Five hides in MACKNEY formed part of Eadred's grant to Ethelgeard in 948, and before the Conquest the entire area of Mackney, together with the rest of Brightwell, belonged to the bishopric of Winchester. It is not named in the Domesday Survey, being part of the bishop's manor, and his overlordship was recognized in the time of Henry III and of Edward II, though he quarrelled with his tenants both in 1197 and in 1292. In 1350 Mackney is first called a manor.
