Easthope Registers.
EASTHOPE
Easthope is a parish of 817 acres, situated on the southern side of Wenlock Edge, five miles S.W. from Wenlock, in the Hundred of Munslow, the Archdeaconry of Ludlow and Diocese of Hereford. It comprises the township of Easthope and part of Lutwyche. The population was 85 in 1801, 103 in 1831, 95 in 1931.
The Domesday Manor of Stope consisted of two hides held of Earl Roger by Rainald the Sheriff, and under him by Fulcher. Rainald's Manor passed at an early date to Fitzalan, under whom it was held by a family taking its name from the place. Henry de Esthop occurs in 1209. In 1238 Thomas de Easthop held half a Knight's fee in Easthope of the Barony of Fitzalan. In 1247 William de Easthop is named on a jury. In 1255 John de Easthop held Easthope for 2 hides of John Fitzalan, and he continued in possession for 50 years. He was a person of some consequence, being Coroner in 1272, and concerned in the Perambulation of the Royal Forests of the County in 1300. In 1303 a Fine was levied between John de Easthop and Roger de Easthop of the manor of Easthope to the use of John for life, remainder to John, son of Thomas de Easthop and Margaret daughter of John de Wenlock and their heirs. At the Inquisition on the death of John de Easthope in 1306 it was found that he held the manor of Easthope for life by service of finding a man and horse at Oswestry for 40 days in time of war; that John, son of Thomas, had not married Margaret and was dead without issue; and that Thomas, son of Thomas, was the next heir and aged 12. Roger de Cheyne was guardian of this Thomas in 1312.
In 1324 a Fine was levied between Thomas de Easthope and John de Hopton of the manor and advowson, to the use of Thomas and Joan his wife in fee tail. In 1346 Thomas de Easthope held Easthope, which John de Easthope formerly held of William Fitzalan.
In 1383 John de Easthope, patron of the Church, had been murdered by the then Rector William Garmeston, who in consequence was deprived. Edith the widow of John, as Lady of Easthope, presented till 1408.
At an Assize of 1414 it was presented that John Esthope of Esthope, "Sqyer", at Wenlock feloniously slew William Calweton of Calweton, and that Richard Esthope his brother and John Taillour his servant were present " aiding and comforting " him to commit the felony.
In 1431 John Esthope of Presthope " gentelman " held the manor of Easthope by service of half a Knight's fee of John de Mautravers, it being worth iiii li.
Edward, son of Richard Easthope of Easthope, was admitted a Burgess of Shrewsbury in 1459, and was a Member of Parliament for that town in that year.
By a Fine dated 1497 John Haltman and his wife conveyed to Henry and Nicholas Warley the manor and advowson of Easthope and lands in Easthope, Presthope, Astwall, Lutwyche, Willey, Broxton, Henley and Bould. Nicholas Warley died in 1523 and
ii EASTHOPE REGISTER.
was succeeded by Bartholomew Warley, who died in 1556, seised of the manor and advowson of Easthope, and of a messuage, 28 acres of meadow, 400 of pasture, 15 of wood and 30 of furze and heath in Easthope, Bould, Astwall and Presthope, and of 6d. rent in Brockton, and of a farm, 200 acres of pasture, 6 of meadow in Lutwyche, and a water-mill in Easthope. The premises in Easthope, Bould and Astwall were held of the Earl of Arundel, the lands in Presthope of William Woolrych Esq., those in Lutwyche of the lord of Brockton. His next heir was his sister Frances, wife of Nicholas Crostwait, aged 50. In 1576 an Inquiry was held before the Lord Mayor and Aldermen at Guild Hall, London, when William Ball of Easthope, yeoman, and Nicholas Crostwaite, citizen and vintner of London, were examined as to certain interrogatories exhibited on behalf of Edward Lutwyche of Lutwyche, gent. Crostwaite deposed (Feb. 14th) that he and his wife Frances (since deceased) were seised of the manor of Easthope and other lands in right of Frances, and that they in 4 & 5 Ph. & Mary had sold (inter alia) to Richard Lutwyche and others a parcel of Netherwood in Easthope, excepting a part lying on the E. side of a highway called Premway separating Hughley and Lushcott. In the mearing of this Premway a cord was drawn between Premway and an " Ivey Oke " standing next the Bee Brook (Deed in Shrewsbury Free Library).
