Previous Lords:
The overlordship of BARTON was vested in the crown at the date of Domesday Survey and so remained until the Dissolution when the manor itself was taken into the hand of the king and annexed to the manor of Ampthill in 1542, being afterwards leased for short periods only; the rights of overlordship must have lapsed after 1628 as there is no further mention of them.
