Location: East Shefford, Berkshire
Listed in Domesday Book: No
Ownership / Holder Account
Land now represented by a farm called WICKFIELD at the southern end of the parish was conveyed early in 1199 by Ralph de Wickfeld to Robert de Wickfield and Maud his wife. This may have been the land which was in dispute between Henry de Boxworth and Nicholas the forester in 1233, the latter perhaps being identical with Nicholas de Wickfeld whose son John sold to Richard de Elfinton and Nichola his wife a messuage and land in Wickfield. Before 1316 Wickfield had become part of the manor of East Shefford, with which it has since descended.
