Here was a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary, standing by itself
in the churchyard, at the east end of the chancel, the ruins of which
may still be seen. William Lynster, alias Bocher, by his will
proved May 7, 1493, ordered his body to be buried in the chapel of
the blessed Virgin Mary at Tibenham; he gave a messuage and lands
to the parish church of All-Saints here, ordering the church-wardens
to apply the neat profit to repair and adorn the church for ever: he
gave also, nine acres of freehold, lying at Mil-hill and Rowe-Bushes,
for the constables to receive the rent, and with the neat yearly profit
thereof, to pay the King's fifteenths for the poorer sort of people; and
when there are no fifteenths, then the church-wardens are to receive
it, and repair and beautify the church with it. His house and land,
which he bought of William Wothorpe, if the brothers and sisters of
the gilds of St. Thomas and St. Mary will buy them, they to have
them 10l. cheaper than any one else, and their own time of payment;
if they settle it on a priest to pray for the brethren and sisters of the
gilds. (Reg. Hyrning, fo. 136.)
There were three gilds here, the brethren and sisters of which,
had one common gild-hall, (fn. 4) since turned into a school-house; viz. the
gild of All-Saints, held in the nave of the church; that of St. Thomas
the Martyr, held in St. Nicholas's chapel at the east end of the south
isle; and that of the Virgin Mary, held in her chapel in the churchyard. These gilds had divers lands here, which at their dissolution
were seized by the Crown, where they continued till 1609, and then
King James I. granted them to John Eldred, Esq; and Joan Verdon,
gentlewoman, and their heirs. The furniture of the gild-hall re
mained till 1650, when the hall was ruined; for then the officers sold
30lb. of pewter, 92lb. of lead, four spits that weighed 169lb. a metal pot
that weighed 44lb. two pots of brass of 89lb. and a brass pan of 9lb. A
plain proof of the jolly doings at these gilds! But, as the poor of the
parish always were partakers with them, I much question whether their
revenues were not better spent then, than they have been, since they
were rapaciously seized from the parishes, to which they of right belonged.
In 1652, the town lands to beautify and repair the church, were
let at above 28l. per annum.
In 1506, John Blomefield of Norwich, Gent. bequeathed to the
paving of St. Nicholas's chapel in Tibenham church, a thousand paving
tiles, or money to the value. (Regr. Rix, fo. 449.)

1503, John Avelyn was instituted: he lies buried here, with this on
a brass plate preserved by Mr. Weever, fo. 814:
Orate pro anima Johannis Avelyn quondam Uic

In 1505, Jacob Glover succeeded him, and is buried here; the aforesaid author hath preserved his inscription also:
Orate pro anima Jacobi Blober, quondam Aicacii isttus Euclesti,
cuius anime propicieure deus. Amen.
He died in 1525, for then
Peter Paine succeeded him, at whose death in
1535, George Plate was the last presented by the Prior of Horsham.
In 1554, Plate being deprived, and a pension assigned him, Sir Ric,
Southwell, Knt. by lease from the Crown, of the impropriation and
advowson of the vicarage, gave it to
Peter Walker; and in
1558, to John Seaman, who held it with Flordon. (See p. 73.)
1596, Anthony Locke, A. M. the Queen. (fn. 7) He was buried Oct.
1641, and Elizabeth his wife, remarried to Robert Green, Gent. and

On his stone are Lock's arms, and crest of an eagle volant or.
1641, Abel Hodges, who held it united to Tharston.
1720, Will. Herring, LL. B. united to Intwood, at whose resignation,
The Rev. Mr. Philip Carver, the present vicar, had it of the gift of
the Bishop of Ely, and holds it united to Besthorp, as at vol. i. p. 492.
In 1227, it was a rectory, for Ric. le Chaum then granted two parts
of the advowson, to Augustine, Prior of St. Faith at Horsham, who
had the other third part before, in right of their lands here; (fn. 8) and the
church was appropriated and confirmed to them by John of Oxford
Bishop of Norwich, according to an agreement made in the time of
William his predecessor, saving a sufficient maintenance to the vicar:
And in 1428, the prior was taxed for his spiritualities at 23 marks, and
his temporals paid 12d. to each tenth. At the Dissolution, their temporals as well as spirituals, vested in the Crown, and in 1610, were
granted by James I. to George Salter and John Williams, by the name
of the revenues and lands late of St. Faith's Priory; viz. the tenement
called the Priory-house, and yard, and 32 acres of land; and a tenement and 11 acres of land called Annables; and the tithe wood and
hay, (fn. 9) of the rectory of Tibenham aforesaid, late in the tenure of Thomas Baker, and now in the tenure of Nic. Herne, Esq. of the yearly
value of 44s.
