Profile

Liut 3’s manor was at Kemerton, on the lower slopes of Bredon Hill in north Gloucestershire (transferred to Worcestershire in modern times), while its dependent outlier was 8 miles away at Boddington, where the River Chelt and its tributaries drain across the Vale of Gloucester. DB does not state explicitly that Liut held Boddington TRE but the wording of the entry makes it clear that it was attached to Kemerton manor before that had passed to the TRW holder.

DB notes that Liut was one of several TRE landholders in this part of Gloucestershire who had placed themselves and their lands under the power of the powerful local magnate Beorhtric son of Ælfgar (Beorhtric 36)..

Luit 3 was the only person of that name recorded by DB as holding land in either TRE or 1086.
