A certain manor or capital messuage here, called COVENTRIES MANOR, which was held of the manor of Westcourt, was held at the time of his death in 1493 by Richard Choke of Avington (q.v.), who had married Alice daughter of Robert Coverntre. The manor followed the descent of Avington until 1653, when Coventries Manor was sold by Francis Choke and Anne his wife and John Vaughan and Mary his wife to Robert Burdett. Robert Burdett and others conveyed this estate in 1681 to John Eyles and William Kiston, and nothing further has been found relating to this property until 1805, when it belonged to John Barns. Another John Barns sold it about 1840 to the Marquess of Ailesbury.
