Warden Abbey acquired lands in Risinghoe, probably as appurtenant to their Puttenhoe Manor. A grant of free warren in the woods belonging to their GRANGE OF RISINGHOE was obtained by the abbot in 1252, and when the right was called into question in 1330 it was said to have been confirmed by Edward I. In 1291 the lands, rent, mill and meadows comprised in the grange were assessed at £6 8s. 1d., but, as it is not mentioned after this date, it was doubtless included in Puttenhoe Manor at the valuation of church lands in 1535 and so passed with it to the Gostwicks.
