chief foresters office in the forest of Englewood ; which 
 office with great and many liberties thereunto belonging all 
 the Lords of Burgh enjoyed successively untill Thomas de 
 Multon de Gilsland forfeited the same by treason com- 
 mitted against the King ... in the insurrection made 
 by Simon de Montford Earl of Leicester. 
 
 Ibria Trevers daughter to Robert de Trevers and wife

 by the said Ibria. The said Radulph and Ibria and 
 William their son gave Henrickby alias Herriby besides 
 Carlisle to the priory of Carlisle which gift Hugh Mor- 
 vill confirmed. 
 
 After W™ Engayne succeeded S'' Hugh Morvill (as son 
 and heir of Ada sole daughter and heir of the said 
 William). In the time of Hen. 2°^ this S"^ Hugh Mor- 
 vill was of great possessions. In Cumberland he was 
 Lord of Burgh barony Lassonby and Ishall ; in West- 
 morland of Temple Sowerby, Hoflun, &c., and about 
 Wharton he had diverse lands. The great mountain 
 Hugh-Seat-Morvill was called after him. He was one 
 of the four Knights who killed S* Thomas a Becket Arch- 
 bishop of Canterbury, after which deed he came to great 
 misery. He gave therefore the rectory of Burgh to the 
 abbey of Holm Cultrum, which the Bishops of Carlisle, 
 Bernard, Hugh, and Walter did appropriate to the monks. 
 The sword that killed St Thomas was at Ishall in my 
 father's time, and since remaineth with the house of Arun- 
 del. He was greatly hated of the churchmen of his time ; 
 therefore they wrote many things to his dishonour hardly 
 to be credited, which I omitt. After great repentance he 
 died and left his two daughters his heirs, Johan wife to 
 Richard Worun or Gerun, and Ada wife first to Richard 
 Lucy second to Thomas Multon and third to W™ Lord 
 Furnival.* 
 
 After S' Hugh Morvill succeeded Richard Lucy and 
 Richard Werun, with the daughters of S*^ Hugh in the in- 
 heritance of Burgh. 
 
 Richard Lucy had by his wife Ada only two daughters,

 moiety of Burgh fell to the second Thomas Multon afore- 
 said brother to Lambert Multon of Egremont. 
 
 Richard Werun had by his wife Johan Morvill, Sara (or 
 Ada) a daughter married to Richard Boyvill Baron of 
 Kirklevington who had issue Hawise the wife of Eustace 
 of Baliol, which Hawise died without issue, and thereupon 
 that moiety of Burgh also descended to Thomas son of 
 Thomas of Multon aforesaid, or to Thomas de Multon de 
 Gilsland his son the third of y^ name.* 
 
 The second Thomast de Multon married Matilda Vaux 
 y^ sole daughter and heir of Hubert Vaux Baron of Gils-

 AiKTON. Aikton villa quercuni is a mannor town and 
 parish in the barony of Buigh-upon-Sands and was the 
 principal seat of Johan de Morvill the 2nd dau;;hter and 
 one of the two co-heirs of Sir Hugh Morvill Lord of Burgh. 
 A little hamlet (now called Downball and ever so named 
 after the Scots burnt it) was the capital messuage of Aik- 
 ton where the said Johan Morvill and her husband Sir 
 Richard Gernon (or Gerun, or Wdun) dwelt, and after 
 them another Richard Gernon and Helewise his wife, he 
 the kinsman of the elder Richard and she the daughter 
 to Johan Morvill, to whom Johan gave six carucats of 
 land for their maintenance in frank marriage. Johan died 
 the 31st year of Hen. s"""^, and Helewise her daughter 
 34 Hen. 3'^'^. By her death the land fell to Ada her sister 
 and heir late wife to Radulph Boyville de Levington, and 
 then wife to William Furnival ; the same Ada died 55 
 Hen. 3'^'^. And after Ada, her daughter and heir Hawisa 
 the late wife of Eustace Balliol succeeded in the inherit- 
 ance of Ada and of Radulph Levington the first husband, 
 which Hawise died 55 Hen. 3'^'^ without issue. Therefore 
 the lands of Radulf Boyvill of Levington fell to his six 
 sisters and co-heirs, and Hawise's fourth part viz : the 
 moiety of her grandmother's moiety of the Morvills 
 lands in Burgh and Kirkoswald to Thomas de Multon de 
 Gilsland.* And the mannor of Aikton and the other fourth 
 part of Burgh barony to Roger son of Walter Colvill and 
 
 Sir Christopher Lowther Knt., married Eleanor, daur. to Wm. Mu.sgrave, of

 Margaret his wife, as the right of Margaret aforesaid ; by 
 descent as some think from Hawise but it seems otherwise, 
 for the lands are found to be holden of the Lords of Burgh 
 afterwards, and not of the King immediately. After Roger 
 succeeded Edward Colvill his son and heir, 14 Ed. i^' 
 Lord of Aikton ; his mother Margaret dyed gth Ed. 3'''^, and 
 then Robert Colvill son and kinsman to Roger was 
 found heir. In the 23 Ed. 3'^'^ Thomas Daniel dyed Lord 
 of the same and the other lands in Burgh in the right of 
 Isabell his wife the heir of Colvill, and left his daughter 
 Margaret a child of three years of age his heir, who in the 
 40th year of Ed. 3'''^ intailed the land to the heirs male of 
 John Radcliff her husband and hers. The remainder to 
 Richard their son for life. After to the heirs male of 
 Robert, Thomas, Richard and John, sons of the said 
 Richard successively. After to the heirs male of John the 
 son of Catharine de Cliftley. After to the heirs male of 
 John the son of William Ratcliff of Longfield. After to 
 the heirs male of Robert the son of William, the son of 
 Richard Ratcliff; and after to the right heirs of Margaret 
 Daniel the grandmother, for ever. She dyed 44 Ed. 3'''^. 
 Afterwards these lands and mannor was sold in the time 
 of K. Hen. 6* to the Lord Thomas Dacre father of 
 Humphrey by Sir John Savage Knt, in whose blood they 
 continue at this day and so are become demesns of the 
 Lord Paramount of Burgh, united to the antient seignory 
 from whence they were divided by the partition of Sir 
 Hugh Morvill's daughters (as is before mentioned) in the 
 time of King John. 
 
 The parish contains Gamelsby, Biglands, Wigganby, 
 Whitriglees, Drumleyning, Lathes and Wampool. 
 
 Parton. Parton (a mannor and township so called) 
 adjoyneth to the west side of Crofton, and is divided from 
 the same by a rill called Catt-beck. It lyes between the 
 river of Wampool on the south and the Powbeck on the 
 north, extended from the Catt-beck unto the Karrs-mouth,

 where the rill called Powbeck falls into Wampool. The 
 first Lords thereof after the Conquest took their sirname 
 of the place and were called Parton. The eldest hne of 
 them by a daughter transferred the inheritance to one 
 Richard Mansell whose son and heir John Mansell sold the 
 same to Robert Mulcaster, who gave the same to Robert 
 de Grinsdale in Hen. 2'^ time. Robert Grinsdale had issue 
 Gilbert Grinsdale who had issue Allan and Robert ; Allan 
 by his wife Margery had issue Thomas and Henry who died 
 without issue of their bodies. Therefore their lands at 
 Carliell fell to Sir William de Arthuret Knt in right of 
 Marriotte his wife who was their sister and heir general 
 after the death of Henry Grinsdale her brother. But Par- 
 ton fell to Margaret the wife of Gilbert Pepper or Pipperd 
 in Ed. 3"^'^ time, another heir of the Grinsdales, who dying 
 without issue for that she was of the half blood her part 
 fell to Robert de Grinsdale. Marriotte made John Denton 
 of Cardew her heir. And Margaret gave her part to 
 Robert Roose her 2nd husband whose nephew and heir 
 Richard Roose sold the same to John Carliell parson of 
 Kirkland, his brother's son. Robert the son of Robert 
 Carliell sold to W"^ Denton the son and heir of John Den- 
 ton aforesaid the moiety of Parton, whose posterity in the 
 issue male still enjoyeth the same.* 
 
 The manor and town contains the hamlets of Parton 
 and Micklethwaite, Whinhow and Whinshill ; and Drom- 
 leyning was parcel of the same untill the Lord Paramount 
 purchased the same of Thomas heir general to John 
 Dalston sometime freeholder of lands in Parton. 
 
 Drumleyning. All Parton is within the parish of 
 Thursby saving that of Drumleyning which is in the parish 
 of Aikton, and now doth service to the mannor of Aikton. 
 It is called corruptly Drumleyning, the right name thereof 
 
 * The moiety of Parton continued in the issue male of the Dentons, till George 
 Denton of Cardew, last possessor thereof, sold the same to Sir John Lowther, a.d. 
 1686. Gilpin.

 is the Myre-Dromble-Heyning ; Wee call a bittern a Myre 
 Dromble because she haunteth myres, boggs, fens and carrs, 
 and for that she hath a thundering voice which we call 
 rumbling. Heyning is the fryth or freed spring of the place. 
 A wood new cut for springing, a fryth and spring we call a 
 Heyning of the word Heyned which signifies freed or spared 
 or forborn. 
 
 Gamelsby and Biglands. Gamelsby is the next town 
 to Parton, and stands upon the north side of the river of 
 Wampool, between it and the fields of Aikton. It con- 
 taineth the two hamlets of Gamelsby and Biglands, which 
 Biglands is so called of that kind of grain called beer or 
 barley which plentifully grows there, which grain Cumber- 
 land men call bigg and thereupon the hamlet is called 
 Bigglands. 
 
 These two hamlets were antiently a manner the chief 
 capital house whereof stood at Gamelsby which was so 
 called of one Game! that first builded there. It was 
 antiently parcel of Burgh and granted forth to one William 
 Brewer by the Lords of Burgh, to be holden as part of the 
 same of the crown, as the barons held the rest of the king. 
 It is called in antient evidences Gamelsby juxfa Aikton, 
 therefore not de Aikton nor within the bounds of the same. 
 Before Gamel built there, it was a woody waste haunted 
 with deer. The next Lord that I read of was one Adam de 
 Crookdake who had it by fine of William Brewer : after it 
 descended by two daughters to the families of the Raugh- 
 tons and of those Boyvills which were Lords of Westlinton, 
 and therefore called de Levington or Linton. Raughtons' 
 part descended to a daughter named Catherine the wife of 
 John Aspilon, a Buckinghamshire man, who sold the same 
 to the Warcops, who sold the same to the Crakinthorps or 
 Southeraikes, who exchanged the same with the Dentons 
 of Cardew for their lands in Skelton. One of the posterity 
 of the Dentons sold the same of late to the several inhabi- 
 tants and tenants of that part who now enjoy the same. 
 
BURGH. 75 
 
 And the other moiety the Levingtons' part descended 
 long in the heirs male till by a daughter the same was 
 transferred to one Alexander Highmore of Harbybrow, 
 whose heir sold the same to the Lord Dacres. And it is 
 now in the Queen's hands by the attainder of the heir of 
 the Dacres. 
 
 Wampool. Wathompool or Wampool lyes next unto 
 Biglands and Gamelsby, and is so called of the river Wam- 
 pool upon the banks whereof it standeth. The oldest that 
 I read of that were Lords of the same was one Robert 
 Brunne the son of Radulf who was called Robert de 
 Wathompool because he dwelt there. He married Mar- 
 garet the daughter and heir of Richard the son of Trute 
 Lord of Newby beneath Carliell. She confirmed Newby 
 to the abbey of Holm Cultrum, being covert baron, therefore 
 Hervey de Wampool,* Robert de Dunbraton, William de 
 Feritate and Radulf his brother, were her pledges for 
 that assurance. Afterwards Blennerhasset, Dacre, and 
 Warwick of Warwick were Lords thereof. Richard War- 
 wick heir of the Warwicks' part lately sold the same to 
 the inhabitants who are Lords of the freeholds. It is holden 
 of the barony of Burgh and was antiently a demesne, but 
 is now divided into four tenements, two whereof are War- 
 wicks, and Blennerhasset and Dacre have the other two. 
 Warwicks' moiety descended from Thomas de Whitrigg 
 Knt ; Blennerhassetts' part from William Arthuret Knt, 
 heir to Adam de Crofton. 
 
 Whitrigg. Whitrigg or the White Ridge is a great 
 long white rigg upon the banks of Wathinpool, and was so 
 called of the waste ground there fashioned like a corn rigg. 
 It was first inhabited by the Brunes, who were antiently a 
 great family ; Whitrigg was the inheritance of Robert de 
 Dunbretton so called because he dwelt at Dunbretton, but 
 
 * I read of one Hervy de Wampol et Agnes uxor soror Willielmi Tarraby.

 his sirname was Brun and his posterity were called Whit- 
 rigg of this place. Another hamlet belonging to the same 
 is called Whitrigg-Lees which was the pasture ground and 
 Lee of Whitrigg when it was demesne. 
 
 Lathes. Lathes is a hamlet next unto Wampool, and 
 was so called of a grange or farm which the Lord of 
 Whitrigg had there. Of that place the family of the 
 Lathes took their name, who antiently well nigh the Con- 
 quest have enjoyed the same in the issue male untill Adam 
 Leathes now owner of the demesne thereof sold the tene- 
 ments and residue of the hamlet to the inhabitants. It 
 was antiently part of the demesn of Whitrigg, and given 
 by Robert the son of Robert de Dunbretton to his kinsman 
 Henry,* whose posterity as aforesaid were thereupon called 
 de le Leaths. We call a barn for corn a Lath, whereupon 
 the place was so called being a very good soil and antiently 
 kept in tillage. It is in the parish of Aikton. 
 
 Langcrofts. There is also a hamlet called Langcrofts 
 parcel of Whitrigg so called of the long ridges of land 
 which lye between the town and Wampool. 
 
 Caerdurnok. Towards the sea coast at the foot of 
 Wampool, stands an old village called Caer-durnok, a 
 British name which signifies the town of the thorns, of a 
 wood there then all of thorns which was long after called 
 the Eyen Thorns, or Old Thorns, and now are all wasted 
 away. And the place where they did grow stands now a 
 village yet called Aynthorn. 
 
 FiNGLAND. There is another village called Finland, 
 Fingland and Fennland, which is almost environned with 
 a moss and fenny ground. All these were the Brun lands 
 and did belong unto and were parcels of their manors of 
 Bowness and Drumbugh. 
 
