Profile

Holmger 2’s small estate was at Beckley, on a spur overlooking the Walkford Brook about 2 miles inland from Christchurch Bay in south-west Hampshire.   DB records that he held it ‘in parage’, which implies that it was land that he held by inheritance.   After the Conquest a quarter of the estate’s assessment and value were taken into the New Forest.

This was the only estate recorded in DB as being held by someone called Holmger TRE and there is no reason to consider him in connection with any other estate or person.
