Previous Lords:
A second holding, which seems to have represented Eastbury proper, was in the possession of Matthew de Moretain in 1086, when it was extended at 4 hides. It appears to have belonged to Geoffrey le Moyne in 1163, and was subsequently held of his family. This overlordship belonged in 1374 to William Hoo. In the early 13th century Elias de Hinton held a carucate of land in Eastbury. He seems to have had a son Henry, whose ultimate heirs were his four sisters. Their shares were released to Richard de Hinton. In about 1230 Henry de Hinton held three parts of a knight's fee of William le Moyne, and in 1254 his son Henry was tenant here. In 1305 John de Broughton and William de Hinton conveyed this fee to Thomas de Abberbury. It was purchased before 1311 by William de Wanting and was so united to the principal manor.
