4 Field Names on the Gorhambury Estates. THE subjoined catalogue of names of manors, customary holdings, farms, localities, lanes, inns, and fields is derived from the various deeds, court-rolls, surveys, &c., many thousands in number, which have gradually accumulated at Gorhambury, and which carry the history of the several properties down to the beginning of the nineteenth century. Surveys of the Estates were made from time to time, the fullest and most accurate being that of , enlarged later, as other properties were added. This Survey is illustrated by a large Estate Map, upon which the farms and fields are indicated according to the names by which they were then known. It will be seen that already by that time many of the older names had been forgotten, and I think it will be found that not a few names then in use have since passed out of memory. It might perhaps be possible, by reference to such deeds as describe the exact position of each field, to construct some kind of historical Atlas of the Estates from the time of Queen Elizabeth, but I have made no attempt to undertake this difficult task, and have been content to record, and that not in all cases, the names of the Manors and of the Customary Estates or Farms to which at various dates the several fields were attached. MANORS. The chief Hertfordshire Manors which have been in possession of the Grimston family since 1652 or later are Gorhambury, Westwick and Pray, Market Oak, Redbourne and Redbourne Bury, St. Amphiballs, Kingsbury, Sopwell and Sopwell Bury, and Windridge, but there are also deeds relating to the Manors, former or reputed Manors, and parts of the Manors of Agnells, Beamond, Burston, Butlers, Herons, Newlands, Parke, and Playdells, some of which still remain, or are represented by farms or fields included in the Estates. It seems likely that in certain cases the boundaries of Manors have varied, and there is record in the courtrolls of at least one tenement as to which the jury of the manor-court could not decide to which Manor it belonged. 3

5 The overshadowing landholder of the district before the Reformation was the great Abbey of St. Albans, at whose dissolution it would appear that very many courtrolls and other deeds were lost sight of. As most of the properties above named were connected, directly or indirectly, with that House, there is not very much left from pre-reformation times by which to trace the descent of customary tenures and fields from an early period, and therefore it is extremely difficult to determine the original forms of their names. Fortunately, however, a list of such names, probably derived from courtrolls, was compiled in 1597 for the " Manors of Gorhambury, Westwick, and Praye," and this traces a few names back to 2. Edward I, A useful Survey of the Estates, recording many names, was made in 1569, and others again later, and for the Manor of Redbourne there is a full copy of Admissions for the greater part of the reigns of Henry VIII and James I, omitting that of Elizabeth. For Westwick there are some, and for Windridge there are many pre-reformation Court- Rolls. MESSUAGES. Apart from the Manors, the various Farms and other Messuages, excluding Inns, appear under no less than 146 names, but it is evident that many of these were applied to the same properties at different times, although in many or perhaps in most cases it seems impossible to trace the changes of name, and the more so since fields (which have also changed their names) were sometimes attached to one farm or holding and sometimes to another. The difficulty of tracing customary tenures or farms through their various changes may be illustrated by a single instance : Beaufitzlond is mentioned as a messuage and 82 acres in 1519, but not again, though we hear of Beaufitz Mede, ''between Carters Medes and the river," in and The 82 acres in 1519 appear to have included Alrads Croft, Colefolysdell formerly Carters, Goldweyer Toft, Pokys or Pokes Croft, Two Radyscrofts, and the Waley, none of which can really be traced later, and also Carters lond, Cutts mede, Depewell Croft, Dunnings field, Lezlond, Lynkthorne and Lynkthorne Lane, Marie Croft, Over Orients, Over and Nethyr Orients Crofts, Pettams field, and Walmstede, which it 4

6 is possible to trace. Taking these latter holdings in order, we find that: Carters lond may have become Carters Crofts, held with Wrights Farm, * Cutts mede was probably Cuts Deane at Beson End, 1617, then Middle and Further Deardons, formerly Cutts Deane, 1717, and lastly Hither, Middle, and Further Deerings, held with Beson End Farm, Depewell Croft was presumably Depwell (17 ac.), held with Southes, 1532, and Great and Little Deepwell (17 ac.), with South End Farm, Dunnings field probably became two closes called Dunnings (27 ac.), in 1614, and then respectively Dunnings fields (9 ac.), held with Deane End Farm, 1719, and Deaneing or Dunnings field (15 ac.), 1700, and later Great and Little Dunnings (9 ac. and 53/4ac.), held with Copt Hall Farm, Lezlond became Levesland, ac., 1640, and afterwards Leavesland (4 ac.), held with. Copt Hall Farm, Lynkthorne and Lynkthorne Lane became Lincolne Ashe, 1617, and Lincolnes or Linckhorne Ashe Lane, The former was Lincoln Ash Close alias Great Bradley (301/4ac.), in 1673, and was apparently held partly with Redbourne Bury, , and partly with Beaumont Hall Farm, Marie Croft (10 ac.) was held with Breakspeares, 1597, but was separated therefrom, and as Marie alias Marke Croft (10 ac.) was surrendered in 1771 to Vt. Grimston. Over Orients, &c., became Orients Closes, 1618, and Orient alias Norient Closes, 1678, at Wood End. Pettam field seems to have been Pittens field, held with Deane End Farm, 1617, and Pitkins alias Pitings, Walmstede became Wamstead, held with Deane End Farm, 1617, and Wampfield alias Wampsted, Thus it would seem that Beaufitzlond was divided between Beson End, Beaumont Hall, Breakspeares, Redbourne Bury, Deane End, South End, and Wrights Farms, with possibly others. The shifting of fields was 5

