A HISTORY OF SURREY

��Arundel, son of his sister Alice and Edmund, late Earl of Arundel. Richard accordingly inherited the manor, 18 a settlement being made in 1 349 on his younger son, Sir John de Arundel, in tail male. 19 Sir John perished at sea in 1379, ant ^ was succeeded by his son John, 10 who received during his minority an annual grant of 40 marks for his maintenance from Richard Earl of Arundel, ' being the amount of his farm for the manor of Bokeland, Surrey, in the king's hands by reason of the said minority.' " Eleanor widow of the first Sir John married Reginald Lord Cobham as her second husband, 2 * and he at his death in 1402-3 was seised of a third of the manor of Buckland in the right of his wife. 83 The major part of the manor continued to be held by the second Sir John de Arundel, and at his death passed to his son John, who became twelfth Earl of Arundel." The latter died in 1421." His widow Eleanor married Sir Richard Poynings, who was assessed for the manor in 1428 ;*" after his death she married Sir Walter Hungerford, and died in 1455, when William, her second son by the twelfth earl, inherited the manor." He had become fifteenth Earl of Arundel in 1438," and the manor appears to have re- mained in the hands of suc- ceeding earls until 1564. Henry Earl of Arundel settled the manor on his daughter Jane, who had married John Lord Lumley.** In 1 5 67 Lord Lumley and Jane conveyed the property to Herbert Pel- ham and Roger Dallender. 30

Pelham quitclaimed his right to Dallender in 1569," and the latter held until his death in 1599," when his son William inherited his lands, a settlement having been made in 1589 on the marriage of William with Margaret Leigh." William died in 1618, and his son Ralph succeeded him. 34 Ralph Dallender in 1654 joined with several other members of the family in a sale to George Browne, 36 who married a daughter of Sir Ambrose Browne of Betchworth. Ambrose and John Browne, sons of George, held the manor successively. 36 On the death without issue of John Browne in 1736 his estates passed to the family of his sister Philippa, who had married William Jordan of Gatwick ; their son Thomas Jordan died unmarried in 1750, when his sisters Elizabeth wife of William Beaumont and Philippa wife of John Sharp became his heirs." The manor of Buckland became the property of the former, Philippa and John Sharpe having released their claim to her in I753-* 3 From that time until the

��present the manor has been held by descendants of William and Elizabeth Beaumont, remaining usually in the younger branch of the family. 39 Mr. F. H. Beau- mont is at present lord of the manor.

��A mill in Buckland is recorded in the Domesday Survey, when its value was stated to be 6/. 40 It was probably identical with the mill in Hartswood, parcel of the manor of Buckland, of which later record is found (vide infra). In 1268 John de Wauton and his heirs received a grant of free warren in his demesne lands in Buckland and elsewhere. 41 Guy Ferre re- ceived a grant of free warren in his demesne lands of Buckland in 1291," nearly two years before the formal grant of the manor was made him by John de Wauton. In 1350 a complaint was made by the Earl of Arundel that his free chases and warrens at Buckland had been entered by trespassers who hunted and took away the deer, hares, rabbits, pheasants, and part- ridges. 4 * In 1390 it was found that the manor was charged with a payment of 2</. yearly, then due to Richard Chamberlayn, who was custodian of the warren there. 44

HJRTSfPOOD, lying in the ecclesiastical parish of Sidlow Bridge, originally formed part of the manor of Buckland. The name occurs early in the 1 3th century, when John de Wauton, lord of the manor of Buckland, granted to Robert de Harts- wood, for his homage and service, a field called Rudene lying between the mill of ' Herteswode' and a field called Pegesull. 45 There is no further mention of this mill, which apparently fell into dis- use. In 1379 Jhn de Arundel, lord of Buckland,, received licence to inclose his wood of ' Herteswode,' and to impark 360 acres of land adjacent thereto. 4 ' Aa extent of the manor of Buckland made in 1380 includes 100 acres of land there among the appurtenances. 47 Hartswood remained part of the manor until 1569, when it seems to have been conveyed by Roger Dal- lender, as lands in the parish of Buckland, including 300 acres of wood, to John Skinner 4S ; the latter died in 1583-4 seised of the manor, park, and demesnes of