The over-lordship of Fitzalan Earl of Arundel passed to Rowland Hayward of London, to whom in 1567 William Ball owed Suit of Court at Round Acton " for Estoppe late Worley's land."
Before the date of the above mentioned Inquiry the manor of Easthope had been sold, apparently to the Ludlows of Moorhouse in Shipton. Thomas Ludlow, son of Lawrence Ludlow of Moorhouse, presented to the Rectory of Easthope in 1563, and Morice Ludlow of Moorhouse, his brother and heir, presented in 1571. He died s.p. in 1595. In or near 1613 " the heirs of Morice Ludlow " held Easthope of the Earl of Suffolk as of his Honour of Oswestry. George Ludlow of Moorhouse presented in 1623, and died in 1670. His son George Ludlow of Moorhouse presented in 1672, and died in 1677 leaving coheirs, of whom the eldest Elizabeth married the Rev. Richard Baugh, Vicar of Stoke S. Milborough (d. 1708), and she, as his widow, presented to Easthope in 1709.
Samuel Edwards of Frodesley and Moorhouse was Patron of Easthope in 1732. It is mentioned in his will (1738) that he had purchased Ball's Farm in Easthope from Charles Mason of Bishop's Castle. William Ball of Easthope sold this property before 1664 to Thomas Mason of Bishop's Castle his brother-in-law, father of Charles, who was M.P. for Bishop's Castle in 1695.
In 1746 William Lutwyche owned Easthope, and it continued in that family till shortly before 1793, when it was purchased by Bartlet Goodriche. It was the property of the Bensons of Lutwyche before 1820. Major George R. Benson is the present owner and Lord of the Manor.
The manor house is a half-timber Elizabethan building, which is described by Mr. H. E. Forrest in " Old Houses of Wenlock," p. 39. This may have been the home of the Fewtrells, an old established Easthope family. Blakeway mentions Rowland Fewtrell of Easthope, who died in 1595. Their arms can be seen on a curious tomb with a pent-house covering on the S. side of the Church, where Sarah, wife of John Fewtrell gent. (1689), and Thomas Fewtrell (1764) are buried, with probably others, but the inscriptions are much worn. A branch of the family was seated at the Down in the parish of Chetton.
Crowther's Farm, now a cottage, on the opposite side of the road, is partly timber, of great antiquity, and partly stone bearing
EASTHOPE REGISTER. iii
the date 1658 and the initials of Simon Crowther, buried at Easthope in 1676. His descendant John Crowther married Hester, daughter and coheir of Thomas Astley of Claverley, and by that marriage the family became possessed of an estate there. John Astley Crowther was baptized at Easthope in 1752. This farm is also described by Mr. Forrest (l.c. p. 41).
LUTWYCHE. This was the Loteis of Domesday, a manor of one hide, held by Rainald the Sheriff, and under him by Richard. Rainald's lands passed to the Fitzalans, under whom this manor was held by the lords of Brocton, whose tenants were a family taking their name from the place, who from a remote period held Lutwyche, continuing here till 1786. William de Lutwich occurs in 1203. In 1260-70 William lord of Lotwyns held the manor under Thomas de Brocton; he was a Regarder of the Royal Forests.
In 1556 Bartholomew Warley, already mentioned as lord of Easthope, died seised of a farm and 206 acres in Lutwyche. This passed with Easthope to the Crostwaites, and in 1565 Nicholas Crostwaite and Ralph Warley sold to Edward Lutwyche of the Inner Temple the capital messuage or farm commonly called the Farm of Lutwyche, with all lands etc. in Lutwyche and Easthope.
