Preston Bagot
Preston Bagot is a village and civil parish in the Stratford district of Warwickshire, England, about  west of the county town of Warwick. According to the 2001 census the population was 147, reducing to 127 at the 2011 census. History 
Preston Bagot is recorded in the Domesday Book as part of the lands of the Count of Meulan, Robert of Beaumont who had inherited Meulan through his mother. It states; "In Ferncombe Hundred, (Prestetone), Preston Bagot, Thornbern held it; he was a free man. 5 hides. Land for 3 ploughs. In lordship 1 plough; 2 slaves. A mill at 16 s; woodland 1 league long and 1/2 league wide; when exploited, value 10s. The value was 30s, now 50s." At the time of the Domesday Book, and earlier, Preston consisted in total of 10 hides. Five of these as described above, the other five Britnod held. All 10 hides were held by Robert de Beaumont, in 1086, but Hugh held of the count Britnod's 5 hides, which subsequently formed the manor of Beaudesert. Turbern's portion is said to have passed from the count to his younger brother Henry, afterwards Earl of Warwick. The overlordship descended with the earldom of Warwick at least until 1315–16. It is supposed that this land was given to Ingeram Bagot by William de Newburgh, Earl of Warwick, possibly about 1170, and it is from this family that the name of Preston Bagot is derived.
