KENT – 13th century. Document on vellum, grant by Algar de Grofherst to Hamo de Crevequor of lands at ‘Batmundenne’ [Badmonden], n.p., n.d. [c.1230-40].
In Latin. 11 lines on a single membrane, 90 x 215, early dockets on verso, including the localisation 'Farleghe' (seal lacking), original vellum seal tag present but detached, formed from a draft (salutation only) of a letter from Hamo to dominus R de Acstede [Sir Roland of Oxted in Surrey, kt]. Provenance: Sir Edward Dering 1st Bt (1598-1644, Kentish antiquarian and collector: ownership mark on verso).
A grant to Hamo de Crevecoeur, lord of Leeds Castle. For the sum of 50 shillings, Algar grants 10 acres of land in the parish of ‘Horsbirdenne’ [Horsmonden] lying in Badmonden between the park of Bukingefaude [Bockingford] and the road leading to Gateford bridge, to be held of the cathedral priory of Christ Church, Canterbury, by the services due to them, and an annual quitrent ('forgabulum') of one obol (halfpenny) to Algar for all services [due to him]. The witnesses are Alfred de Dene, Ralph de Pinpe, John de Lalande, Gilbert de Badeselle, Walter de Brandingeber, Eudo de Chiveny and John de Chiveni.
Hamo de Crevecoeur (also Crevequer, d. 1263) of Leeds Castle is recorded as having held the title of 'Keeper of the Coast' (an early variant of Warden of the Cinque Ports) in 1235. According to Haste, Badmonden is a 'reputed manor' in the parish of Horsemonden: 'The manor of East Farleigh and East Peckham claims over this part of Horsemonden [sic]; the freeholders in Badmonden holding their lands of it in free socage tenure' (Edward Hasted, 'Parishes: Horsemonden', in The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent: Volume 5 (Canterbury, 1798), pp. 311-322.
