Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

The Manor of Colkennington alias Kempton adjoined Sunbury Manor. In 1066 it is recorded as held by one Ulward. In 1104 the owner William of Mortain was convicted of treason and the lands became Crown property. The Crown leased or granted the manor to various courtiers. By 1864 the property belonged to the Barnett family, who sold the land in 1876 but kept the title of lord of the manor.