As the impropriation consists of all the great, so doth the vicarage of
all the small, tithes, except the tithe wood and hay aforesaid. (fn. 10) It now
stands in the King's Books at 7l. 6s. 8d. When Domesday was made,
the vicar had a house and half an acre of land, and the vicarage was
valued at five, and after at six marks, but was not taxed; it paid 3s. 8d.
synodals and procurations, 22d. Peter-pence, and 2d. ob. carvage; and
the village paid 4l. 15s. 11d. clear to every tenth The Prior of Westacre was taxed at 6l. 13s. 5d. for his temporals here. The Prior of
Castle-Acre at half a mark for his spirituals, which were two parts out
of three, of the tithes of the demean lands of the manors of Robert de
Bosevile here, which the said Robert confirmed to the monastery, as
his ancestors had formerly granted them. (fn. 11) The portion of the monastery of Sees (in Mendham) was 6s. The portion of the Prior of St.
Olave in spirituals (being taxed at half a mark) was for two parts of
the tithes of their demeans here, valued at two marks: and the portion of the Abbot of St. Bennet in the Holm was one mark, and was
for two parts of the tithes of his demeans here. The Prior of Bukenham had temporals also in this parish taxed at 25s. And it is said,
there was a chapel at Tibenham Old-hall, which belonged to, and was
served by, the canons of that house; but I have not met with any certain account of it.
Tibenham-Hall,
Alias Orrebys, Tatersales, &c. cum Carleton, &c.
(For it hath gone by the several names of its owners,) is the capital
manor, and belonged to Alric, a thane of King Edward the Confessor, and had then three carucates of land belonging to it, two in demean, and one in the tenants hands; who had liberty to sell their
lands, if they first offered them to sale to their lord, and he refused
them. The King and Earl had then the lete, and all superiour jurisdiction: (fn. 12) and at the Conqueror's survey, it was owned by Eudo son of
Spiruwin, (fn. 13) the founder of the Tateshale family; in which it continued,
till it was joined to Bukenham-castle, and passed exactly as that castle
did, (fn. 14) through the Tateshales, Orrebys, Cliftons, Knevets, &c. till it was
sold by the Harveys, to Mr. Shaw of Besthorp, (fn. 15) whose daughter and
heiress married to the Lord Biron, who now owns it.
In 1257, Sir Rob. de Tateshale had a charter for free-warren in this
manor, from K. Hen. III. which was afterwards confirmed to Constantine de Clifton, his heir, by King Ric. II. in 1274, assise of bread
and ale over all his tenants in Tibenham and Carleton, was allowed
him by Edw. I. In 1285, all these privileges were allowed in eire,
with weyf, and a timberel.
In 1272, it was found that this manor was held in capite of the King
by barony, of which John de Ingham held a fee in Ingham and Worsted, and Margery de Creik half a fee in Westhorp, and another half
fee in Hillington. He also held Shelly manor in Suffolk, of this barony of Tibenham.
In 1649, Philip Knevet, Baronet, had it valued, and the free quitrents, &c. were 20l. site of the hall, &c. 93l. 15s. per annum. The
hall stands a quarter of a mile north-west of the church.
Abbot's Manor,
Was given before the Conquest by Lefwald, a Saxon, to the abbey
of St. Bennet at the Holm in Norfolk; and at the Conquest was worth
20s. a year. (fn. 16) In 1218, the abbot, by fine in the King's court, conveyed
to Osbert de Dagworth, a messuage and 140 acres of land, and divers
rents in Tibenham; and in 1249, Adam Fitzwalter released to the Abbot
of Holm, a messuage and carucate of land in Tibenham for ever; and
in 1326, Roland, then parson of East-Bradenham, gave to the abbot
13 acres of land and 20 acres of wood, parcel of the manor of Tibenham, and then the rents of assise were 22s. 4d. ob. a year; and there
was a manor-house, and 136 acres of arable land worth 3d, an acre;
two acres of meadow worth 2s. and 20 acres of wood; for all which
temporals, the about was taxed in 1428, at 4l. 7s. 4d. ob. The whole
revenues went with the abbey of Holm, to the Bishop of Norwich,
whose lessee now hath it, and is valued as at p. 540, vol. iv.
Dagworth's Manor
Was part of the Abbot's manor granted as above, to Osbert de Dagworth, who recovered it in the King's court against the abbot, by
proving that his father, and Osbert son of Hervi de Dagworth, his
grand-father, was seized thereof by grant of Abbot Thomas; and then
the said Osbert gave it to the monastery of St. Olave's at Herringfleet
in Suffolk; and the prior of that house paid 7s. 1d. tax for it in 1428.
In 1392, Ric. II. licensed Rog. Rogers to grant 50 acres of land here,
to Herringfleet convent. At the Dissolution, this manor of Tibenham
was given by King Hen. VIII. to Henry Jerningham, and it after came
to the Lord Burgavenny.
