Previous Lords:
At the time of the Domesday Survey the manor of POTSGROVE, comprising 7½ hides, was held of the king by Gozelin le Breton, who was preceded in the time of King Edward by four thegns. From the middle of the 13th century the honour of Gloucester appears as intermediary between the lords of Potsgrove Manor and the Crown. Potsgrove, like Biddenham, remained attached to this honour until the death of Humphrey Duke of Buckingham in 1460.
