In 1086 MORTON, which had formerly been held by Grimuif, was held as 2 hides by Hugh from Robert de Staffbrd.6 The overlordship continued inthe hands of the Staffords until at least 1403 but in 1560 the manor was said to be held of Sir Edward Aston.

Although direct evidence is lacking, the manor seems to have come to Robert son of Odo of Loxley in the sixth century. His co-heirs were three daughters, who married respectively Peter de Mora, William Trussell, and William Bagot. Peter's grandson and namesake gave the advowson ofMorton church, with land here, to Kenilworth Priory, and the descendants of Trussell and Bagot each held a manor, distinguished from about 1300 as MORTON BAGOT.

William had no issue and the manor passed through his sister to her granddaughter Alice, the wife of Richard Archer, who in 1436 made a settlement of the manor and advowson on herself and her heirs. Alice died in 1461 without issue, and her cousin, Thomas Conyngesby, claimed the manor as heir, but thefeoffees said that at the request of Alice they had released the manor to Richard Archer to be sold and the money used for masses for the souls of Richard and Alice and their ancestors. They also claimed th