 BowNESS. Bowness is a common name to the manner 
 town and parish there. One of the first barons of Burgh 
 
 * Robertus filius Robert! dedit Leathes Henrico fratri suo Hen 3. Gilpin. 
 
BURGH. 77 
 
 after the Conquest gave the same to Gamel le Brun, It 
 containeth, on the north side where the sea floweth up into 
 the river of Eden, the town of Bowness itself, Glasson 
 Drumbugh and Easton, where the bounder of the same 
 crosseth over southward on the east side of Fingland and 
 Whitrigg unto Wathempol, and taketh in all the aforemen- 
 tioned towns of Whitrigg, Whitrigg-Lees, Langcrofts, 
 Fingland, Aynthorn and Caerdurnok, all which make a 
 great point of land into the sea, thrusting in between the 
 waters of Wampool and Eden. A goodly manner it was 
 while entire, but now it is divided into several parts. 
 
 Bowness was antiently called Bulgitim Blatum of the 
 Romans, who, as I think, framed this word Bulgiiim of 
 a word now in use with us, namely Bulge, which signi- 
 fieth a breaking in, as the sea, there swelling, breaks in. 
 But where they took the word Blatum I cannot perceive 
 unless from that place in Scotland a little from Tordoss 
 called Blawtwood, which soundeth the sea swelling or 
 bulging in at Blawt. But this name Bowness as some 
 have thought was given to the place of this word Noose, 
 which the Scots and this country people call Neese, which 
 signifies a point of land into the sea : and so they commonly 
 call it, and for that the land here makes a crooked point 
 into the sea they call it Bow-ness. Others have writ it 
 Bowl-ness as a word made of bowling which is swelling, 
 and the said word ness a point ; for that often times the 
 tide coming with the wind the sea breaks in at the point 
 with great fury. 
 
 But however it was called, it was a most antient thing 
 and a great building as appeareth by the antient founda- 
 tions and paved streets which are daily found in the 
 common fields by the inhabitants. It is seated at the 
 west end of that memorable work the Picts Wall. 
 
 Drumbugh. The church is placed at Bowness but 
 the capital messuage at Drumbogh where the said Gamel 
 Brun and his posterity dwelt. It is called Drumbugh of 
 
78 BURGH. 
 
 that fenny mire or bog, then full of shrubs and haunted 
 with bitterns which the people call myre drombles, or mire 
 drumnles, so as that word Drumbogh signifies the bitterns' 
 fen. 
 
 Easton. The next town to it is Easton for that it is 
 the eastermost town of the manner. 
 
 Glasson. The other hamlet named Glasson was so 
 called by the Irish inhabitants for that it is a green on a 
 river, Glass in Irish signifying green, and Oon a river. 
 It gave name to the family of gentlemen called Glassons, 
 some of whose race builded at Glassonby besides Kirkos- 
 wold manner, which place was thereupon called Glassonby. 
 The last of that name W™ de Glasson, who held Glasson 
 of Robert le Brun de la Feritie Lord of Bowness, forfeited 
 the same, being outlawed for the death of one Patrick 
 Taylor ye 6 Ed. i. 
 
 Brunskeugh. After the aforesaid Gamel le Brun 
 diverse of the Bruns were Lords of Bowness successively 
 as Robert, Radulf, Robert, Richard &c. One of those 
 Roberts and Radulf his father had a mansion house 
 without Eden nigh a brush of wood, called therefore Brun- 
 nesskeugh or Brunneswood where the town of Brunskeugh 
 now standeth. And for that the same is seated towards the 
 wild wastes, they were called de Feritate, but their'sirname 
 was Brun. Their lands were divided amongst three copar- 
 ceners, the daughters and heirs of Richard Brun the last 
 Lord of that name. One of them named Helen was 
 married to the house of Workington. Another to Har- 
 rington of Harrington. And another to Bowet whose 
 posterity sold the same to Ellys, who yet enjoyeth the third 
 part in Bothill, but hath sold his part in Bowness to 
 Robert Graham of the Fald. 
 
 BowsTEAD Hill. The next hamlet to Easton in the 
 parish of Bowness is Bowstead Hill, so named of a bow 
 of kine there kept for their dairy by the Lords of Burgh. 
 
 Langbergh. And next unto Bowstead Hill is a hamlet 
 
BURGH. 79 
 
 called Langbergh, so named of this word bergh which 
 signifies a rising ground. Both this and Bowstead Hill 
 were antient demesne of Burgh, and their pasture ground, 
 and now for better strength of the borders are letten forth 
 to tenancies. 
 
 DiKESFlELD. And so was a hamlet called Dykesfield 
 (without Langbergh), which gave name to the Dykes, a 
 family of gentlemen. 
 
 Burgh. Next to Langbergh stands Burgh itself, where 
 the barons of Burgh had a capital messuage, the ruins 
 whereof are yet seen at the east end of the town. 
 
 And between Burgh and the Sands was a mannor house 
 where one Henry de Sands a gentleman held there of the 
 barons of Burgh a carucat and an half of land in demesn 
 of which place he his ancestors and their posterity took 
 their sirname, and were called in old evidences de Sabuloni- 
 bus, whose issue male is now Lords of Rottington ; but that 
 their mannor house and the lands belonging to the same 
 lye now waste and are the pasture ground now belonging 
 to the inhabitants of Burgh. But it is yet called the 
 Sandsfield. 
 
 WoRMOLBY. Next unto Burgh towards Carliell is a 
 little hamlet called Woormolby or Wormondby, so named 
 of the first inhabitant there. 
 
 Beaumont. On a fair hill next unto Wormolby is 
 Beaumont, a town so named of the fair hill on which it 
 stands from whence every way lies a goodly prospect which 
 gave occasion of this name. It was anciently a manor 
 belonging to the Brunnes Lords of Bowness, who were 
 patrons of the church there. But of later times the barons 
 of Burgh have bought it of the co-heirs and granted the 
 same forth in customary tenancies. 
 
 KiRKANDERS. Next unto Beaumont stands the parish 
 and town of Kirkanders, so named of the church there 
 dedicated to St. Andrew, which the antient Lords of Burgh, 
 as I think, did grant together with the service of the 
 
8o BURGH. 
 
 manor of Orton unto the barons of Levington and severed 
 the same from the barony of Burgh ; for though they lye 
 now within the same yet are they not part thereof. And 
 upon the next office found by inquisition after the making 
 of the statute of Magna Charta in Hen. 3'''' time the 
 barons' lands of Levington wheresoever they did lye were 
 found to be one barony by the inquisition, as other men's 
 lands then were that were holden in capite of the king, 
 as Lesingby distant from Burgh six miles yet is found to be 
 parcel of Burgh. And Skelton so remote from Kirkleving- 
 ton yet is found to be parcel of the same barony of Leving- 
 ton. The Lords of Burgh have now annexed Kirkanders 
 town again to the barony of Burgh. But Orton is holden 
 still of Levington but it lies in Burgh. 
 
 Grinsdale. Next unto Kirkanders lies Grinsdale, a 
 parish town and mannor within Burgh barony and holden 
 of the same. It gives sirname unto a family of gentlemen 
 called Grinsdalls. The most antient of the name that I 
 read of was one Udard de Grinsdall, and after him Asketill 
 the son of Robert de Grinsdall that lived in the time of 
 Hen. i^*, Stephen, and Hen. 2"'^. The eldest line failed 
 about King John's time when the inheritance fell to two 
 daughters whereof one was married to the Lord of Newton 
 in AUerdale. One Thomas de Newton held by that right 
 the moiety of Grinsdale of Thomas de Multon Lord of 
 Burgh, in Hen. 3'''^ time. And the other moiety was then 
 so holden by one William de la Sore, whose ancestor had 
 married the other coparcenor. A second bi-other of Aske- 
 till called Robert was a citizen of Carliell and purchased 
 lands there and in Parton, which descended according to 
 the following pedigree untill the coparcenors and their 
 heirs sold the same to the Dentons of Cardew, in Hen. 4* 
 time, whose issue male enjoyeth the same at this day.

 Newton's moiety of Grinsdale fell by marriage to Martin- 
 dale, and to one of the Dacres named Richard Dacre in 
 the right of his wife one of the co-heirs of Martindale. 
 His issue William Dacre and himself for following Leonard 
 Dacre in the last rebellion lost the same and now it is in 
 the Queen's hands by attainder. The other is Michael

 son and heir of John de Parton & Kirkanders, An. lo

 It is called Grinsdale or Greensdale for that the Town- 
 field was antiently a low green bottom or dale by the river 
 side of Eden. 
 
 Banton magna et parva. Bampton villa Bembce vet

 Banton. In the partition of Hildred's estate after his death

 Orton. Above Grinsdale and Kirkanders more towards 
 the south stands Orton or Overton, which name is common 
 to the parish mannor and town being so named in respect 
 of the situation and higher standing of that place in 
 reference to Kirkanders and the lower towns towards Eden 
 and the borders of the country. It is parcel of the barony 
 of Levington and holden of the same and gave sirname to 
 a family of gentlemen of mark called Orton. They gave 
 for arms vert a lion rampant argent crowned and armed 
 gules. The first of the name I read of was Simon, who had 
 issue Alan de Orton to whom K. Hen. ^'^^ granted free warren 
 in Orton. After him succeeded John his son (they were 
 all Knts), and after him Giles whose daughter and heir 
 Johan was wife to Sir Clement de Skelton, to whom he 
 had four daughters and heirs ; one named Agnes married 
 to the Lighes of Ishall, another named .... married 
 to Bellasis, another named .... married to Ridley. 
 The fourth named .... married to Blennerhasset. 
 They divided the mannor into three parts which Lighe, 
 Blennerhasset, and Ridley enjoyed and charged the land 
 with a rent of £8 to Bellasis whose heir sold the same to 
 one Codall a merchant of Carliell, which Robert Brisko 
 
son of Leonard a younger brother's son of the Briskos of 
 Crofton, enjoyeth in the right of Eleanor his wife, daughter 
 of Richard Codall son of John son of John. 
 
 And the mannor is now the inheritance of John Brisco 
 of Crofton an infant, son of William, son of John, which 
 John the grandfather purchased the Lighs' parts from 
 Wilfrid Lawson and Maud his wife, (late wife of Thomas 
 Ligh to whom he gave his lands), and of Thomas Blenner- 
 hasset of Carlisle another part, and the other third part 
 Nicholas Ridley sold to the tenants there, whereof one sold 
 his part to Denton of Cardew, another kept his part, and 
 the third .... right of patronage of the rectory. The 
 residue sold their parts to the said William Brisco the 
 infant's father. 
 
 WiGGONBY. Next unto Orton stands Wiggonby, which 
 was antiently the Ortons' lands, and as I think parcel of 
 Orton. Yet I have seen offices that have found it a man- 
 nor of itself. It descended with the Ortons' lands as Orton 
 did to the co-heirs. Ligh sold his part to George Porter 
 of Bolton. Blennerhasset yet holds his, and Ridley sold 
 his part to the inhabitants. 
 
 Crofton. Crofton is the next town and mannor to 
 Thursby in the parish of Thursby, and lies betwixt Thursby 
 and Parton towards the east and west and between the 
 rivers of Wampool and the Pow on the south and north. 
 It is called Croft-town of the word Croft, as the town 
 standing upon the Crofts. The iirst Lord that I read of 
 the same was a Knt, Sir Gilbert the son of Gilbert de 
 Dundraw. He gave a parcel of the same to the hospital 
 of St. Nicholas of Carlisle, and bounded it out in the place 
 called Gillmartinridden. He lived in K. John's time. He 
 bound that land to grind at his mill at Crofton. Next 
 after him the Lords of Crofton had to their sirname Crofton, 
 as John de Crofton,* Robert de Crofton, John de Crofton, 
 
 * MS. John de Crofton, Robert de Crofton, Thomas de Crofton, John de Crofton, 
 John de Crofton, Adam de Crofton, Marriott wife of WiUiam de Arthuret and 
 
§4 BURGH. 
 
 Clement de Crofton. They had lands in Carliell and 
 Birkskugh which corruptly is called Bruskowgh and Bris- 
 kow. One Isold de Briskow married the heir of Crofton 
 whose posterity in the issue male have hitherto enjoyed the 
 same. And at this day John Brisco an infant the son of 
 William son of John son of Robeit, who was slain at 
 Sollom Moss, is Lord thereof. 
 
 They were called de Birkskugh because their first an- 
 cestors dwelt at Birkskeugh or Birchwood, a place by 
 Newbiggen in a Lordship belonging to the priory of Carliell 
 which lands they yet enjoy or part thereof. And when 
 Gualo Cardinal of St. Martin in K. John's time, and after 
 him Pandolf in Hen. 3'^'* time as legates from the Pope 
 made distribution of the lands belonging to the church of 
 Carliell between the bishop and the prior which till then 
 were holden per indivisum, the said first named John de 
 Crofton held the same land in Brisco as a freeholder.* 
 
 daur. of John de Crofton : Margaret one other daur. and co-heir of Sir John de 
 Crofton, married Isold Brisco, by whom he had Crofton, Whinhovv and Dundraw.

 * It appears by an ancient writing dated (now in the custody of 
 
 John Brisko Esq.,) purporting an arbitrement between then prior 
 
 of Carliol, and Christopher Brisko then Lord of Crofton, that the sd Chr. Brisko 
 and his ancestors were Lords of the mannor of Brisko, but that he being taken 
 prisoner by the Scots and enforced to pay a great sum of money foi his ransom 
 was necessitated for the raising of the same to mortgage his mannor of Brisko to 
 
 prior of Carliol. And afterwards they coming to an account about 
 
 the same, the arbitrators whom they chose to adjust their differences ordered that 
 the prior and his successors should enjoy the whole mannor except the capital 
 house and best tenement, and that Christopher Brisko and his should have 
 liberty to cut wood for building and dig for stones, and have such a proportion of 
 the comon if ever after it happens to be improved : and accordingly the Briskoes 
 have since enjoyed the sd tenements and messuages (now cantoned into many little 
 tenements), and the prior and his successors and now (in their right) the Dean 
 Snd Chapter the residue. In the late times when the parliament prevailed agst K.

