History
In 1542 the Crown granted most of the land at Murcott to the Dean and Chapter of Westminster Abbey.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. They retained it until the end of the 19th century, when it passed to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. There was also one hide of land that belonged to Abingdon Abbey.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. In about 1180 the Abbot of Abingdon gave this holding in an exchange of land to one William Turpin.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. In 1230 Godstow Abbey bought the land from Osbert Turpin, but had to continue paying quit-rent to Abingdon Abbey.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. At the dissolution of the monasteries in the 1530s the land passed to the Crown, which disposed of it in 1553.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. Fencott used to have a public house, the Black Bull. It closed before 1939, but there is still a Black Bull Lane in the hamlet.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found.
