Extract

This deed, which is copied from a fine Chartulary in Sir Edward Dering's library, is curious both for the instrument itself, and the seal. It was perused by our famous Kentish antiquary Mr. John Philipot, who tells us, in his account of Wickam-Brews, that, “in the twentieth year of “Wil- “ liam the Conqueror, Odo, bishop of Baion, and earl of Kent, held this place of the gift of his half brother, which was “that prince; and Trendley Park, adjoining there, was a composition between the archbishop and this man, for certain land “of the said archbishop, to be inclosed, and included within the “said park at Trendley: which signifies thus much unto us, “that Woodstock, which boasts itself to be the first inclosed “park of England, was not so ancient as this at Trendley.”
