Background

History

Rudloe Manor dates from the beginning of the 13th century, in the reign of Henry III. A deed made by Bartholomew Bigod of Box granted the Rectory of Box and 'Ryddelow' (Rudloe), including all tithes, to Monkton Farleigh Priory. Courts Baron were held at Rudloe Manor and the Tithe Barn (in Ridlawe in Boxe parish) remained in their hands, separate from the Manor House, until the dissolution of the monasteries in 1539.
