THE DEVOLUTION OF THE MANORS OF MONTGOMERYSHIRE. IV. THE MANOR OF BAUSLEY. THE Manor of Bausley' is of early date, and probably of Saxon origin. It is one of the manors mentioned in Doomsday, as being held by Siward before the Conquest, and by Roger Fitz Corbet, of the Norman Earl, in the following passage: "The same Roger held Beleslei. Siward held it in Saxon times. Here is one hide, not geldable. Here are two Welsh (tenants), with one ox-team. The former and present value of the Manor) was and is 2s., and yet is at ferm for 6s. 8d. per annum." The peculiarity of its not being geldable, (i.e., subject to the ordinary dues which attached to a hundred), was the cause of it not appearing in the Hundred Roll of the Hundred of Ford, within which it was situated. It was withdrawn by the Corbets into their Walcheria, and so remained after the conquest of Wales, and it is at the present time in the Hundred of Deytheur in Montgomeryshire. 1 The spelling of this name has varied considerably from time to time. In Doomsday it is "Beleslei", in an Inquisition of 1277 "Ballisleg", in 1309 "Balisleye", in 1375 "Ballysseye" and "Ballisleye", in 1472 "Ballesley", in 16 Henry VII “Ballesley" and "Balisley", in 17 Henry VII "Ballisley ", in 6 Edward VI (1552) "Ballersley", in 9 Elizabeth "Bauslley", in 10 Elizabeth" Balsly", and "Ballersley ", in 24 Elizabeth "Balseley", in 31 Elizabeth Balisley", in 7 James "Balseley ", in 20 James I "Baulseley", in 3 Charles I "Bausley", in 1692 "Baulsley", and in 1721 "Bansley", which has since that time been the settled orthography of the name. 2 Eyton's Antiquities of Shropshire, vol. vii, p. 97. |