 They give to their arms three greyhounds sable currant 
 in a field d'or* which as I think the heralds devised alluding 
 to the word Briskugh which in the British tongue implieth 
 agility in leaping, from which word the Saxons took the 
 word frisk or leap. But their right name is de Birkskeugh. 
 These words Skeugh, Scawgh, Shaw, I have seen in antient 
 evidences thus differently written yet always importing the 
 same viz : a wood ground standing on a hill as this Birk- 
 skeugh and Whinnow Shaw their own land, so called in 
 old evidences Middleskewgh and Middleskowgh. Three 
 pieces of wood land in Dalston called the Skaw, the little 
 Skaw and Raysons Skaw, named in old writings Skaugh or 
 Scough. 
 
 John Brisko, grandfather to abovesaid infant, added to 
 his coat for a crest a greyhound sable bearing a hare 
 proper. 
 
 John de Crofton gave lands to the priory of Carliell, his 
 seal was a pelican and her young ones in her nest under 
 her. Robert his son gave lands also to the church of Car- 
 liell, he sealed with a lilly pot of three flowers. 
 The pedigree of the Briskoes is as followeth : 
 
 Robert Brisko Lord of Brisko. 
 
 Alan son of Robert.

 and in the fifth year of the same King one Adam de Bray 
 gave the rectory to John, prior of St. Marys of Carliell, 
 who did appropriate the same to the church of Cadiell. 
 In the fourth year of K. John Radulph Bray farmed the 
 rectory for corn for term of life granted by William then 
 priest of RothcHff. In the 33rd year of Hen. 3'''^ William 
 de Hardrighall and Matild his wife (William I take to be 
 the aforesaid William de RothcHff, and Matild to be a 
 daughter of the Brays), did give the mannor to John 
 France, to be holden of them and their heirs paying £^ 
 per annum rent, as I take it. The same year John France 
 redeemed it of John Ludbroke and Johan his wife. The 
 land was holden of Burgh 2s. vel unum esperuarhim. 34 Hen.

 dyed 6 Ed. i"^'. And his son Richard France being under 
 age one Michael de Harcla took him and married him to

 fined him. In the 22nd year of the said King, the King 
 gave the mannor of Rockcliff to Richard Vernon or Gernon 
 for his life and to return after him to Richard his son, and 
 to Eleanor daughter of Giles Fynes, Richard's wife and 
 the heirs of their bodies which mannors the King had of 
 Richard Vernon the father's gift. The Frances are named 
 in evidences Francoys and Francigense, (which I think 
 was so for that the first so named was born in France). 
 It may therefore be the sirname was Vernon. Afterwards 
 in the 23rd year of K. Edw. 3'''^ Thomas Danyel died seised 
 of RothcHff, whose daughter Margaret wife of John Rat- 
 cliff intailed the same and her other lands to the Ratcliffs 
 and the heirs male of their kindred, an. 40th Ed. 3"^"^ and 
 died in the 44th of the same King. And after her posterity 
 sold it to the Lord Dacre (and so it became united to the 
 barony of Burgh in demesne).

 THE FOREST OF ENGLEWOOD. 
 
 The forest of Englewood is in the midland parts of the 
 county and lieth between the rivers of Shawk and Eden 
 about 10 miles broad and is extended from Carliell to 
 Penrith about i6 miles of length. It abutts upon the 
 baronies of Burgh and Allerdale on the west, on the barony 
 of Greystock on the south, and upon the river Eden on the 
 east and north. By which account it comprehends the 
 barony of Great Dalston which is now reputed as part 
 thereof, tho' antiently it appears to have been a distinct 
 barony. Great Dalston lies on the west of the river Cal- 
 dey and takes up most part of that ground which is 
 therefore called The Westward viz : of the great forest of 
 Englewood, tho' of late it has been used as the name of a 
 distinct forest. 
 The Barony of Between Burgh barony and the forest 
 Great Dalston. of Englewood lies ye barony of Great 
 Dalston, which is divided from the 
 forest by the river Caldey on the south side, and it reached 
 from Carliell unto Welton in Sebergham, where it is divi- 
 ded from Sowerby by the river Caldey and taketh in little 
 Raughtonfield untill the foot of Rawgh, where Caldey 
 bounders it again along great Raughtonfield. 
 
 The Earl Randolph Meschiens first gave this seignory 
 to one Robert (that was second brother to Hubert de 
 Vallibus first Lord of Gilsland) and his heirs whereupon 
 he was called Robert de Dalston. This Robert and his 
 issue enjoyed it till K. Stephen gave Cumberland to David 
 K. of Scots. And presently after Hen. of England the 
 second of that name banishing the Scots seised that barony 
 among others and united them to the forest of Englewood 
 
go FOREST OF ENGLEWOOD [GREAT DALSTON] . 
 
 when Allan de Nevill was chief forester ultra Trent. It 
 continued forest from that time during all the reigns of the 
 said K. Hen. 2^^, of Rich, x^' and John his sons, and of 
 Hen. 3'^'^ John's son until the 14th year of his reign, who 
 then first disafforested the same and granted Dalston with 
 great priviledges to Walter Malclerk then Lord Treasurer of 
 England and Bishop of Carliell, and to his successors 
 Bishops there. And at this day Henry Robinsoa Bishop of 
 Carliell enjoyeth the same being the 35th Bishop of Carliell

 Cardew. The mannor and town of Cardew in the 
 barony of Dalston were antiently called Kar-thew, i.e., palus 
 sive mariscus Deorunt and took first name of that great fenny 
 ground at the head of the river Wampool now called Car- 
 dew-myre and of the antient inhabitants Kar-thew which 
 is by interpretation Gods-fenn or Gods-bogg, and so called 
 by them because it adjoined to Thursby where the Danes 
 had a house or temple of sacrifice, or a publick place 
 where those pagans offered up the blood of captives to a 
 God t whom in that sort they honoured, as Everardus some- 
 time abbott of Holm Cultrum hath registered to posterity 
 who lived in the days of K. Hen. 2°'^. 
 
 Cardew was antiently a forest ground as all the rest of 
 the barony of Dalston was before it was inhabited, and 
 part of the great forest of Englewood and became first in- 
 habited in William Rufus or Hen. i^' time. The first 
 inhabitant I read of was William who took sirname of the 
 place and was called William de Carthew. I read of that 
 name likewise one Stephen and one Thomas de Karthew.

 The last inheritor sold his patrimoney to one Berrington 
 a chaplain, which Berrington gave the same to the Bishop 
 of Carliell in trust to the use of John Burdon. John 
 Burdon had issue a son called also John Burdon, to whom 
 his father gave land to him and the heirs of his body, and 
 for default of such issue to John Denton and Joan his 
 wife and the heirs of their body, whose issue male hneally 
 descended from father to son enjoy the same at this day in 
 that right. The said John Denton was Lord also of 
 Ainstiblighe and of the forest of Garnerie and Kirkpatrick 
 and Agingrey in Scotland, which he had of the gift of 
 Edward Baliol King of Scots. His letters patents thereof 
 were sealed in the Isle of Eastholm. The said John 
 Denton was the steward of all Annerdale,* under the Lord 
 Humphrey de Boayl Earl of Hereford and Essex Lord 
 High Constable of England, to whom the said Edward 
 Balioll or John BalioU his father gave the whole seignory 
 of Annerdale which was antiently the Bruces' lands. The 
 said John Denton deserved so well in those wars between 
 the BaHolls and the Bruces competitors for the crown of 
 Scotland that Baliol (then King) preferred him to that forest 
 late the Bishops of Glascow's lands and to Kirkpatrick 
 late the lands of Sir James Frissold adhoerents to the 
 Bruces' faction. And the Earl of Hereford preferred him 
 to the stewardship of Annerdale, the principal office in 
 that seignory for that he first entered the same and held it 
 to the Earl his master's use in despite of the Bruces' 
 faction. And when Baliol was banished Scotland he kept 
 still the principal house till it was fired under him, beaten 
 and undermined till it was ready to fall, whereupon his 
 heirs give now in remembrance thereof for their crest a 
 castle or tower sable, flames issuing out at the top thereof 
 and a demi-lion rampant with a sword in his right paw 
 issuing out the flames. t

 Sebergham. Sebergham is so called of the place where 
 it stands which is a hill or rising ground in the forest of 
 Englewood, which of the west side was woodland and dry 
 ground, but the north-east side a wet spungy earth covered 
 with rushes which the country people called selves, and 
 thereupon the place was called Seevy-Bergh. Before it 
 was inhabited it was a forest and a great waste and wilder- 
 ness at ye Conquest. After in the latter end of Hen. z"'^ 
 time one William Wastall or de la Wastdale, began to 
 inclose some parts of it. He was an hermit and had lived 
 there to an extreme age by the labour of his hands and 
 fruit trees which he planted. He came thither in Hen. i^' 
 time and died about the end of K. John's time or in the 
 beginning of K. Hen. 3'^'^. King John granted him the hill 
 and he left it to the prior of Carliell. The hermit's grant 
 was afterwards confirmed by certain bounds under the seal 
 of the King of Scots to whom the King of England had 
 given divers parts of the county in frankmarriage. 
 
 William Wastall had a chapell there where the church 
 now stands and a little cell, but after his death the prior 
 let all forth to tenants and farmers and enlarged ye church 
 and made it parochial and the place a village now called 
 Villa de Sebergham & Langholm which is a long dale and 
 low holme by the river of Cawdey now also inhabited 
 and parcel of the forest, and first enclosed as purpresture by 
 the foresters the Raughtons, and others since the Conquest 
 and are now and of long time have been so named and as 
 one township whereof ye Kirthwaits are parcel. 
 
 Carlisle. In the north-west corner of the forest of 
 Englewood stands the antient city of Carliell, environed 
 with the rivers Eden on the north-east, Petterell on the 
 south-east, and Cawdey on the south-west, and inclosed with 
 strong walls of squared stones, fortified with a castle ram.- 
 pired in the west end and the citadel in the east. It was 
 before the Saxons time called Luguvallum or Luguballum 
 and by some Lugubalia, whereupon the Saxons called it 
 
g6 FOREST OF ENGLEWOOD [CARLISLE]. 
 
 Luell or Luwall, and the last Brittons there inhabitants and 
 the Irish of that word Luell named it Carluell or Leyll. It 
 lay waste for the most part of 200 years before the last 
 Conquest saving a few cottages among the ruins inhabited 
 by Irish Scots. After the Danes had wasted the country 
 with fire and sword William Rufus returning that way from 
 Alnwick where he had made peace with King ... of 
 Scotland, seeing the place to be of strength convenient to 
 entertain his forces at any time against Scotland, com- 
 manded the same to be reedified and to be so fortified with 
 walls and with a castle. This was about the latter end of 
 his reign, but he was prevented by an untimely death 
 before he could perform all which he intended for the good 
 of the city. Yet he placed there a colony of Dutchmen 
 which were shortly thence translated into the Isle of 
 Anglesey by him or his next successor Henry Beauclerk 
 his brother, and instead of them a new regiment of southern 
 men of Essex, Kent, Middlesex and other parts of the 
 realm were brought to supply their place and to inhabit 
 the counties of Cumberland and Westmorland, under the 
 leading of Ranulph de Meschiens sister's son to Hugh 
 Lupus or Loup first Earl of Chester. When the city was 
 replenished with people, for to maintain better policy in the 
 same, and to inform the people, instead of a nunnery which 
 had been there before (and which William Rufus had 
 translated thence and established at Ainstaplighe, or rather 
 in recompence of the lands to that nunnery belonging had 
 founded another at Ainstaplighe endowing the same with 
 other revenues there), K. Hen. i^' founded a college of 
 secular priests in the 2nd year of his reign and made Athel- 
 wald his confessor or chaplain (prior of St. Botolphs) first 
 prior of Carliell, dedicating the church to the honour of the 
 blessed Virgin Mary, and endowing them with the tiths of 
 the churches then founded in the forest of Englewood. 
 But being hindred by the tumults and troubles of his time 
 he could not perfect all things before the 33rd year of his 
 
ENGLEWOOD FOREST [CARLISLE] . 97 
 
 reign, and then strucken with grief for the loss of his 
 children that were drowned coming from Normandy, by 
 the council of the prior Athelwald and to please God for 
 his sins (as he thought) he erected a bishop's see at 
 Carliell, and made the said Athelwald first bishop thereof, 
 whom the Archbishop of York named Thurstan did con- 
 secrate in the year 1133. And in his stead another chaplain 
 of the said King Henry named Walter was made the 
 second prior of that house who a little before his election 
 had taken upon him by the king's licence a religious habit 
 that of a regular canon there, which order of canons the 
 King and Bishop Athelwald had placed in that house, 
 banishing the secular priests immediately upon his conse- 
 cration. The said Walter gave to the church of Carliell 
 for ever in pure alms his lands in Lynstock, Richardby, 
 Crosby, Little Crosby, Walby, Brunskewgh,Carleton, Little 
 Carleton and the wood and the churches and rectories of 
 St. Cuthbert in Carlisle, and Staynwiggs, (which the King 
 had given him) and the same gift was confirmed unto them 
 both by the King and Bishop Athelwald. 
 
 The rectory of St. Cuthbert in Carliell was founded by 
 the former inhabitants of CarHell before the Danes over- 
 threw the city, and by them dedicated to the honour of St. 
 Cuthbert of Duresm, who of antient times was Lord of 
 the same for 15 miles about Carliell. At the first founda- 
 tion of the church every citizen offered a piece of money, 
 a coin of brass then current which they buried under the 
 foundation of the church steeple there, as was found to be 
 true at the late new reedifying of St. Cuthbert's steeple 
 An. Dom. ... for when they took up the foundation 
 of the old steeple they found well near a London bushell 
 of that money. 
 
 After the said priors Athelwald and Walter succeeded 
 John who gave Watercroft in Flemby to the Lord of 
 Workington, Thomas son of Gospatrick, and after John 
 Bartholomew, who in the time of Bishop Hugh confirmed

 taken to be part of the mansion house of King Arthur the 
 son of Uterpendragon, of ... . memorable note for 
 his worthiness in the time of antient kings. Waldeive 
 also gave other antient buildings called Lyons Yards often 
 remembered in that history of Arthur written by a monk 
 the ruins whereof are yet to be seen, as it is thought, at 
 Ravenglass distant from Carliell according to that author 
 50 miles placed near the sea and not without reason 
 thought therefore to be the same. 
 
