Beaurepair
Agas MapThe Beaurepair was a messuage which had numerous owners. In 1298 it belonged to Hamo Box and in 1329 and 1336 it belonged to the Rokesley family (Harben 59). The latest known date of ownership, according to Harben, is Agnes Preston in 1402 to whom a portion of it belonged (Harben 59). It is
described as a place ‘where the hay is sold’ and in a ruinous condition(Harben 59). Specifically, from 1286 to 1281 the site was described
as vacant land with stone walls(Carlin and Belcher 65-6).