7 so complete that who shall say what now represents Beaufitzlond? As a general rule, not without exceptions, one may say that thefarms, originally customary tenures or yeoman estates, were named from their holders, which was probably the reason why their names were so often changed. In cases such as Breakspeares, where an early holder had left his mark almost indelibly imprinted, the name remained, but in others, when a family went out its name often went out too. Some of the Farms, though within the Lord's Manor, merely owed him customary rents and services, and some were enfranchised or sold, so that of those in the catalogue not all were the immediate and actual property of the Grimston family. LANES AND INNS. In the Catalogue appear the names of no less than sixty-three Lanes, but as it is evident that there never could have been so many at one time within or contiguous to these estates, we may infer that they also, like the Farms, have been frequently re-named. That this was so is in fact shewn by instances such as that of Copt Hall Lane, which in 1585 and 1597 was spoken of as Batchwood Lane alias St. John's Lane, and in 1614 as Batchwood Lane alias Copthall Lane. There are also thirty-three names of Inns, to which the same remark applies, and it is also possible that some of these were not really Inns at all, since in early times shops and other establishments often bore signs equivalent to those of hostelries. Few of the Inn names are of special interest, but we may note that the George, in Redbourne and Kingsbury respectively, and the White Horse in Redbourne, were named long before the accession of the first Hanoverian King, whom frequently they commemorate. The Rose and Crown in Kingsbury, perhaps originally named from the first of the Tudors, lost its Crown with the King, and became merely the Rose during the Interregnum. The White Hart was the sign of King Richard II. One might have expected some reference to the Bacon or Grimston Arms, but I have not noticed this in the records. COMMON FIELDS. Many names of fields were derived from natural features, and some represent portions of the Common Fields which existed befor- the enclosures, but I think 6

8 it will be conceded that the majority were named from early holders, and probably in several cases from those who first enclosed them. It is scarcely practicable now to compile an accurate list of the original Common Fields, for it will be remembered that what are usually spoken of as the Old Enclosures date largely from soon after , when the Black Death had made labour so scarce that hedges were planted to prevent cattle from straying, thus giving to England one of its most characteristic and most beautiful features. Probably such enclosures were gradually increased in number and enlarged, so that as time passed the nominal acreage of customary holdings (which e.g. in Windridge seems to have often been 60 acres in ) became greater, and the quantity of common or unenclosed land became less. The distribution of monasterial lands also tended to multiply holders and their tenements, and perhaps as the result of improved methods of farming, such as the introduction of winter roots early in the seventeenth century, there was an increasing tendency to divide the already enclosed fields, as is shewn by the frequent occurrence of such epithets as Great and Little, Hither and Further, Upper and Lower, in the names of fields. In consequence o f these changes the physical condition of the Manors before the Black Death, and indeed before the accession of Queen Elizabeth, is hard to determine, but two things are fairly certain, viz., that many woods or woody grounds have been ploughed up, and that there were Common Fields. The latter point is evident from such expressions as " Lands in Campysfield, 1516," or "Five Acres in Shrewfield, 1560," implying that other tenants also held strips or parcels of land in these. Five very large fields or common lands are named in , and these, as also in all probability others of smaller size, we may regard as at that time unenclosed. Birnorth. 105 ac Not traced later. Brokefields. 170 ac Represented by Brookfields (42 ac.), held by Maynes and the Praye, Kingsbury Meade. 100 ac Represented by Kingsbury Great and Little Fields (together 501/2ac.), Newberie. 180 ac Represented by Newberry Woods (111/4ac.), and "Newberry field now Hagdell "(153/4ac.),

