These Court Rolls detail land possession and transactions of Ropley, and some parts of Bishop’s Sutton, Bighton and Medstead from the medieval period to early 1700s. These are vital resources that detail place and field names, families and the ownership of the manor Ropley by Winchester College.
These documents were scanned at the request of Manni Kirchner by Susanne Foster; Winchester College Archivist in early 2022. They are currently being examined for place and field names that help understand the origins of Ropley and some neighboring Parishes.
