A Reynolds or Raynolds farm in Shopland

Go directly to the Comments section

Hi, 

I am trying to find information on an area of land in Shopland referred to as Reynolds or Raynolds. It was originally owed by a man in Prittlewell who gifted it to the Jesus guild, St Mary's Church Prittlewell in the 1400s. When the dissolution came around the land was taken by the crown.

There is a reference to it being a farm:

Title:

Includes bond assigned on marriage between George Clark of South End in Prittlewell and Hannah Parsons of North Shoebury Hall, 1810

Do you know of any further information on this piece of land and its possible location?

Hi, 

Thank you for your help.

I have actually found the answer to my enquiry now. The name of the farm changed to Fox Hall. It was in a book on the history of the Rochford Hundred.

Kind regards,

Laura