 After the death of Richard Earl of Chester (who was 
 drowned with the king's children) Ranulph Meschiens 
 removed to Chester and was Earl thereof. Presently after 
 K. Hen. i^' dyed and K. Stephen usurping the state gave 
 the county of Cumberland to David K. of Scots to procure 
 his aid against Hen. 2""^ right heir to the late king, as son 
 to Maud the Empress daughter and sole heir to Hen. i^'. 
 But ye Scots secretly favoured him for his rights sake and 
 for that he had made the said Henry FitzEmpress Knt at 
 Carliell. Yet accepting the gift of the county whereunto 
 he pretended his own right (before granted to his ancestors 
 by the Saxon kings), he made his eldest son Henry Fitz- 
 David Earl of Huntington and Carliell, which Henry 
 founded the abbey of Holm Cultrum in the time of K. 
 Stephen, his father David confirming the grant of the 
 revenues wherewith he endowed that house and so his son 
 Malcolumb K. of Scotland after David. After Henry Fitz- 
 David was dead and K. Stephen, K. Henry FitzEmpress 
 took Carliell and the county from the Scots and granted to 
 the city the first liberties I hear of that they enjoyed after 
 the Conquest. But his charter was burned by a casual fire 
 that happened in the town, which defaced a great part of 
 the same and all the records of antiquity of that place. 
 
 At the repairing the city in William Rufus's time it was 
 divided into streets as at the present without any great 
 alteration. In the great street now called Abbey Gate 
 
ENQLEWOOD FOREST [CARLISLE] . lOI 
 
 were placed the Irishmen, who dwelt there in cottages 
 when it was waste, which street was then thereupon called 
 Vicus Hibernensium, and the port or gate at the end of 
 that street is called the Irish Gate. In the street now 
 
 called were the Frenchmen or Normans 
 
 placed and therefore it was then called Vicus Francorum. 
 The other streets were called Vicus Richardi of the gate 
 leading to Richardby, Vicus Bochardi of the port and gate 
 leading to Bochardby, Vicus Castri of the castle standing at 
 the end thereof. In these three last and other most com- 
 mendable places of the city leading to and nigh the market 
 place and churches dwelt the chief and best citizens, natural 
 Englishmen. In the surburbs of the city beyond Caldew 
 towards Caldcotes* or Caldew cottages and towards Dais- 
 ton in Shadwinggate dwelt the remnants of the Flemings, 
 whereupon that street was called Vicus Flandrensis. In 
 the lowest place of the city were placed the fish shambles 
 Vicus piscatorum, in the head whereof then stood the flesh 
 shambles or butcher's row, Vicus Carnificum. In the 
 middle the market place. On the south side the priory.

 of his house at Carliell, and when the Flemings went to 
 Anglesea in Wales he left that patrimoney to Guy the 
 forester, with his daughter Isold. To this Guy the hunter 
 K. Hen. i*"' confirmed Bochardby to hold the same by 
 cornage paying yearly 6s. 2d. to the cornage silver to the 
 king. It is gildable and vicontiel and gives aid with Comb-

 descended in the issue male unto William the son of 
 Otho, or Odon son of Ralph son of Guido the Hunter of 
 Bochardby. This William lived in the time of K. John 
 and held the manner of him. Then William* de Bochardby 
 and Adam de Bochardby descended of younger brothers 
 held parts of the same. In the 12th year of K. Hen. 3'''^ 
 Radulph the son of said William de Bochardby entered to 
 the seignory. His sisters Alice, Pavy, and Agnes were his 
 heirs. Alice and Agnes gave their parts to Jakoline le

 Blackhill. Blackball or Blackbill, commonly called 
 Bleckell, is tbe name of tbe town and mannor, so called 
 of old before it was inbabited, being a black heathy ground 
 part of tbe antient forest of Englewood and given by Hen. 
 i^' to Odard de Logis baron of Wigton and citizen of 
 Carliell, after tbe Flemings were thence translated. Odard 
 first builded there and planted habitations, holding part in 
 demesne and the residue in service some free which he 
 granted forth to be holden freely, others in bondage and 
 villanage, some both persons and land, some land only, let 
 to free men, the persons in that age called Brings and the 
 tenure in law is called Drengagium.* 
 
 Bleckhill thus made a mannor by Odardus and his pos- 
 terity descended by his issue male according to the pedigree 
 of Wigton until the time of Ed. 3'''* when Margaret de 
 Wigton sole daughter and heir of Sir John de Wigton Knt 
 (last issue male of the eldest son of that house) to defend 
 her birthright was glad to give away the mannors of 
 Bleckhill, Melmerby and Stainton, to Robert Parving the 
 King's sergeant-at-law for her strength at the common 
 law, the rectory of Wigton to the Abbey Holme for the 
 civil law, and Wigton itself to the Lord Anthony Lucy for 
 his help in the country, because her mother Idyonsay 
 Lovetot was bitterly taxed of incontinency at the instance 
 of Sir Richard Kirkbryde next heir male apparent to the 
 land. But Margaret de Wigton reserved an estate in all 
 things (but the rectory) to the heirs of her body and died 
 without issue. Therefore Bleckhill fell to Sir Robert 
 Parving who married Dame Katherine the sister of the

 said Kirkbride K°' to Adam Parving als. Peacock the 
 son of John Peacock who married Johan one of the 
 daughters and co-heirs of the said Robert Parving. After 
 Adam it descended in the blood of the Parvings some few 
 descents, untill Margaret the wife of Tho. Boyt and Wm. 
 Boyt his son descended of the said Johan. And Matild 
 Walker daughter of Alice Atwood and Thomas Whitelock- 
 man son and heir of Margaret Pape daughters and heirs 
 to Eme wife of John Scaleby, the other daughter and heir 
 of the said Robert Parving, sold the same to William 
 Stapleton and Marriotte his wife of whom the Lord Dacre 
 purchased it. 
 
 Aglionby. The mannor of Agillunby (corruptly called 
 Aglionby), was first so called of one Agillun that came 
 into England with the Conqueror, and into Cumberland 
 under Radulph Meschiens. He gave name to the place of 
 his dwelling house, calling his chief seat or capital dwelling 
 Agillunby, Agillun's building. His alliance to the house of 
 Warwick or attendance under them (or under the abbott 
 of York and prior of Wetheral), preferred him to that 
 place of his dwelling and first seat which successively they 
 have holden from the Conquest, and their heirs males do 
 so at this day without any great difference or alteration of 
 their first estate by rising or fall. In success of time they 
 withdrew themselves into Carliell and let their mannor 
 into tenancies, which is now become a township and is 
 holden of Warthwick. Their first ancestor was called 
 Walter Agillun, he had issue Everard, Lawrence and 
 Werry. Werry had issue Elias and he Allan father of 
 William who had issue Adam. John his son had issue 
 another Adam from whom the inheritance descended unto 
 Thomas and to his posterity successively viz : William,

 sion on the east side of the river Eden. He dwelt at 
 Carliell and was afterwards called Hildredus de Carliell,* 
 he left that sirname to the antient family of Carliells who 
 were Knights successively untill Ed. i^' time, when their 
 chief seated himself in Scotland, at Kinmoont, when Ed. 
 i^' invaded Scotland. At which time he sold most of his 
 lands here in England. His name was Wm. Carliell ; of

 this mannor to make the partition equal was divided into 
 two moieties, which till this present time is not yet united,

 Raughton and Gaitskaill. Raghe is the name of a 
 river which taking his rise at . . . runneth headlong 
 by Thistlethwait, Stockhillwath and Gaitskale, where it is 
 received into Cawdey. The Raghe is a word which signi- 
 fieth running. The village Raughton now standing on the 
 hill side there (whose fields adjoyning make the east banks of 
 Raghe at the foot of the river) doth take name thereof. And 
 the hamlet Gaitskail was at first but a whinny place where 
 the inhabitants of Raughton made skales and shields for 
 their goats, which pastured on the blossoms of whins there, 
 though now it is inhabited and converted into tillage mea- 
 dow and pasture. About the Conquest it was forest and 
 waste ground untill a great purpresture was there inclosed 
 by one Ughtred son of ... . and entered to the K. 
 (William Rufus) to be holden in fee farm and by sergeantry 
 for keeping the aieries of hawks which bred in the forest of 
 Englewood for the King. And then the Raughtons gave 
 the sparrow hawk for their cognizance. And these arms 
 were born by the Raghtons viz : by John Raghton and 
 "William his brother in Ed. 3'^'^ time. Their first ancestor 
 Ughtred aforesaid had issue Roger, Richard and William, 
 whose issue successively were called to their sirnames of 
 Raghton of the place where they dwelt. Roger gave part 
 of his lands to his brethren there, and every one of them 
 increased his possessions within the forest of Englewood 
 
ENGLEWOOD FOREST. lOg 
 
 by renting purprestures to the King at Sebergham, Raugh- 
 ton, Gaitskail, Brekenthwait, and elsewhere. One of 
 their posterity gave Little Raughton Field to the Bishop 
 of Carliell. The last of Roger's name gave the mannor 
 of Raughton to Margaret Stapleton his wife and her heirs, 
 for want of issue between them. Thereupon Wiljiam 
 Stapleton of Edenhall became heir to her part of Raugh- 
 ton, and by the heir general of the Stapletons it fell to the 
 Musgraves who enjoyed the same till Humphrey Musgrave 
 sold it to the tenants in fee. 
 
 Skelton. Skaletown (villa ad Scalingas), now called 
 corruptly Skelton, is a village in the forest of Englewood 
 in that place where of antient time the country people that 
 had their swine, sheep, and milch beasts adgisted in the 
 forest, had certain shields and little cottages to rest in, 
 whilst they gathered together the summer profit of such 
 goods. And about the time of K. Hen. i^' the Boyvills 
 then Lords of Levington first planted a habitation there 
 for themselves and afterwards set some tenants there. In 
 their possession it continued in the heirs male untill the 
 death of Radulf de Levington. And his daughter and 
 heir Hewise wife of Sir Eustace Baliol Knt dying without 
 issue of her body, the Boyvills' lands in Levington, Kirk- 
 anders and Skelton, were divided amongst the six sisters 
 of Radulf Levington, aunts and next heirs to the said 
 Hawise for the seignory thereof. Howbeit their father 
 Richard de Levington and his ancestors had given forth 
 before that descent divers parts of the same to them and 
 others in frank marriage to whom it descended. 
 
 The purparty of Euphemia wife of . . . Kirkbride 
 continued in her blood six descents and then Walter Kirk- 
 bride sold it to Robert Parving. Sir Adam Parving, sister's 
 son to Robert, sold it to John Denton of Cardew and his 
 posterity enjoyed it four descents untill they sold it to the 
 Southaiks, who held it three or four descents and now John 
 Southaik hath sold it to the land tenants and customary 
 possessors.

 The second part fell to Margary the wife of Robert de 
 Hampton, whose nephew and grandchild William Loc- 
 hard son of Simon Lochard, sold the same to John Seaton 
 whose son and heir forfeited his right to King Edw. i=* 
 and the said King gave it to Robert Clifford, in whose 
 blood it continued till George now Earl of Cumberland 
 sold it to the inhabitants. 
 
 The third portion was allotted to Isabel the wife of Patrick 
 Southaik, son of Gilbert son of Gospatrick of Workington 
 from which Patrick it descended to John Southaik who 
 sold it to the customary tenants there. 
 
 The fourth part one Walter Corry held in the right of 
 Eva his wife, but their son and heir taking part with 
 Robert Bruce and the Scots against the King of England 
 forfeited his estate, which the King granted to one William 
 Marmion. 
 
 The fifth co-heir Julian the wife of Patrick Triumpe had 
 issue another Patrick Triumpe who sold that part to 
 Robert Tillioll Knt. 
 
 The sixth portion fell to Agnes the wife of Walter Twin- 
 ham Knt, who had issue Adam father to Walter the 
 younger, and he sold it to Walter Kirkbride. 
 
 Newton Reigny. Newton Reigny is a mannor and 
 village in the forest of Englewood. It is called Regny of

 33rd year of K. Hen. 2""^ William de Regny was impleaded 
 in a writ of right by one William de Lascells for a K"'^ 
 fee of land in Newton Reigny, sed non prcsvaluit for John 
 Reigny succeeded after William his father 4 King John,

 the inheritance fell to four sisters Elizabeth or Isabel 
 wife of . . . Horsley a fourth part, Nicholas de Walton

 THE BARONYS OF ADAM FIL. SWENI, 
 AND HENRY FIL. SWENI. 
 
 Beyond the river Eden on the east side thereof lyes a 
 great tract of land which (together with Edenhall on the 
 west side of the said river) were given to Adam the son 
 of Sweine a potent man in those days, and to Henry 
 the son of Sweine his brother, and for sometime kept up 
 the reputation of distinct baronies, but soon after a great 
 part thereof reverting to the crown, and the rest by several 
 mean conveyances being divided amongst several families, 
 it lost that reputation and is now to be looked upon as 
 distinct estates which have little or no dependance one 
 upon another. 
 
 CuLGAiTH. Culgaith and other lands in Cumberland 
 beyond Eden were given or confirmed by K. Hen. i^' to 
 Adam son of Sweine son of Ailrich, to be holden by cornage 
 Reddendo de Cornagio £5 12s. 6d. Regi. Adam's two daugh- 
 ters named Annabell and Matild were married to Alexander 
 Crenquer and Adam de Montebegon. Annabel was wife 
 afterwards to William de Nevill by whom she had issue 
 Thomas de Burgo, or a daughter to him married ; and 
 Thomas had issue another Thomas de Burgo who gave 
 to the monks of Brecton or confirmed to them his right 
 to those lands which William Nevill his grandfather and 
 Annabell his wife gave to them and which Adam the son 
 of Sweine gave them before. The said Thomas de Burgo 
 the younger gave to Simon son of Walter and Sara his 
 wife diverse of the lands by fine in the 7* of King John. 
 In whose time Roger de Montbegon, Simon son of Walter, 
 and Alexander de Nevill held the lands in Cumberland 
 that were the inheritance of Adam son of Sweine. The 
 
Il6 BARONY OF ADAM FIL.SWENI. 
 
 said Roger de Montbegon was son to Adam Montbegon 
 and to Matild* his wife aforesaid. They had issue also 
 Clementia a daughter married to . . . . de Longviller 
 who as I think was heir to Roger her brother. 
 
 In the i6th year of K. Hen. 3'''^ one WilHam son of John 
 by fine gave the moiety of Culgaith to one Gilbert or 
 Galfrid de Nevill and to Mabell the wife of G . ... 
 
