Previous holder: Unknown after the FitzHugh holding ended; Lord Dacre is named as vendor in the later historical account Holding arrangement: sole Share / interest: Whole manor, subject to any superior tenure not detailed here Shared holding: Lambert family Narrative / explanation: A local historical account based on J. W. Morkill's History of Kirkby Malhamdale states that John Lambert purchased Airton Manor from Lord Dacre in 1530. The deed catalogue provides direct corroboration of his manorial status: a 1536 deed calls him lord of Airton, a 1544 quitclaim calls him lord of Airton and concerns rights in the manor, and 1560 and 1573 documents identify him as lord or owner of the manor. The exact legal instrument of the 1530 purchase has not been located in the consulted public sources. Source citation: J. W.

Previous holder: John Lambert of Calton Holding arrangement: sole Share / interest: Whole manor, subject to the terms of settlements and leases Shared holding: Lambert family Narrative / explanation: A 1567 settlement placed Airton Hall and associated lands to the use of Benjamin Lambert and his wife after the relevant life interests, and a 1588 lease describes Benjamin as John Lambert's son and heir while reserving the term until John's death. The later historical account states that Benjamin inherited his father's estate in 1596 and possessed the neighbouring manors of Airton, Calton and Kirkby Malham by 1597.

Previous holder: Benjamin Lambert of Airton Holding arrangement: sole Share / interest: Whole manor within the inherited Lambert estate Shared holding: Lambert family Narrative / explanation: The consulted historical research states that Josias Lambert inherited the estate from his half-brother Benjamin in 1598. It also records that the inheritance and terms of Benjamin's will produced a family dispute and litigation. The source links Josias to the estate containing Airton, but does not provide a separate dated deed expressly conveying Airton Manor to him; the entry is therefore retained with medium evidence strength.
