Hurst.

THis place takes it name from the situation which is upon a dry bank; for so the word 〈◊〉〈◊〉 in the Saxon imports. The first mention I find hereof is in 1 H. 2. upon translation of the Monks from Radmore to Crulefield, being then removed i hi∣ther. Which K. upon the foundation of Stoneley-Abby gave k the Monks this place in augmentation of their possessions, whereof they afterwards obtain'd K. Iohn's confirmation l; and out of their essarts here, in process of time, made a Grange m called Bo∣kindene, situat about half a mile from hence.

This Hurst was antiently a pretty Village con∣sisting of 19 houses, of which in the beginning of H. 7. time, there was no more than one left; and is now, for the most part, possest by the Lord Leigh of Stoneley, descended to him from his great-grandfather, who purchas'd it in the be∣ginning of Q. Eliz. time.
