Previous Lords:
John de Burdelys, the first tenant of this manor of whom mention has been found, was holding land in this parish in 1278. He died in 1283, when his son Geoffrey, then twenty-one years of age, acquired possession of the manor. He was followed before 1321 by his son John de Burdelys, whose widow some time previous to 1346 married Robert Hotot, and who died at that date, leaving the manor to her son by her first husband John de Burdelys. He was then a minor and died the following year, when a partition of all his property took place between his sisters and co-heirs Elizabeth wife of Thomas Marshall and Joan wife of Gilbert atte Chamber. To the latter was assigned Stagsden Manor, and in 1362 she together with her husband alienated it to Edmund Bosom. In 1497 Eleanor Coly transferred this manor together with Bosoms to John Mordaunt and others, and, though not again found mentioned individually by name, it became absorbed in and followed the same descent as Bosoms and other manors which he owned in this parish.
