TULLWICK (Tollewyke, xiv cent.) was a holding within the manor of Wantage, called a manor from the 16th century. The family of Carew, of Beddington, Surrey, had land here in the reign of Edward III, held of Fulk Fitz Warin. In 1374 Thomas de Seyntmanyfeu quitclaimed to Nicholas de Carew lands and tenements in Tullwick which his father John had had of the gift of John de Carew. In the same year nine messuages, a carucate of land and rent in Charlton and Tullwick were quitclaimed to Nicholas by Joan wife of John de Mulsho. Nicholas Carew died in 1390, leaving a son and heir Nicholas. The latter enfeoffed John Gaynesford of his land in Wantage in trust for Isabel his daughter for life, with reversion to his granddaughter Joan, daughter of Thomas Carew and wife of William Saunder. On the death of Isabel Joan sued the feoffee for these lands, and he was ordered to make estate to her. In 1503 Richard Saunder and Margery his wife conveyed the manor of Tullwick to John Yate of Lyford, with a warrant against the heirs of Margery. John Yate's heirs continued to hold the manor, which passed with Buckland (q.v.) to the elder branch of the family. On the death of the last Sir John Yate in 1690 it came into the hands of Sir Robert Throckmorton, whose son Sir Robert cut off the entail on the estate in 1724. Nine years later he sold it to trustees under the will of Ann Holworthy, who had directed that lands within 50 miles of London should be purchased for the use of Daniel Holworthy and his heirs male. Daniel Holworthy and his son Daniel were in possession in 1742, and Daniel Holworthy, jun., conveyed the manor to James Hawley in the next year. Nothing is heard of the manor between that date and 1779, when it belonged to John Earl Spencer.
