LIST 17 PREBENDARIES OF HAMPTON

PREBEND

In 1086 the manor of Hampton was held by the church of Hereford in demesne (DB I 182b). The preb. of Hampton had been established before the mid 13thcent. cath. statutes were compiled, as it is there stated to owe 10 trugs of wheat and 20 of oats to the common fund each year (LS II 55). The preb. is assessed in the taxation of pope Nicholas of c. 1291 at £1 7s 8d (Taxatio p. 169a); in 1294 the preb., referred to as Hoptone, was assessed in a list entered into the register of bp. Swinfield at 2m (Reg. Swinfield p. 305: Hoptone). Valor III 10 assessed this preb. at 59s 4½d gross, 52s½d net.
