The manor of Puttenham seems to have come into the possession of Hugh de Herdeburgh, [Duchy of Lanc. Ret. of Knts'. Fees, bdle. 2, No. 7] from whom it descended to his son Roger. Roger left two daughters, Ela and Isabel, who jointly held the manor in 1297\endash 8. [Inq. p.m. 25 Edw. I, No. 51] From them it appears to have returned to the family of Puttenham.

"In Domesday Book Harboroughis rated at 8½ hides, 4½ being held by Richard the Forester (fn. 6) and 4 by Anseis, [V.C.H. Warw. i, 343] in each case directly of the king. Richard's holding had before 1066 been held freely by four thegns, that of Anseis by Bruning.

Hugh de Loges, a descendant of Richard the Forester, [Dugd. 472] quitclaimed 16 virgates in HHarborough Magna to Roger de Herdebergh in 1232. [Feet of F. (Dugd. Soc. xi), 464. Cf. Bracton's Note Book, 950] This Roger was in 1253 exempted from being put on assizes, juries, or inquests, and from being made sheriff, verderer, or coroner. [Cal. Pat. 1247-58, p. 193] The overlordship had by this time come to the Hastings family, and Hugh de Herdebergh, Roger's son, held half a knight's fee in Harborough which in 1269 was assigned to Joan, widow of Henry de Hastings, in dower.

At the beginning of the 13th century the manor of PAILTON was in the hands of William de Turville, who assented to his son William endowing his wife Maud (de Hastings) therein. In 1217, after the death of the younger William, Maud claimed the whole manor as dower, while her father-in-law would only grant her one-third of it. [Bracton's Note Book, no. 1355] The younger William having died without issue, his estates were divided between his sisters, Cecily wife of Roger de Craft, and Pernel wife of Simon de Crewelton (whose descendants took the name of Turville); the third sister, Isabel, who married Walhamet le Poure, seems to have left no issue. [V.C.H. Bucks. ii, 366-8; V.C.H. Warw. iii, 93] Roger de Craft's son Roger was succeeded by his sisters Isabel wife of Hugh de Herdeburgh and Beatrice, whose first husband was William de Charneles. Accordingly in 1297 in the list of knights' fees of Edmund, Earl of Lancaster, we find a half-fee in Pailton and Harborough held by Nicholas de Turville, and a quarter-fee each held by Hugh de Herdebergh and George de Charneles in Pailton. [Cal. Inq. p.m. iii, pp. 310, 320]
