- In 1433 it was settled on Ralph and Eleanor for life and then on their son William, who probably died soon afterwards, and on his wife Joan, daughter of Sir Thomas Brooke. (fn. 51) In 1439 the reversion after Ralph's death was settled on John Hody, possibly in trust for John Carent (d. 1483), Joan Brooke's second husband.The manor appears to have been held by the Carent family in 1518 (fn. 52) and in 1538 was settledon Sir William Carent who, with his younger son Leonard, sold it to James Downham in 1558. (fn. 53)
