Profile

The relevant entry records that Glastonbury Abbey held 25 hides at Winterbourne Monkton in 1086, and that of this ‘same land Gilbert holds 3.5 hides; Ordgar held them TRE, and he could not be separated from the church. The whole manor was worth £12; now £20.’ This formula suggests that Ordgar’s share of the estate was leased from the abbey TRE.
