MAIDENCOURT (Meidencote, xii cent.; Maydencot, xiii cent.; Maydencotte, xvii cent.) is not mentioned by name in the Domesday Survey, but must have been included in East Garston (q.v.), for it was subject to Geoffrey de Mandeville's grant of tithes in all his lands to Hurley Priory. Before the end of the 12th century the overlordship passed to the Earls Marshal, of whom the manor continued to be held till the 14th century. View of frankpledge here was subsequently attached to the manor of Benham Valence.