 In the sixth year of the next King Ed. i'^* Michael de 
 Hartcla father to Andrew de Harcla the Earl of Carliell 
 held the moiety of Culgaith, and Walter Mulcaster and 
 Gilbert son of Robert Hawkesley the other half. Andrew 
 Harcla's part was forfeited by treason in Ed. 2°*^ time. 
 The residue became the lands of Sir Christopher Morisby. 
 In the 28th Ed. 3'''^ he died thereof seised, from whom it 
 descended to Lady Knevet the heir general to the Picker- 
 ings and Morisbies who sold the same to Henry Crekinthorp 
 of Newbiggen Esq., and the lands to four feoffees who 
 assigned to the tenants. 
 
 Blenkerne. Blenkarn was parcel of the barony of 
 Adam the son of Sweine and William de Nevill's lands at 
 the first, but afterwards it was granted forth in frank 
 marriage and became freehold holden of the heirs of Adam 
 and William Nevill ; and some part in frankalmoign granted 
 to the priory of Carliell. 
 
 In the time of K. John and before, the Thursbies of 
 Thursby held a moiety, and the Whitbies the other moiety. 
 In the nth of K. Hen. f^ Evon de Vipont and Sybill 
 (filia Adce) his wife gave six bovats in Blenkarne to Bernard 
 Thuresby, and her lands in Ainstable and Waverton ; all 
 which William Boyvill had in possession in his own right 
 as heir to the Thursebies in the 6th year of Ed. i^*. 
 He granted part thereof to the priory of Carliell which the 
 Dean and Chapter there yet hold. The residue descended 
 to Edmund Boyvill his second son, who sold it to John

 Hartcla. His brother Andrew Hartcla Earl of Carliell did

 father to William brother to Julian the wife of Ralph 
 Restwold mother to William Restwold father to Richard 
 Restwold whose heirs sold it to . . . Lough. 
 
 Skirwith. Skirwith was parcel of the said barony. 
 In the time of K. John one Jordan Spiggornell had free- 
 hold there and others, but the first that I read of that held 
 the township as mesne Lord thereof was Robert son of 
 Walter whom I take to be one of the Lancasters, he held 
 it in Edw. i^' time, and in the latter end of the reign of K. 
 Hen. 3'''^. Afterwards one John Lancaster de Holgill was 
 owner and died seised thereof in the 8th of Edw. 3'''^^ reign 
 and held the same of Thomas de Burgh, then one of the 
 heirs of the great barony or seignory of Adam son of 
 Sweine aforesaid. From John Lancaster it descended to 
 his cousin and heir Richard son of Richard Place, whose 
 heir gave it by fine to one William Lancaster, whose heir 
 general married to John Crakinthorp father to William 
 Crakinthorp father to John, whose three daughters and 
 heirs were married to Hutton of the Forest, Sandford of 
 Askham, and Middleton. Afterwards the Middletons were 
 Lords thereof. And now Hutton son of Thomas of Hutton 
 in the Forest and of . . . Middleton his wife daughter 
 and one of the co-heirs of ... . Middleton enjoyeth 
 the same in his mother's right, that is a part : and the rest 
 by purchase of the coparceners. 
 
 MelMorby. Melmorby Habitatio ad planitiem magnani 
 is the name of the town parish and capital messuage there, 
 now the dwelling house and seat of ... . Threlkeld 
 Esq. It lies between Gamelsby and Ulnesby and was 
 parcel of the barony of Adam son of Sweine. In the 
 reign of Hen. 3'''^ Odard then Lord of Wigton dyed seised 
 thereof, after whose death his son Walter de Wigton, John 
 son of Walter, and Margaret sole daughter and heir of the 
 said John and Dyonisia Lovetot his wife, were successively

 Lords thereof. Margaret was married to two husbands, 
 John Denom, K"', and John Weston, K"t, by whom she 
 had no issue. She gave Melmorby to Sir Robert Parving, 
 K"', the Kings Sergeant-at-law and Blechill also. After 
 Sir Robert his sister's son Adam son of John Peacock, 
 who named himself Adam Parving; he died 4 Ric. 2°*^ and 
 then Henry de Threlkeld entered to Melmorby in which 
 family of the Threlkelds it hath ever since continued in the

 on the south side of Gilsland divided from that barony by 
 Northskeugh Beck and reacheth from the river Eden on

 Ainstaplighe, Rucroft, and the Nunnery, which Nunnery 
 was founded by William Rufus. 
 
 This seignoi"y and other lands in Cumberland K. Henry 
 i^* gave to Adam the son of Sweine aforesaid, from whom 
 it descended in K. Hen. 2""^ time to William de Nevill, 
 whose lands in Cumberland in the reign of K. John were in 
 the holding of Roger Montebegon, Simond son of Walter, 
 and Alexander de Nevill. In K. Hen. 3'''^ time Ainstable 
 Lordship became the inheritance of John Mussey, Henry 
 Terriby, Michael de Valle son of David, and others about 
 the year of our Lord God 1239. ■^"'i i" the latter end of 
 that King's time William Boyvill of Thursby, Knt, was Lord 
 thereof and held the same of Richard Nevill. When he 
 dyed it fell to his son John Boyvill, whose brother Edmund 
 sold Ainstapligh to Andrew Harcla who forfeited it to the

 K. Ed. got the victory against Hen. 6* and thereby the 
 crown of England. Afterwards the Lord Humphrey Dacre

 it to Henry son of Sweine together with Edenhall. How- 
 beit this town did not long so continue with him nor his 
 posterity, for the King shortly after held it as Regium 
 Dominicum. King John had possession of it. Henry ^^'^ 
 gave it to Alexander King of Scots in part of ^£"200 land 
 granted to the Scots 1237 i^ the 21st year of his reign by 
 composition for the release of Cumberland and Northum- 
 berland, and other things in demand. The Kings of Scots 
 enjoyed it till John Balliol forfeited his lands, thenceforth 
 they did continue till Ric. 2°"^ time in the crown. He 
 granted those in Cumberland to Radulph Nevill Earl of 
 Westmorland and Johan his wife and the heirs of their

 He was one of the three sons of Haldan, the other two 
 were Thorquell and Melmor : Melmor and this Vlf were 
 placed in this part of the country, and Thorquell at Thor- 
 quellby near Keswick. The posterity of Vlf were called 
 Vlfnesbies of this place, as the place itself took name of 
 his first building there. It seems near the Conquest to 
 have been parted between two sisters, and shortly after a 
 moiety thereof betwixt four sisters ; for in the time of Hen. 
 3'^'^ one Julian Falcard and William Armstrong held the 
 moieties, and Henry le Sergeant and Patrick de Vlnesby 
 held eight parts, and the rest by alienations broken in 
 small parcels, whereof some were given to Lanercost, 
 some to the prior of St. John of Jerusalem, and others in 
 frank marriage and many small purchases. But William 
 Armstrong's part descended four descents and then was 
 given to Clement Crofton and Johan his wife by Adam 
 Armstrong who gave a third part thereof to Roger Sal-

 to John Raghton and he to Roger Salkeld an eighth part. 
 Salkeld's part descended by Alice and Margaret his daugh- 
 ters and heirs to their husband's children, John Cracken- 
 thorp and Thomas Plumland. And John Crofton the son 
 of Clement gave the other two third parts to William 
 Threlkeld and Katherine his wife. 
 
 Glassonby and Gamelsby. Glassonby beyond Eden 
 was first named Glass-oon by the Irish inhabitants, viz. : 
 the green towards or near the river being then a pasture 
 ground and not inhabited ; and afterwards it was called by 
 the Saxons Glassonby i.e., Hahitatio sive villa ad Glasson, 
 as the other village is named Gamelsby i.e., habitatio 
 Gamelli, the first founder of any building there. And 
 Gamelsby was a town before the Irish possessed the place. 
 
122 GLASSONBY AND GAMELSBY. 
 
 Both were one seignory bounded in then at the north by 
 the rill or httle beck called ... * that falleth from 
 
 the east mountains by and so descendeth 
 
 westward through Kirkoswald park into Eden which doth 
 bound it on the west, from whence the Lordship is extended 
 of a great breadth into the mountains untill it bound with 
 Aldred's town-moor a great waste on the east. 
 
 Gamelsby and Glassonby were given by K. Hen. i"' 
 William the Conqueror's son) unto one Hildred and his 
 heirs to be holden of the crown by cornage in capite red- 
 dendo per annum 2s de Cornagio, from whom it descended 
 to a daughter named Christian being ward to King John 
 who gave the wardship to William de Ireby. She was the 
 daughter of Odard son of Odard son of Odelyne son to 
 the said Hildred. William de Ireby had by Christian his 
 wife two daughters and heirs Christian and Eva. Eva had 
 a rent-charge out of the land and was married to Robert 
 D'evill and after to Adam de Chartres. She released to 
 her sister Christian the wife of Thomas Lassells of Bolton, 
 who had issue Aruinna Lassells married to John Seaton 
 whose son Christopher Seaton forfeited the same and 
 other lands to K. Ed. i^' by taking part with Robert 
 Bruce and the Scots. 
 
 The King thereupon gave his lands in Gamelsby and 
 Unthank to William Latimer father to William who had 
 issue William Latimer father to Elizabeth the wife of 
 John Nevill, father to Ralf Earl of Westmorland, who 
 gave his lands in Cumberland and diverse others to 
 George his son Lord Latimer from which George they 
 descended as their limitation directed to the Lords Lati- 
 mers named in the ensuing catalogue untill the last Lord 
 Latimer dyed. And then the four co-heirs his daughters 
 entered. The heir male is Edmund now Lord Latimer.

 sacra is the name of the town and parish there and of very 
 antient time it hath been so termed. The castle was 
 built by the Engaynes Lords of Burgh, Ishall, Herriby and 
 Kirkoswald. It was first founded by Radulf Engayne, 
 but far short of that beauty and state which it had after- 
 wards by his successors. Sir Hugh Morvill in K. John's 
 time inclosed the park in the second year of that reign by 
 the King's license. And Radulphus de Levington that 
 married Ada daughter of Johan Morvill daughter and co- 
 heir of Hugh Morvill, added thereunto a part of Gamelsby 
 and Glassonby. Thomas son of Thomas de Molton and 
 John de Castre that married the widow of Thomas Multon 
 of Gilsland in Ed. 2""^^ time made additions to the castle. 
 But the Lord Thomas Dacre that married the heir of 
 Greystock did finish it and mote it about with great 
 charge which notwithstanding in the third descent after 
 him is now in a manner altogether ruinous. 
 
 It was first parcel of the seignory of Adam son of Sweine 
 son of Ailrich, and granted forth with a daughter to Trives 
 Lord of Burgh chief forester in fee of Englewood Forest, 
 by whose daughter Ibria wife to Radulf Engayne it came 
 
 usually write themselves Featherston-haugh. This estate belonged to Leonard 
 Dacre in Q. Ellz. time, and upon his rebellion and forfeiture came to the Crown. 
 K. James Ano. R. sui S>'o granted it to John Eldred and Wm. Whitmore of Lon- 
 don Fsq. for go years who assigned the same term to Tho. Bartram. 
 
 The Seignory is now (Ano. 1687) in Thomas Lennard Earl of Sussex Lord 
 Dacre. Gilpin. 
 
 Part of the demesnes of Kirkoswald are now (1749) the inheritance of the 
 Featherstones, who are a branch of the Featherstones of Featherstonhaugh, com. 
 Northumberland, and generally write their names Featherstonehaugh or halgh. 
 The first of them I meet with was 
 
 Henry who married a daughter of Wyberghs of Clifton. 
 Timothy, afterwards knighted, their son, who was a great royalist during 
 the civil war and being taken prisoner at Chester fight was executed for fighting

 to him. This Lordship did contain Kirkoswald, New 
 Staffoll or Staffle, Ravenwick, Harskeugh, Huddleskeugh, 
 Little Croglin, and Kabergh alias Langbergh, and all the 
 lands and waste towards the east mountains from the river 
 Eden on the west and between Croglin water on the north 
 and the little rill Dale Raghon beck on the south that di- 
 vides it from Glassonby and Gamelsby. The heirs of Adam 
 son of Swene were Yorkshire men therefore not regarded 
 here and the owners of Kirkoswald commanders. And 
 after the making of Magna Charta and the rebellion of 
 Roger Montebegon mesne Lord the terrtenants and inferior 
 Lords held it of the King in baronia immediately. 
 
 Newstaffol or Staffle lyes between Kirkoswald and Ain- 
 staple, from the river Eden to the mountains. It is a fee 
 of Kirkoswald and gave name to a family so called. The 
 issue male whereof ended about the time of King . . 
 and then the inheritance fell to daughters who did transfer 
 it by their marriages to the Chambers, Mulcasters, and 
 Blennerhassetts of Carliell. 
 
 Croglin parva stands in the same parish and township 
 and is a fee of Kirkoswald. It was antiently the Beau- 
 champs, untill K. Hen. 7"^ time, and then the Dacres 
 Lords paramount purchased it to their seignory. Antiently 
 toward the time of K. Hen. i=* one Vghtred held a part 
 thereof, and Dame Ibria de Trivers another. And after- 
 wards one Elias de Croglin, William his son and William 
 son of William his nephew who gave some part of the 
 same to the house of Wederhall, which Roger Beauchamp 
 confirmed, that is the fifth part of the town now (as I 
 think) called Cringle Dyke. 
 
 Harskeugh. Harskeugh superior silva is a village or 
 stead near Ravenwike, now the lands of Henry son of 
 Christopher son of Sir Thomas Dacre Knt, who holds it 
 by purchase from K. Hen. 8"^ and was belonging to the 
 priory of Lanercost. The priors predecessor had it of the 
 gift of Dame Ada de Engaine, daughter of William son of

 Ralph Engayne. Her son Hugh de Morvill son of Simon 
 de Morvill, confirmed it to the prior in K. Hen. 2^^ time 
 or in the beginning of King John's reign. And before it 
 belonged to Kirkoswald as part of that seignory. The 
 Channons used it for cattle and the mountains for sheep 
 pasture. And thereupon I should think that stoney hill to 
 be called Careg-monach in old evidences and now corruptly 
 Cattermanak, but that the word Carrock is British or Irish 
 and therefore some deal more antient. By some others 
 religious therefore having right there it hath been so named 
 before the conquest. 
 