The Manor of Tibenham, Hastyngs, or Longrowe,
Belonged to the Abbot of St. Edmund's Bury, and was held of him
by Ricuard, (fn. 17) being raised from 40, to 60s. value. At the Conqueror's
survey, the village was a league and an half long, and one league broad,
and paid 18d. geld or tax; (fn. 18) and it passed as Hastyngs's manor in
Gissing, which see at vol. i. p. 168, &c. (fn. 19) In 1272, John de Hastyngs,
senior, held it of the Abbot of Bury, by the service of half a fee, and
2s. 7d. per annum rent, for castle-guard to Norwich castle. In 1374,
John Hastyngs Earl of Pembrook died seized of Tibenham-Rowes and
Winfarthing, of which manor it was held, and constantly attended it,
as at. p. 187, 8, vol. i. &c. for some time. In 1401, Will. Beauchamp
had it; and in 1445, Joan, widow of Will. Beauchamp, Knt. Lord of
Bergavenny, died seized thereof, having held it in dower of the inheritance of Elizabeth her grandaughter; wife of Sir Edward Nevile, Knt.
Lord Abergavenny, as parcel of the inheritance of Hastyngs Earl of
Pembrook. In 1475, Edward Nevile Lord Bergavenny died seized;
and in 1570, it was in the hands of the Lord Bergavenny.
Channons, or Chaneux's manor,
Was so called from the Chauns or Chains, the ancient lords
thereof. In the Conqueror's time it was parcel of Forncet manor, and
belonged to Roger Bigot, as at p. 187, 214, &c. and in 1198, it was
Adam Fitz-Robert's afterwards the Fitz-Walters, (fn. 20) of whom Henry de
Crostweyt held it at one fee. In 1200, Ralf de Chaum, Cham, or Caam,
held it at one fee; in 1227, Ric. le Cham, who sold two parts of the advowson, as before mentioned. In 1303, it was found that William de Morbun and John le Wales or Wallis, had the manor late Tho. de Chaun's,
which then contained 30 messuages, four carucates of land, two acres
of meadow, 20 acres of pasture, 80 acres of wood, a windmill, and 60s.
per annum rent, in Tibenham, Aslacton, Multon, and the towns adjacent. In 1312, the heirs of Robert de Chaum had it, and William de
Morburne, parson of Suffield, settled it on Tho. Bacun of Baconesthorp,
and Elizabeth his wife, it being then held by Elizabeth, widow of William de Colney, for life, remainder to Eliz. wife of Tho. Bacun, and her
heirs. In 1319 Roger son of Tho. Bacon of Baconesthorp, settled it on
Godfry de Rokele and Eliz. his wife for their lives, with remainder to
his right heirs; and in 1334, it was settled after the death of Eliz.
widow of Will de Colney, by Roger de Bacon, on Thomas Bacon, his
son, and Joan his wife, in tail; in 1401, John Bacon had it, who died
at Baconesthorp in 1460, being son of Sir Roger Bacon, Knt. In 1426,
John Bacon of Lodne, Esq. son of the said John Bacon, on his marriage with Margaret daughter of Robert Banyard of Spectishale in
Suffolk, if he survived his father, had the united manors of Hackford, Chaun's or Chaneux, and Westhall in Tibenham, settled
on them and their heirs; and he inherited them; and dying in 1462,
gave them to his wife Margaret for life, with view of frankpledge,
&c. belonging to them. In 1477, John Bacon of Baconesthorp, Esq;
was lord of Chaneux, Westhall, and Hackford, alias Tibenham-Bacons:
It descended to the coheirs of Thomas Bacon, and the last of that family, Anne, married to Robert Garnish of Kenton in Suffolk; and
Elizabeth, to Sir John Glemham, Knt. who inherited the whole, by release from Anne and Rob. Garnish; and in 1513, John Glemham,
Esq. and Eliz. his wife, settled them in trust, on Charles Brandon
Viscount L'isle, Sir Rob. Brandon, Knt. Chris. Willoughby, Esq.
Humfry Wingfield, Esq. and Chris. Jenney, Esq. with the manors of
Over-Petistre, Chesteyn, Ketleburgh, Fornham, and Tunstall, in Suffolk; with 20 messuages, &c. in Great and Little-Glemham, &c. 30
messuages, 1800 acres of land, and 12l. rent in Tibenham and Old-Bukenham. In 1537, Sir John Glemham, Knt. died seized, and left
Christopher his son and heir 26 years old; he died 18 Oct. 1549, and
left them all to Tho. Glemham, Esq. his son and heir, who was also
cousin and heir to Charles Brandon Duke of Suffolk. After this I find,
Christiana Glemham had these manors of Chanons, Westhall, Hackford,
and Seckford in Tibenham, and paid for Ward to Norwich castle every
30 weeks, 2s. 4d. and before the year 1567, I find them in the hands of
Robert Buxton, Gent. who died seized of them, and North or
Great Glemham manor in Suffolk, June 5, 1621, leaving, Robert his
son and heir, 19 years old: this Robert, was grandson to Robert Buxton who was buried in the church of Tibenham in 1528, being son of
John Buxton, Gent. by Margaret Warner his wife, who was buried
here in 1572. In 1655, John Buxton of Chanons was lord, and was
buried here in 1660, leaving by Margaret Pert his wife, one of the
heiresses of Thomas Conyers of East-Barnet in Hertfordshire, Esq.
