There is no mention of MOGGERHANGER MANOR in Domesday, and it was apparently included in the 10 hides belonging to Adeliza wife of Hugh de Grentmeisnil in Chalton. The overlordship of Adeliza de Grentmeisnil in this manor passed later by marriage to Saer de Quincy Earl of Winchester. Margaret, his granddaughter and co-heir of Roger Earl of Winchester, carried it in marriage to William Ferrers Earl of Derby, from whom it passed to his younger son William Ferrers Lord de Groby. The last mention of the overlordship is found in 1488, when it was held by Thomas Marquess of Dorset, Lord de Groby.
