There is no reference to WHIPSNADE MANOR in Domesday, but the whole parish was probably included in that of Eaton Bray (then assessed at the excessive rate of 12½ hides), to which it is subsequently found attached. The first mention which has been found of Whipsnade in this connexion occurs in the Testa de Nevill, when William de Cantlowe held it as a member of Eaton Bray. (fn. 3) The manor has since followed the same descent as that of Eaton Bray (q.v.), and it is at present the property of Mr. John Macnamara. (fn. 4)