 HuDLESKEUGH. Huddleskeugh Capreolarum Silva was 
 in times past a woody place on the common pasture of 
 Kirkoswald where the township of Kirkoswald and the 
 Lords thereof wintered their herds of young goats, but 
 now the wood is gone and the place is become a little 
 village demised to tenants. In King John's time one 
 Robert de Hudleskeugh held it of the Morvills Lords of 
 
 Kirkoswald, and then one Radulf de toff 
 
 in Westmorland gave a part thereof to the house of 
 Wetherall for Sir Hugh Morvill's soul (that killed Thomas 
 a Beckett Archbishop of Canterbury), his landloi^d some- 
 time of the same or the feoffor that gave it to his ancestor. 
 And the prior presently granted it to Robert de Salkeld by 
 consent of Robert then abbot of York, and to any of 
 Robert Salkeld's sons in heritage whom he would make 
 choice of. I take the same Robert Salkeld to be called 
 Robert de Hudleskeugh, because he then did dwell there.

 THE BARONY OF GILSLAND. 
 
 The Barony of The ^reat barony of Gilsland lyeth on 
 GiLSLAND. the east side of the river Eden all along 
 
 the river side from the border of Lin- 
 stok and Crosby barony unto Northskeugh beck, a rill that 
 divides Ainstaplygh from the same. Above that beck to- 
 wards the mountains the border of Gilsland compasseth in 
 Croglin up eastward into the fells, where the bounder of the 
 county divides the barony from Northumberland untill the 
 head of a rill called Powtross. Then the Powtross untill 
 it be received of Irthing : and from thence the river Irthing 
 itself till it receive Troutbeck. And thence Troutbeck 
 untill the head thereof on the north-east side of the same 
 on the utmost limits both of the barony and county. 
 
 It is called Gilsland of many little narrow valleys in the 
 same, which the inhabitants call Gills, in latin Valles, in 
 French Vaulx. 
 
 This great barony was given by the Earl Randolph 
 Meschiens to one Hubertus to be holden of him by two 
 Knights fees and by cornage.* The same Hubert was 
 called de Vallibus or Vaulx of the dales and valleys between 
 hills whereof that country is everywhere full. That 
 French word Vaulx (pronounced Vaus) became thence a 
 sirname to the said Hubert and his posterity there, and to 
 diverse other families that took their beginning from the

 younger brothers of this house : as Vaulx of Triermaine, 
 of Ainstaplygh, of Caterlen, of Caldbeck, &c. 
 
 Hubertus was a kinsman or follower of the said Earl 
 Randolph in the latter end of the Conqueror's time when 
 the peace of the county began to be established, and 
 served under the Earl's brother William Meschiens there 
 in Gilsland. 
 
 King Henry i^' confirmed this barony unto the said 
 Hubert to be holden of the King in capite, when the Earl 
 Randolf resigned the county of Cumberland to the King 
 and obtained the Earldom of Chester after the death of 
 Richard the second Earl of Chester who with the said 
 King's children coming out of Normandy was drowned in 
 the sea on the coast of England, to which Richard the 
 said Randolf was next heir and cousin german, the son 
 of John Bohun by his wife Margaret the sister of Hugh 
 Lupus first Earl of Chester. 
 
 The said Hubert did bear to his arms checqer d'or et 
 gules. His seal was a griphon eating a lacert.* 
 
 After he was possessed of the barony peaceabl}- he gave 
 diverse parts thereof by the name of mannors and other 
 lands some lo the antient inhabitants and other to his 
 friends and kinsmen : and such as he so preferred he bound 
 them by alliance and marriage to his house and by all 
 other good means he could devise. 
 
 He gave Denton in Gilsland to one Wescop, by his deed 
 of feoffment in these words: Omnibus Cumbrensibus Franci- 
 genis Alienigenis, Danis, Normannis, Hubertus de Vallibus 
 Salutem &c., which makes probably to prove his antiquity 
 and what people did then or late before inhabit that 
 country. 
 
 Hubert de Vallibus had two brethren Robert de Dalston 
 and Reginald de Soureby ; to this Reginald he gave Carlat- 
 
 * A lizard. Editor. 
 
GILSLAND. 129 
 
 ton in Gilsland and Hubertby beside Carliell, which gift 
 Randolph Meschiens confirmed. 
 
 He gave also Farlam to one Westfalan, and Chorkby to 
 to one Odard, and divers other manners and lands in Gils- 
 land partly to his followers and partly to the antient 
 inhabitants to lye them more firmly to his house. Yet his 
 new reconciled enemies continued but a short time his 
 friends, for in King Stephen's time when the Scots under 
 their King David and Earl Henry FitzDavid possessed the 
 county of Cumberland, they stood with the antient heir 
 one Gillesbueth or Gill son of Bueth, against Hubert's 
 title to Gilsland. 
 
 I read of one Beweth a Cumberland man, about the 
 time of the conquest. He builded Bewcastle and was 
 Lord of Buecastle Dale. His son Gillesbeweth had a pre- 
 tended right to all or part of the barony of Gilsland, at 
 least to that part of the same which adjoineth to Bew- 
 castle. He was kinsman to the antient Lords of Burgh 
 barony which were before the conquest either by consan- 
 quinity or affinity. This Gillesbeweth and Bueth his father 
 it is said stood with Hubert de Vallibus and before him 
 with William Meschiens when he lay there in garrison by 
 commandment of his brother Earl Randolph, in the Con- 
 queror's time, the father Beweth being then a follower 
 of Gospatrick the great. But attempting something after- 
 wards for the recovery of his antient right of which it seems 
 he was dispossessed or upon some other discontent he was 
 banished. And though the register book of the Abbey of 
 Lanercost reports his son Gillesbeweth (who is there called 
 Gill fil Beweth) to be Lord of Gilsland, yet he never pos- 
 sessed a foot in the same, for that he was an infant at the 
 time of his father's banishment and was afterwards seated 
 in Scotland where he dwelt till he was slain, as will after be 
 made appear. His children and posterity in Scotland were 
 called of his name Gillesbeweth or Lairds Gillesbeweth 
 corruptly Gillesbies or Lairds of Gillesby, of the place 
 
130 GILSLAND. 
 
 where he dwelt which was so called because he first 
 builded there. 
 
 Being thus disinherited and malecontent he wasted the 
 country and in King Stephen's time when the Scots were 
 let into Cumberland he took that opportunity to incite as 
 many as he could to assist him to recover his estate in 
 Gilsland from Hubert de Vallibus. And it seems notwith- 
 standing the alliances and other obligations which the 
 said Hubert had laid upon the inhabitants to bind them 
 to him they took part with Gillesbeweth as the right heir. 
 
 But afterwards when Henry FitzEmpress obtained the 
 crown of England and took Cumberland again from the 
 Scots, he regranted the barony of Gilsland to Hubert de 
 Vallibus in Jicbc verba — Totam terramquam Gillfil Bueth tenuit 
 et de incvemento Chorkby quant Westubright fil Willmi Stephen 
 tenuit et Caterleng ctim molendino quce Willitred fil Halden 
 tenuit. Afterwards about the loth year of Hen. 2^^ Hubert 
 dyed so that K. Hen. 2"*^ rather confirmed Gilsland to 
 Hubert de Vaulx than first gave it, for if Hubert then lived 
 he was of extreme age. Yet the copy of an inquisition 
 returned by the Sherriff of Cumberland into the Exchequer 
 saith : Robertus de Vallibus tenet terrani suam de Dno Rege 
 per servicium duoruni Militum quam Rex Henricus pater Dni 
 Regis dedit Hugoni de Vallibus antecessori suo per prcedidum 
 servicium. This inquisition was taken in King John's time. 
 
 Upon the grant by K. Hen. 2""^ unto Hubert de Vallbus, 
 Robert de Vallibus his son a valorous gentleman and well 
 learned in the law of this land, entered into the barony 
 of Gilsland and enjoyed the same, but yet not so but 
 that Gillesbeweth still continueth to give him disturbance, 
 whereupon a meeting for agreement was appointed between 
 them under trust and mutual assurance of safety to each 
 other (which meeting they call a tryste). At this meeting 
 Robert de Vallibus slew the said Gill which shameful 
 treason made him bear arms and betake himself to his 
 book at the Inns of Court, where he so profited that he

 came justice itinerant into Cumberland in the 23'''' year of 
 K. Hen, 2"'^, with Ranulph Glanvill and Robert Piknet his 
 associates (which Ranulph Granvill succeeded Richard 
 Lucy in the office of Lord Chief Justice of England, in the 
 26''' year of that king, when Richard became a monk in the 
 Abbey of Lenos or Westwood, resigning that office for age 
 and debility). Robert de Vallibus was of so much account 
 with Hen. 2"'^, that that King did little in Cumberland with- 
 out his advice and council, yet could not his conscience be 
 at quiet untill he made satisfaction for the murder of Gilles- 
 beweth, by endowing Holy Church with part of that patri- 
 mony which occasioned the murder, and therefore he 
 founded the priory of Lanercost in Gilsland. 
 
 The king remitted 18'' cornage rent due out of these 
 lands to this Robert ; yet he was fined for suffering money 
 to be current in his liberties, which the king had forbid by 
 proclamation, and for the escape of certain prisoners, 
 Robert dyed without issue male and Hugh his kinsman 
 and next heir succeeded him, to whom K, Hen, 2"^ for the 
 better strengthening of his title confirmed the Barony of 
 Gilsland, as appears by the old inquisition afterwards 
 taken in K. John's time, to whom succeeded Ranulph de 
 Vallibus in the seignory of Gilsland in Rich, i^' time ; and 
 after Ranulph his son and heir Robert de Vallibus other- 
 wise called Robert fil Radi. This was the same Robert 
 Vaulx that was found to be tenant of the land by the 
 said inquisition taken in King John's time, and remaining 
 yet of record. He confirmed to the priory of Wederhall 
 certain lands in Korkby, Denton, Newby and Burdoswald, 
 as lord paramount. 
 
 After this Robert Vaux, Hubert was Baron of Gilsland, 
 whose daughter and heir Matild or Maud lady of Gilsland 
 was married to Thomas son of Thomas de Multon and Ada 
 Morvill daughter of Hugh Morvill, by whom she had 
 issue the third Thomas Multon, called Thomas de Multon 
 de Gilsland, who died in the 23'''^ year of King Edward i'^'. 
 
132 GILSLAND. 
 
 By this Maud* the Vaux's lands in Cumberland were trans- 
 ferred to the Multons, who enjoyed the same for four 
 descents lineally from father to son named all successively 
 Thomas with some addition. 
 
 The first Thomas Multon married Ada Morvill, late 
 wife to Richard Lucy by whom he had issue Thomas the 
 second, called Thomas fil Thomse ; and by a former wife he 
 had issue Lambert Multon and Alan Multon, whom he 
 married to the two daughters and co-heirs of Richard 
 Lucy, named Annabill and Alice. Lambert by his wife 
 Annabil became lord of Egremont, and Alan by his wife 
 was lord of the moiety of Allerdale, and the twentieth part 
 of Egremont. 
 
 The second Thomas Multon named fil Thomse married 
 Matild Vaux as aforesaid, and by her had issue Thomas 
 Multon de Gilsland his heir of Burgh and Gilsland, and 
 two younger sons Edward, and Hubert to whom he gave 
 Ishall, which Hubert bore for his arms the same coat 
 which the Lighs of Ishall his heirs by blood now give, 
 viz. : five pieces barwise azure and argent. t See the rest

 t After the attainder of the Lord Dacres and the marriage of the two sisters and

 one Philip Hastings, in whose issue male it descended till 
 Ed. i^' time and then Croglin and his other lands in West- 
 morland fell to his daughters, married to 
 
 Wharton, ancestor to the now Lord Wharton and to War- 
 copp, but now the Lord Wharton holds it all to himself. It 
 is part of Gilsland and holden of the lords thereof. One 
 of these Hastings was with King ... at the seige 
 of Jerusalem, and received a grant of the king there of 
 lands which the king gave him in England. The Lord 
 Wharton's coat is the arms of those Hastings, but he 
 hath added to them a border of Or charged with lion's paws 
 in saltire about the Hastings coat, which is a manche 
 argent in a field sable. 
 
 Chorkby. The mannor of Chorkby in Gilsland hath 
 been from the Conquest of England a gentleman's seat. 
 It was given by Hubert first baron of Gilsland to one 
 Odard to whom also the Earl Randulph gave the mannor 
 of Warthwik on the west side of the river Eden. Odard 
 had issue Osbert and William. Osbert succeeded in the 
 inheritance, and granted to the house of Wederhall the 
 chamber of St. Constantine, and diverse liberties in 
 Chorkby and lands in Warthwik. Osbert died without 
 issue, wherefore the mannor fell to his brother William 
 who had issue John and Robert by his wife Oswina. John 
 was eldest yet he seated himself at W^arwik and let his 
 brother Robert possess Chorkby. William son of Odard 
 had issue another son named Alan who was Lord of Lang- 
 thwait, his brother Robert gave him lands in Warthwik, 
 and another son called Ranulf.

 Castle Carok. The first freeholder that I read of, 
 of Castle Carok, was one Eustace de Vallibus, to whom 
 Hubert de Vallibus first Lord of Gilsland gave it in Hen. 
 2"** time, together with Hayton also. This Eustace gave 
 a carucat of land in Hayton and another in Castle Carok. 
 to the house of Lanercost. It is called Castle Carok 
 quasi Castrum de Rupe and was also in Hen. 2°*^ time the 
 inheritance of one Robert de Castle Carok, after him it 
 descended successively to Robert his son and Richard his 
 grandchild, whose son Robert was the last of that name 
 inheritor thereof. He died in Ed. i^' time and left three 
 daughters which he begot on the body of Christian de Crok- 
 dake (aunt and one of the two co-heirs of John son of 
 John son of Adam Crokdaik), viz : Johan wife of Thomas 
 Newbiggin, Christian wife of Michael Apulby, and Margery 
 wife of William Eglesfield. Newbiggin's part descended 
 to three daughters and heirs, viz., Helen wife of Richard 
 Hale, Margaret wife of Thomas Hale, and Alice wife of 
 John Hale, all of Kirkby Thore. Alice's part came to the 
 Lothers of Crokdaik, and from them to the Musgraves 
 of Crokdaik, now owners thereof. Margaret's part by a 
 daughter named Alice wife of Collinson fell to two daugh- 
 ters, Johan wife of Gilbert Carlton and Margaret wife of 
 John Bethom of Thrimby. And in the fourth descent 
 Elizabeth Bethom their heir wife of Robert Salkeld had

 eldest sister Helen, but one William Kitchen who sold 
 the ninth part of Castle Carok to Ranulph Daker that 
 married Multon's heir.* 
 
 The purparty of Christian Castle Carok fell by her 
 daughter named Christian to William Ritson, and by their 
 daughter Mariott to Thomas Alanby, and by their daughter 
 to John de Westlevington, and by his daughter Elizabeth 
 to Alexander Highmore, whose heir in the third or fourth 
 descent sold it to Daker. 
 