four sons, Robert, John, William, and Henry, and Isabell,
who married to Mr. Acton of Bramford in Suffolk; and Eliz. to Mr.
Thruston of Hoxne; John Buxton, the second son, lived at St. Margaret's in Suffolk, and by his wife, who was heiress to Mr. Proctor of
Burston, he had three sons, Robert, John, and Thomas, who was
educated at Cambridge. (See vol. i. p. 158.)
William, the third son, married Bridget, daughter of Robert Jermy of Bayfield, Esq. and had John Buxton, who died at Dereham in
1699; and Will. Buxton.
Henry Buxton, the fourth son, was unmarried in 1699.
Robert Buxton of Chanons, the eldest son, married Hannah
daughter of Robert Wilton, Esq. of Topcroft and Wilby, (see p.
364, 5, vol. i.) and was buried at Tibenham; John Buxton, his eldest
son, dying unmarried at Orleans in France, where he was buried,
Robert Buxton, his second son, succeeded him, and married Eliz.
daughter of Leonard Gooch of Earsham in Norfolk; he was buried at
Rushford in 1691, and Eliz. Buxton was buried by him in 1730. (See
vol. i. p. 295.) His brother Charles was A. B. and fellow of Clare-hall
in Cambridge, and died in 1682, and was buried in St. Edward's church
there, being 22 years old. Margaret his sister married to Henry Kiddington of Hockham, as at p. 367, vol. i. and Hannah her sister was
then unmarried.
John Buxton, son of Robert Buxton and Eliz. Gooch, succeeded,
and was buried at Rushworth in 1731, as at p. 295, vol. i. leaving
these manors to Anne his wife, who is now owner of them for life, and
Robert Buxton, Esq. his son, who is now unmarried, is heir.
In 1570, Knevet and Buxton, in right of their manors here, were
chief lords of the commons. In 1742, the total of the quitrents of the
manors of Chanons, Westhall, Hackford, and Seckford, were 7l. 6s. 11d.
ob. per annum. The site of the manor of Chanons is now called
Chanons Hall, and is the seat of the Buxtons; it stands about a
mile south-east of the church, and is a good old regular building,
moated in.
The Manors of West-Hall, Hackford, and Seckford,
Called afterwards Bacon's manor, belonged to Roger Bigod's
manor of Forncet at the Conquest, as may be seen under Forncet at
p. 223, 4; and the several parts before their union belonged to different
families; West-hall was held by Ric. de Hadesco, by the 4th part
of a fee, in Ric. the First's time; and after that, was joined to Hackford's manor, which passed as Hackford's manor in West-Herling, as
you may see in vol. i. p. 300, and from thence to the Seckfords, as at
p. 301, and was by one of them sold to the Bacons, and joined to
Chanons manor as before mentioned.
The Manors of Skeyton-Hall, alias Whitwell's
and Launde's,
Are now joined to the manors of Bunwell, Carleton, and Tibenham
cum membris, the members of it being these two manors, as at p. 128
and 140.
Skeyton-Hall manor, alias Whitwell's, took its name from Sir
John de Skegeton, lord of it in Edward the First's time, as also of Skeyton-hall in Skeyton, from which village he took his name. In 1303,
Ralf de Skeyton was under age, and a ward of Sir Fulk Baynard, Knt.
of whom this manor was held, and Richer de Whitwell had it in 1261.
Launde's manor, in 1264, belonged to Richard Lemming of Tibenham, who forfeited it for rebelling against Hen. III. In 1278, Robert
de Bukenham had it, and in 1283, Will. de Cruce, de la Croyz, or at
Cross, owned it. In 1287, John de Tibenham had assise of bread and
ale, and weyf, allowed him here. In 1478, John Heydon of Baconesthorp, died seized, and from that time to this, they have passed as at
p. 140, Robert Buxton, Esq; being now lord.
Alan Earl of Richmond's manor of Carleton (fn. 21) extended hither; see
p. 128.
For Tibenham commons see vol. i. p. 350, 51. Fox's Martyrs,

Tibenham vicarage is valued in the King's Books at 6l. 16s. 8d. and
being sworn of the clear yearly value of 46l. it pays no first-fruits nor
tenths, and is capable of augmentation.