In 1614 Edward Lutwyche died seised of a capital messuage called the Farm of Lutwyche, a toft, a garden, an orchard, 200 acres of land, 50 of meadow, 200 of pasture, 40 of wood, 20 of furze and heath, with 53s. 4d. rent in Lutwyche and Easthope, held of George Ludlow as of his manor of Brocton. He is described in the Rushbury Register as " vir bonus et pauperibus beneficus et munificus patronus." His great-grandson, Sir Edward Lutwyche, who died in 1709, was a Judge of Common Pleas and Recorder of Chester. Sir Edward's grandson William Lutwyche was Sheriff of Shropshire in 1570, and died in 1773, leaving a son William Lutwyche, in whose time Lutwyche passed by purchase to the Langton family. Thomas Langton was patron in 1794, and was buried at Easthope in 1805. In 1807 Lutwyche was sold to Moses Benson of Liverpool, whose descendant Major George Reginald Benson is the present owner.
Lutwyche Hall was originally built by Judge Lutwyche in 1587, but the L-shaped form has been obliterated by later additions. It is described by Mr. H. E. Forrest (l.c., p. 41).
THE CHURCH OF ST. PETER.
The Church which was destroyed by fire in 1928 was an ancient building with several interesting features. There is a record of it in 1291, and the walls were at least as old as that date. The only detail which might go back as far was the bowl-shaped Font. The East window was Decorated, and on the S. wall was a " low-side " window. There was a massive oak screen, and some fine carving on the oak pews with the following inscription:- "Edward Ball of London gave this pulpit and pewes to this parishe wheare he was borne June 28 Anno Domini 1623." Projecting from this pulpit was a wrought-iron hourglass-holder with its glass, and attached was the date 1662 and the initials S.S. (Samuel Stedman was rector at that date). This iron-work was rescued from the fire, as also was the Sanctuary Ring on the door. The present Church is not entirely new, and its outward appearance resembles the former ancient building.
In the Edwardian Inventory of Church Goods there remained at Easthope in 1553 " too bellys one chalys of sellver wt the paten ther unto belongynge," Edward Fewtrell and Edward Dyke being then Churchwardens.
In 1904 there were three bells, only one of which was hung, the old 2nd by Thomas Rudhall, dated 1764, bearing the names of
iv EASTHOPE REGISTER.
the churchwarden Jones Wild. The other two were cracked and were then kept at a blacksmith's shop. The smaller bell, by an unknown founder, was inscribed " The gift of Richerd Lutwich 1584 "; the larger one, by Richard Oldfield, was inscribed " Jesus be our spede 1638." See Transactions, III, iv, 8. These bells seem to have disappeared, and may have been used in making up the Carillon of six now in use.
Under one of the yew trees in the churchyard are two stones with raised crosses but no inscription, the reputed graves of two monks of Wenlock, who quarrelled in the kitchen of the farm near by, and in their struggles fell down the cellar steps and were killed.
THE REGISTERS.
VOLUME I consists of 46 parchment leaves, with one (a portion of a Deed) inserted at the end, 13½in. by 6in., bound in a leather cover inscribed " The Parish Register of Easthope from the year 1624 to 1794." It is generally in good condition, the entries legible and well written. The churchwardens sign for the years. There is an interesting list of Briefs. The principal Families are those of Ludlow, Lutwyche and Fewtrell, while those of Adney, Amies, Baldwin, Ball, Blakeway, Cocke, Crowther and Stedman are of interest.
VOLUME II consists of 8 parchment leaves 12in. x 8in. in a parchment cover inscribed " The Register of Easthope 1794-1812." Each page is headed Births (left page) or Burials (right page); births apparently meaning baptisms.
VOLUME III contains only 28 entries, being Marriages from 1754 to 1812 in the usual printed form, with Banns.
The marriages have been transcribed up to 1830 from another similar Volume.