 The third co-heirs part Margery wife of Eaglesfield. 
 
 Hayton. Hayton Villa in Colle was freehold in Hubert 
 Vaulx's time who gave it to Eustace Vaulx his cousin, and 
 so it continued four descents. The Lord thereof had a 
 daughter and heir married to John son of Robert son of 
 Anketin de Denton.

 were both brethren to one William de Kersmier the . . . 
 of Willitred son of Haldan sometime Lord of Katerleing, 
 which K. Hen. a"'^ gave to Hubert Vaulx after he had 
 seised it, (because Willitred took part with K. Stephen) as 
 forfeited. And therefore in King John's time the said 
 William de Kersmyra brought a writ of mort d'ancestor 
 against William Vaux son of Hubert and Robert son of 
 the said William then Lords of Katerleng, but could not 
 recover the land. The said Walter de Windsore had issue

 the land in 23 Ed. i^'. And in Ed. 3'''*^ time John de 
 Farleham held it who gave it unto Ranulph Daker and 
 Margret Multon his wife then Lords of Gilsland, and to 
 their heirs after John de Farleham's death and of one 
 Andrew Latton. Thenceforth it hath continued demesne to 
 the Lords of Gilsland. The said Walter Wyndsore gave for 
 arms a saltier sable in field d'argent. There are some of 
 this sirname left at this day which are descended from one 
 John de Wyndsore, brother to the second Walter Windsore 
 (to whom he gave Farlam parva). John had issue Rayner 
 and Solomon, and Rayner had Bernard the father of 
 Richard, which Solomon and Richard endowed the houses 
 of Wederhall and Lanercost with lands in little Farlam. 
 
 Brampton. Brampton in Gilsland was for the most 
 part demesne lands and the town was of long time a 
 market town, first granted so to be by King .... to 
 . Lord of Gilsland, and so continueth to this 
 day. At Brampton the Lords do yearly keep the courts 
 leet and view of frank pledge for the barony of Gilsland 
 now, howbeit the head and chief seat was at Irthington in 
 the Vaulx's time and the Multon's. The town is now all 
 customary tenancies or demesnes for the Dakers have 
 wronge out all the freeholders of Irthington and Brampton 
 save Corkby and some few small tenancies of the meaner 
 sort of people. 
 
 CoMBCATCH. Comb-catch Convallis ad dorsam Collis, 
 is now a farm in Brampton parish and is demesne. It 
 stands in a bottom on the backside of a hill, and is en- 
 vironed with hills and wood ground. In K. Hen. 3'''' and

 dyed seised thereof ; and before that time I do not read of 
 it. The ancient capitall mansion house of Gilsland was 
 at a place in Irthington parish called the Castlestead, 
 where is as yet to be seen the ruins of the castle where 
 Gill fil Bueth dwelt, and which Hubert Vaux had of the 
 gift of Henry 2"'*. And it was called the mannor of Irth- 
 oon-towne, contractly Irthington villa ad rivttm Irthing. 
 The river gave name to the town, mannor, and the castle. 
 The Lords thereof suffered it to decay as a thing of rude 
 edification, and of the ruins thereof built Naworth which 
 in success of time was bettered by the owners and by like 
 time through negligence more than age begins now to 
 decline and lose that beauty and strength which it lately 
 had, as all such worldly things do which are subject to 
 time. 
 
 Denton. Denton villa in profimdo. The place in Gils- 
 land where Denton stands is a great deep valley. The 
 Irish call " deep " in their language Dgen. Upon that 
 Irish word the place was called by the Saxons Dsein and 
 upon the first habitations there Daein-town. There are two 
 Dentons there. Over Denton which is in Northumber- 
 land* now the Withrington's lands and stands beyond the 
 great Bottom ; and Nether Denton in Cumberland late the 
 Dakers lands in the Low. Both of them are parcel of the 
 barony of Gilsland. The first possessor that I read of 
 was one Wescop, to whom Hubert de Vallibus Lord of 
 Gilsland gave Denton in or about Hen. 2""^^ time, Wescope 
 gave it to one Gilles Bueth or Bueth's Barnt (otherwise 
 that Gillesbueth and Bueth Barn was but one person). 
 He had issue Robert son of Bueth, who died without issue. 
 His sisters were married to Addock Lord of Bothcastre 
 and to Eustace Vaux Lord of Hayton in Gilsland ; the 
 one had Over Denton and the other had Nether Denton,

 which was the two moieties then by partition. Hayton's 
 part was given to John son of Robert son of Anketin or 
 Asketill de Denton, and Robert brother to the said John 
 married the heir to the other part. The said Robert fil 
 Bueth was their mother's brother. He gave the church 
 to the house of Wedderhall, and after his death David son 
 of Tirry and Robert son of Asketill, gave it to the house 
 of Lanercost, whereupon grew great suit till the contro- 
 versy was ended by the mediation of the popes legate who 
 divided the profits between them and gave the presentation 
 of the vicarage to the Bishop. 
 
 Over Denton 7 Ed. i'" was given by Richard Stowland 
 and Helena his wife to John Withrington with whose 
 issue male it remains at this day. 
 
 And Nether Denton descended from the said John son 
 of Robert son of Anketin to John and to Richard Denton 
 Knight his son's son, whose daughter Margaret wife to 
 Adam Copley of Bateley in Craven, had it in marriage 17 
 Ed. 2"*^. John son of Adam had issue Richard Copley 
 whose daughter Isabel wife to Adam Denton son of 
 Thomas del Hall had Denton from her father in marriage 
 in Hen. 4* time. Thomas Denton Esq., now of Warnell, 
 the son of Thomas son of John holds Warnell in exchange 
 for Denton, which exchange was made in the 23rd of Hen.

 This family is supposed to be an illegitimate branch of the Dacres, Lords of 
 Gilsland, for in their coat of arms there is the Bar of difference or Bastard Bar. 
 However the first Sir Thomas was a man of great prowess and made his fortune 
 by the sword, for Edward the sixth (pursuing the intentions of his father Henry 
 8.), gave him the scite of this dissolved priory and the estate belonging thereto as 
 a reward for his services, as appears by the following verses which were formerly 
 in the windows of the dining room belonging to the family, but are now in the 
 east window of the Parish Church.

 was so named of the first habitations there, as built on 
 part of that wall. At the conquest it was a great forest 
 and waste ground. In K. H. 2"'^" time they were granted 
 by Robert son of Hubert Vaulx Lord of Gilsland, to the 
 prior and convent of Lanercost (which was there first by 
 him founded in the name of Mary Magdalen) in these 
 terms Landam de Lanercost et villam de Walton, and bounders 
 them by certain limits. He gave them also the churches 
 of Walton, Irthington, Brampton, Karlatton and Farlam, 
 with the chapel of Trevermain and the lands of Warby, 
 Colman, Roswrageth, and Apletreethwait, and divers 
 liberties for their goods in his forests thereunto adjoyning 
 at Lanercost there. About the year of Grace 1116,-- they 
 begun to build the scite of the priory and the church, where- 
 unto in success of time they moved the gentlemen to give 
 much land and revenue to have their bodies buried there and 
 for their souls health, as the Engaynes and Morvills in 
 Harskeugh, the Windsors in Catch and Farleham, Dentons 
 in Denton, Vaulxs in Hayton, Geltsdale, and Triermaine, 
 Newtons and Robert de la Sore in Grinsdale, and many 
 others in diverse parts of the country, till they had gotten

 a goodly stipend for every person in the priory, and enough 
 to defray their extraordinary charges. The greatest cause 
 that moved Robert Vaux to found this priory was the 
 death of Gill fil Bueth antient Lord of the barony of Gilsland 
 whom the said Robert had caused to be slain under trust 
 at a meeting set for agreement between him and Hubert 
 Vaulx father to Robert to whom the King had given Gill's 
 patrimony because he took part with the Scots as history 
 reporteth. Howbeit the deed and charter made to the 
 prior by the said Robert is pro anima Regis Hen. 2 et Huberti

 after his death was thenceforth always demesne lands and 
 not freehold. But the lord had certain bondmen and vil- 
 lains which laboured the town to the lord's use in Ed. i^'^ 
 time and before. But now there is a little stone peel where 
 the land sergeant of Gilsland doth reside, that commands 
 and leads the inhabitants of the barony in the lord's ser-

 Combquinton to the House of Lanercost. After in Ed.

 of long time before the Lords of Gilsland have reduced 
 the freehold and demised it to tenants.

 Gilsland. One Gilandus was Lord tiiereof, he stood 
 against the Conqueror, and his son and heir Gilarnor got 
 his own peace with Randolf Meschiens, Lord of Cum- 
 berland and his brother WilUam Meschiens, and quietly 
 enjoyed it in Hen. i""^ time, and builded the first chapel of 
 wood by license of Athelwald first Bishop of Carliell : and 
 by consent of Enoc then parson of Walton Kirk (in whose 
 parish it was) he made his cousin Gilamor first chaplain 
 thereof, after which chaplain succeeded one Daniel, and 
 after him Augustine that lived in the time of Thomas 
 parson of Walton, which Thomas became a canon in 
 Lanercost when it was founded, and then the Rectory was 
 appropriate to Lanercost. After the death or banishment 
 of Gilamor Lord of Triermaine and Torcrossock, Hubert 
 Vaulx gave Triermaine and Torcrossock to his second son 
 Ranulph Vaulx, which Ranulph afterwards became heir to

 Gilamor's lands to his own younger son named Roland,

 and Cammok corruptly. The nature of the soil and form 
 of the place caused the first name, for there is a great bog 
 or fenny mire in a bottom or low round hole in the glan or 
 dale near unto the town. The first possessor that I read 
 of was one Alfred de Camok in K. Hen. 2"'^ time. After- 
 wards in Hen. 3^^*^= time and Ed. i^'^ it belonged to the 
 Tirryes. One Richard Tirry held it of Thomas Multon 
 then Lord of Gilsland, by the eighth part of a Knight's fee

 son. In 36 Ed. 3"^*^ William Stapleton and Robert de

 Stapleton. Stapleton was first demesne of Gilsland 
 and granted very antiently forth as a fee to the Lords of 
 Kirklevington. Richard de Levington died seised of a 
 moiety thereof in 34 Hen. 3'''^, from him it descended to 
 Radulf Levington who by Ada Gernon his wife (daughter to 
 Richard Gernon the elder, and to Johan Morvill the second 
 daughter and co-heir of Sir H ugh Morvill) had issue Hawise 
 the wife of Sir Eustace I^aliol. Hawise died without issue, 
 therefore Stapleton and other the Levington's lands fell to 
 her father's six sisters so -became Matild de Carrick her 
 heir of Stapleton. Roland Carrick her son gave it to 
 Piers Tyllioll in Ed. y^'' time. And at that time the Staple- 
 tons held the other moiety which descended to the Mus- 
 graves, and the other moiety to the Moresbies and Covills

 (i.e., filius jimioris uxoris) was an Irishman and took part 
 with K. Stephen, thei-efore his son Gospatrick compounded 
 with K. Henry for his father's living. After him K. John 
 gave it to Robert Ross of Wark in Tindall, together with 
 Sowerby and Hubbertby, untill the said Robert Ross 
 recovered his lands in Normandy, which he lost in the 
 King's service. Hen. 3'^'' took them from him and gave 
 them to Alexander King of Scots and his successors who 
 held the same untill K. Edw. i^' seised them for the revolt 
 of John Baliol K. of Scots, since which time it was Regiuin 
 Dominicum untill K. Rich. 2'"^ time who granted the same 
 to Radulf Nevill Earl of Westmorland, and Johan his 
 wife. After him it descended to Richard his son Earl of 
 Salisbury. And after him to Richard Earl of Warwick 
 his son, who was slain at Barnet. After whose death King 
 Ed. 4"" gave it to his brother Richard Duke of Gloucester 
 being afterwards King. And since that time it continued 
 in the possession of the crown. I read of one Ughtred de 
 Karlatton and after him Robert de Karlatton in Henry 3'^'*

 it appears not.

 built by one Bewth which was called Bothcastre after-

 was called Bewcastle Dale. Antiently it was the seat 
 of the said Beweth then Lord of Gilsland, or a great part 
 thereof but he being banished for taking part with the 
 Scots in King Stephen's time, seated himself in Scotland 
 as did his son Gillesbueth after him, and this dale together 
 with all the rest of his lands were given by Hen. 2°*^ 
 to Hubert de Vallibus, but whether or no he enjoyed it 
 does not appear. But shortly after it was possessed by 
 one Addock who married with the Lord of Denton, which 
 Denton the said Hubert de Vallibus had then lately given 
 to one Wescop his follower or kinsman. But whether the 
 said Addock was kinsman, friend, or enemy to Beweth's 
 posterity I find not. It would seem that Gillesbueth being 
 dispossessed himself and he and his posterity forced to 
 settle in Scotland, he made the place too hot for any of 
 Hubert Vaulx's posterity, wasting all that part of the 
 country in revenge by frequent inroads upon the same, 
 for being greatly infested by the Scots, as it is to this 
 day, none durst inhabit there till the barons of Burgh 
 barony took upon them to summer their cattle there and 
 made them shields and cabbins for their people, dwelling 
 themselves in tents and booths for defence, at which time 
 it was a waste forest ground and fit for the depasturing of 
 the cattle of the Lords of Burgh and their tenants they 
 having no other pasture for them, because the barony itself 
 was very populous and well inhabited, fitting better for 
 corn and meadow than for pasture. And thereupon it is 
 always found in antient inquisitions as parcel of that 
 barony and to be holden of the same. But it is not within 
 the said barony for the two seignories of Lyddall and 
 Levington lye between Burgh and it. It became inhabited 
 originally long before Hen. 3'''^ time upon the building of 
 that castle which is now there standing. And in Hen. 3'^'^

 mander in the Army Royal under the Earl Randulph. 
 His posterity changed their sirname from Boyvill unto 
 Levington, so many of them as did reside there, viz., the 
 Lords of the chief seignory at Kirklevington, a younger 
 brother named Reginald Lord of the mannor or capital 
 messuage of West Levington, and his posterity Adam, 
 Hugh, Hugh, John, and John, whose daughter transferred 
 the inheritance of West Levington to Alexander Highmore 
 of Harbybrow and his heirs in Ed. 4*^'^ time. And in 
 Henry 8'^ time one of the heirs of the said Alexander sold 
 the same to the Lord Dacres, whose patrimoney is now in 
 the Queen's hands by attainder. And another brother of 
 the Boyvills named Randolf also seated himself at Ran- 
 
 * Tromp's purparty of this barony as below, was in the second descent sold to 
 Robert Tilliol Knt, and so likewise was another of the purparties of the said 
 co-heirs, whereby he became possessed of a third part of Levington barony, which 
 from him came at last amongst other of the Tylliol's lands to the Musgraves. 
 And Joseph Appleby son of Edmund Appleby now (16S7) enjoys the mannor of 
 Kirklevington parcell of the said barony, which Edward purchased the same of Sir 
 Edward Musgrave Bart, who in right of his part of the said barony held (as the 
 Applebys have done since) a court leet and view of frankpledge at their mannor 
 of Kirklevington. Gl I.PIN.