" Lands in Rowdell Common, 1631, 1682 in Rowdell field, 1647." Sears Common. Of M. Herons, 1789, Waterdell. Of M. Windridge. "Lands in Waterdell, " FIELD NAMES. Interesting questions are raised by careful study of the field names of any district in this country. To some extent they reveal to us the racial origin of those who first gave them to the land. Thus, all over England, except perhaps in the extreme West and South-West, few Celtic names other than those of mountains and rivers are to be found clear evidence that the Celtic inhabitants were submerged or driven out. On the other hand Cumbria, chiefly colonised by Anglians or Norse, is the home of Riggs and Thwaites; Lincolnshire, a land of Danish immigrants, has Kirks and Becks, and village names ending in By; whilst Sussex, peopled by Saxons, has Denes and Hams. In my catalogue of over 1100 names there are no Riggs, Thwaites, or Kirks, and the only Beckfield was formerly Bekkesfield, from a Bekkes family. There are, on the other hand, many Denes and Hams, and we also find not a few Saxon personal names, such as Aylwin, imbedded in those of their lands. Naturally we infer that the estates were colonised, after the expulsion of the Celts, chiefly by men of Saxon race. In making a short and somewhat hasty abstract of more than eight thousand documents it is likely that many place names have escaped notice, whilst the comparative modernity of the deeds makes it difficult to conjecture what may have been the original form of many names that were recorded. Moreover, in days when professional scribes were almost the only writers they not seldom misunderstood the spoken words of their clients, whilst later clerks, not excluding the present writer, did not always correctly copy such deeds as lay before them. These difficulties may be illustrated bv two instances :

11 Battlefield sounds as if it had been the scene of one of the two battles of St. Albans, especially as the name appears in the records later than the Wars of the Roses. But it was first written Bettlespole, and then from 1519 Batispole, Betylpole, Bettell Poole, Batespoole, Battlepoole, and Battlespoone, down to Battlefield in Battlespoone, , is clearly an error of the copyist; but was the place a pool of water-beetles, or was it really the scene of a battle? Crakabone Farm too has sometimes been thought to have had a warlike origin. We hear of the name first as Crakbonys, 1497, and then in 1519 we have " a messuage and farm called Crakebones," and it may not be without significance that in Essex we find Crakeborne and Crackbone as surnames in 1462 and 1513 respectively. It is at least likely that the farm took its name from a man with this somewhat peculiar cognomen. In the Catalogue I have rarely pointed out, or hazarded a guess as to the origin of names, but as a rule have left them to tell their own story by giving their variations in chronological order. Where I have noticed the mention of persons or families from whom they might have been derived, I have sometimes added these in brackets. Among the whole number I regard about fifty as distinctly difficult. Others are amusing in their simplicity when traced. Here are a few, taken almost at random, whose origin would scarcely be guessed were it not for the chronological statement of their variations : Batchwood, formerly Batchworth Wood, a name dating from Blushes Croft, from Blissard or Blisse family. Bowel Mead, formerly Beywell or Boywell Mead. Bowl Lands, possibly with the same origin, or the smaller portions were Bowling Greens. Cardinals, from Cardinal Wolsey. Catsheads, originally Catishegge, Catt's Hedge. Childhurst, varying to Childishe, Chyldsfyst, and Cherry Hurst. Devils Ditch, credited to the Enemy of Mankind after the Reformation. Edbeech, with variations, Notbeach, Knotbeech, and Snottbeach. Effernes, varying from Uffern to Iffrons. Gallows Field, shewing that the lord had right of gallows. 10

12 Hangman's Croft, formerly Hanging (perhaps steep) Croft. Heathens Close, originally Heath Hemes. Hobbs Hodge, from a nickname of Robert Blythwood. Lady End, from Lay Dene. Lanham Fields, once Lane End fields. Lines Croft, apparently from John Lyons. Maiden Crouch = St. Mary's Cross, cf. the Potters Crouch. Market Oak, from Markyate. Mary's Field, once Marehegge (hedge). Molliners Grove, from Thos. Molyners or Molyneux. Musgrove, from Morrys Grove. Precious Field, originally Price's Piece. Press Fields, formerly Priest Fields. Sawyers Hill, apparently from Sare family. Searches, and perhaps Sage Hill, from Sarich family. Stellacre, probably once Stile acre. Woman's Croft, originally Wodeman's Croft. GENEALOGY. Though taking great interest in this subject, my examination of the Gorhambury deeds was not undertaken with this in view, and the brief notices in the Catalogue throw but little light upon the descent of families. More will be found in my short abstract of the documents, which covering perhaps 1000 pages of quarto MS., are left at Gorhambury, but in order to extract all the information that is contained in the deeds, it would be necessary to make a careful examination of such as bear upon the question. 11
