Previous Lords:
Henry Hussey was holding this manor in the 12th century, and before 1169 granted a virgate of land here to Dureford Abbey, which he had founded. The manor passed to his son Henry, who confirmed his father's gift, and it followed the descent of the manor of South Standen (q.v.) until the latter was sold in 1867 by members of the Michell family to Major-General Dunn. Bagshot was retained by the Rev. Thomas Hungerford Michell, who left it to his sister Arabella Juliana; her executors sold it to Mr. Albert Irving Muntz, the present owner. The land given to the abbey of Dureford was granted in 1537 to Sir William Fitzwilliam, K.G., High Admiral of England.