LEVINGTON. I51 
 
 dolf Levington in Lyddal barony, so naming the place of 
 his dwelling which by his daughter in the next discent 
 became the Kirkbride's lands, so much doth Almighty God 
 scorn that foolish ambitious desire of man, thinking to live 
 by trust in himself and by his own will and strength to 
 establish his name and succession. Another brother named 
 Robert was placed on a carucat of land at Bothcastre and 
 thereupon was called Robert de Bothcastre. Another 
 brother married the daughter and heir of Thuresbies Lords 
 of Thursby and Waverton, his name was Guido Boyvill. 
 He gave to his arms argent a frett vert whereunto was 
 added a canton in the right corner or quarter of the field, 
 of what colour or content I cannot report. I have seen 
 his seal of arms at diverse evidences, and the colours on 
 glass in St. Maryes church in Carliell on the south side 
 of the quire, the canton broken out and defaced. This 
 Guido had issue William and he John. They two were 
 both Knights and all foresters in Allerdale from Shawk to 
 Eln, which was the Westward of the Forest of Englewood 
 which office descended unto them from Herbert deThuresby 
 first Lord of Thuresby, by the gift of Alan second Lord of 
 Allerdale the son of Waldeof. 
 
 Richard de Levington the last of that name baron 
 Levington dyed the 34 of K. Hen. 3'"'' his . . . Radulf 
 of Levington had issue Hawise his onl}' daughter and

 co-heirs her father's sisters and their children. And her 
 moiety of Burgh, Aikton, Kirkoswald, and Leysingby to 
 her cousin german Thomas son of Thomas de Multon.

 Orton in the barony of Burgh, and Skelton in the 
 forest of Englewood, are notwithstanding parcel of this 
 barony of Levington. And all the lands that were in the 
 possession of the Lords of Levington were by inquisition 
 found to be parcel of their barony where ever they lay.

 Scaleby, which took name first of the buildings there 
 which they call scheales or skales more properly of the latin 
 word Scalinga a cabbin or cottage. When King Henry i^' 
 had established Carliell he gave that Lordship unto one 
 Richard the Ryder, whose sirname was Tylliolf* who 
 planted habitations there. From him it descended by one 
 or two degrees unto Simon Tylliolf, in the latter end of K. 
 Hen. 2"*^ time. His son Piers Tylliof or Peter, was ward to 
 Geoffrey Lucy by the King's grant about the time of King 
 John. (This Geoffrey de Lucy did bear the cap of main- 
 tenance before K. Richard i=' at his coronation). Peter 
 Tylliolf married the daughter of the said Geoffrey Lucy his 
 tutor and guardian, and had issue two sons by her, one 
 named Geoffrey after his wife's fathers name, and another

 estate. He sold Kirklevington to Edmund Appleby, Houghton to Arthur Forster 
 of Stonegarthside, Richardby to Cuthbert Studholme, and Scaleby to Richard 
 Gilpin who now 1687 enjoys the same, together with Richardby which he also 
 purchased of Michael Studholme son of Cuthbert.

 The Colvills aforementioned are in some old writing^s called Colvill als. Tilliol 
 which was upon this occasion. After the death of William Colvill the son of 
 Isabel one ot the daughters and co-heirs of Peter de Tilliol, Robert the second son 
 of the said Isabel pretended a title to the estate of his grandfather alledging that 
 he had made a feoffment to the use of his will, and that afterwards he had made 
 a will by which he devised that William Colvill his grandson should change his 
 name to Tilliol, and have the manners of Houghton, Richardby, Ireby, Solprat, 
 his moiety of Newbigging and his third part of Kirklevington together with the 
 castle of Scaleby to him and the heirs male of his body, with the remainder to 
 Robert the second son of his daughter Isabel, in like manner and upon the same 
 condition that he should change his name to Tilliol. But Robert had not this will 
 to produce and so was forced to sit without the estate, which was enjoyed accord- 
 ing to the former pedigrees, nevertheless to keep on foot his pretentions he assumed 
 the name of Tilliol. There is yet extant an authentic instrument under the seal 
 of the Comissary General of York dated September 27, 14S1, (which I have in my 
 custody) which testifies that one William Martindale Knt, ,lid in the court of York 
 for the discharging of his conscience swear that he saw the will and that it pur- 
 ported an intail as aforesaid, and that he and others in the favour of Margaret 
 second daughter of the said Peter de Tilliol had destroyed it. Gilpin.

 The TylHolfs held (as their posterity now do), the said 
 castle and mannor of the crown by cornage all save a 
 carucat of land which is holden of the barony of Gilsland. 
 It containeth Scaleby, Houghton, and Etardby. 
 
 They were Lords of Solport which they held of Lyddall 
 and of Richardby in the barony of Linstock near Carliel, 
 which they hold of the Bishop of Carliel. At this 
 Richardby, Richard the Ryder their first ancestor seated 
 himself whereupon it was so called after his name. And 
 the gate port and street in Carliell leading thither is from 
 thence called Richardgate or Richardby gate, in old 
 evidences vicus Richardi. As in like sort the port and 
 street leading toward Bochardby (where the first inhabi- 
 tant called Bochardus had a place of dwelling) is called 
 Botchardgate, both within the port and without. And the 
 other gate Caldew Gate of the river Cawdey running by the 
 same. At that time the Scots did tyrannize over the 
 country next adjoyning them, which enforced the gentle- 
 men to dwell in Carliell, and therefore every man provided 
 himself to be served with corn, soyle, and hay, as nigh the 
 city as they might : as this Richard at Richardby, Bochard

 THE BARONY OF LYNSTOCK. 
 
 The Barony of Between the river Eden and Brunskeugh 
 Lynstock. Beck lyes the barony of Lynstock and 
 
 Crosby, which is now a seignory of the 
 Bishop of Carhell. King Hen. i^' gave Lynstock and 
 Carleton to one Walter his chaplain, to be holden of the 
 Kings of England by cornage silver to be paid yearly. 
 The said Walter voluntarily of himself and by the King's 
 licence, took upon him a religious habit of a regular canon 
 in the priory of St. Mary in Carliell, and by the King's 
 consent he gave Lynstock and Carleton to that house of 
 religion in pure alms for ever. Whereupon the King re- 
 leased and acquitted the rent and services to the canons 
 there and they made the said Walter their prior. He was 
 the second prior of that house of St. Mary at Carliell. 
 After they were possessed of Lynstock barony they made 
 a grange at Crosby which was therefore called Crosby, 
 because it was church lands, and sometimes the barony of 
 Lynstock is called Crosby which is now become a town of 
 many inhabitants. 
 
 At the first foundation of that house of canons by K. 
 Hen. i^* and of the Bishop's See at Carliell, both their 
 lands were holden pro indiviso as in common. And after 
 the first partition thereof made by the Pope's legate Gualo 
 Cardinal of St. Martin in King John's time, this barony 
 of Linstock fell to the Bishop and his successors, and 
 Carlton to the prior and convent and to the Bishops 
 remained still undivided untill Pandolph another legate in 
 K. Hen. 2^^^ time by the second distribution assigned them 
 the Bishops part of Carlton and other things in Cumber- 
 
LYNSTOCK. 157 
 
 land for their moiety of the appropriate church of Werk- 
 wurth in Northumberland. 
 
 The aforesaid Walter the prior and Athelwold the first 
 Bishop of that See were witnesses to the grant of confir- 
 mation of Holm Cultrum made to the abbot there by 
 Malcolumb son of Henry the Earl, son of David King of 
 Scots, which Malcolumb lived in the beginning of the 
 reign of K. Hen. 2"*^ and was king 12 years. 
 
 This barony contained Lynstock, Crosby, Walby, 
 Richardby, and Newby. Walby was so called of the 
 Picts Wall whereunto it adjoyneth. And Newby as a later 
 building, yet now it is an ancient town. For King Henry 
 !«' gave the same Newby to one Hildred to be holden of 
 the King by cornage, and one Trute succeeded Hildred, 
 and Richard son of Trute succeeded his father. In King 
 John's time one William son of Barnard, held that land as 
 guardian to Richard the son of Richard the son of Trute 
 aforesaid. Shortly after the said last Richard son of 
 Richard confirmed Newby to Reginald de Carliell and his 
 heirs, to be holden of him by paying los. yearly rent 
 service to him, and i6s. cornage and foreign service. The 
 said Reginald de Carliell gave the same to the abbot and 
 convent of Holm Cultrum, reserving the like rents. And 
 after the death of Richard son of Richard, his sister 
 Margaret wife of Robert de Warthampole daughter and 
 heir of Richard son of Richard son of Trute released her 
 right to the same Newby unto the monks of Holm Cultrum 
 saving the said rents reserved. Bishop Walter himself, 
 Thomas and Robert Cherry his successors acquitted the 
 abbot and his men there of all services except common 
 aids and los. rent due to the Lord of the fee. 
 
 Carghow. Carghow als. Carighow is a village on the 
 north-east side of the river Eden between Rowcliff and 
 Stainton. It was first a mannor and demesne, the inherit- 
 ance and possession of John de Lacy Constable of Chester, 
 who held the same of the King immediately by cornage. 
 
158 CARGHOW. 
 
 This John Lacy o^ranted the same and Cringledyke (a terri- 
 tory there to the same belonging) to William de Vescy and 
 his heirs Lord of Alnwick in Northumberland, and of Malton 
 in Yorkshire, to be holden of the donor and his heirs for a 
 mewed hawk yearly for all services. William Vescy gave 
 it to Ewon Karliell Knt, for lands in Yorkshire reserving to 
 him and his heirs the same services. And afterwards in the 
 second year of Edward i^' Robert de Ross Lord of Werk 
 in Tindal died seised thereof, he held the same of Sapience 
 the wife of William Carliell the younger, Reddendo a hawk 
 or a mark of money yearly ; and discharging the said 
 Sapience of foreign service viz., 23*^ de Cornagio ad Scac- 
 carium Carliolii. From this Robert Ross it descended by 
 many descents in the issue male untill the 32nd year of 
 Ed. 3'"''. And shortly after Elizabeth Ross the heir general 
 transferred the inheritance to the Parrs of Kendal with 
 other lands, in which house it descended by many descents 
 untill William Parr late Marquis of Northampton who 
 dying without issue the widow Dame Elen exchanged it 
 with Queen Elizabeth and took other lands for her jointure 
 so it rests now in the crown and in possession of the in- 
 habitants as customary tenents.

 NOTE TO INDEX. 
 
 This Index has no pretension to either completeness or perfection. 
 These pretensions could only be justified by a practical revision of 
 the whole ground work of the history of Cumberland. Such a task, 
 however inviting and even necessary, is one for which the present 
 compiler has neither the qualifications nor the leisure. An index, 
 moreover, is probably the form least suitable for the presentation to 
 the public of the results of such a revision. 
 
 In the course of my work I have often been met by difficult 
 questions as to the identity of persons of the same name appearing 
 in different parts of the ' Accompt.' It is a necessar}- result of the 
 modern method of indexing that such names should appear consecu- 
 tively in the first draft, leaving the question of identification for 
 subsequent consideration. In every case where there seemed reason- 
 able doubt I have entered two, or sometimes three, similar names one 
 after the other (adding dates where any were given), so that each 
 reader may arrive at a judgment for himself. 
 
 The mistakes of the 'Accompt' are, of course, reproduced in the 
 index. In some cases their character is hinted at by notes of inter- 
 rogation or other marks of doubtfulness. 
 
 It is to be observed however that a note of interrogation between 
 square brackets is frequently no more than a sign of uncertainty 
 which of two people of the same name is mentioned at the reference 
 immediately preceding it. 
 
 It maybe as well to add that where a place-name begins with 
 'Great,' 'Little,' 'Over,' 'Nether,' 'High,' 'Low,' or 'North,' 
 ' South,' ' East,' or ' West,' it will be found entered under the dis- 
 tinctive name. 
 
 The names of counties and of larger territorial divisions are not, 
 as a rule, indexed ; nor do the names of sovereigns appear in the index 
 when such names are only used to fix dates. 
 
 There is only one entry for each page, though a name may occur 
 several times in it. 
 
102 NOTE TO INDEX. 
 
 The names uf barunies and smaller territorial divisions are given 
 in large and small capitals respectively. The figures before the 
 colon and dash (: — ) shew in each case the amount of the book that 
 is appropriated to the description of the district named. The recur- 
 rences of the name in the course of that description (which are very 
 frequent) are not separately noted. The figures after the (: — ) relate 
 to other parts of the book. 
 
 Where a place name and a surname are identical in form, the 
 place name will usually be found entered before the surname. This 
 is contrary to the general rule of indexing, but proves the best for 
 this book. 
 
 Surnames between square brackets following the names of 
 women are their maiden surnames, save in one or two cases where 
 only the name of a penultimate, or ante-penultimate, husband is given 
 by Denton or his annotators. 
 
 Where the names of a man and a woman are connected by ' and' 
 they are husband and wife.
