Previous Lords:
Ralph Toni's fee in Charlton followed the descent of his honour of Clifford, and belonged in the middle of the 13th century to Walter de Clifford and later to the Mortimers Earls of March. John de Pavilly held it of Walter de Clifford about 1240, and his family continued to hold it for some time. John de Pavilly was among the tenants of the vill in 1316, and William de Pavilly was returned as tenant of Roger de Mortimer in 1398 and of Edmund Earl of March in 1424. At both these dates, however, half a fee in Charlton was said to be held by John Earley and one fee by Robert Martyn. It seems likely that the Pavillys were not in fact in possession of their holding at that date, and that part of it had been acquired some time before by the lords of the principal manor of Charlton.
