Administrative / Biographical history

By the royal endowment of 25 March 1441 the College of Eton was granted a farm and rent of £5 14s 2d which Walter Striklond, esquire, paid the crown for the custody of all lands, tenements, rents and services, with their appurtenances, in North Mundham and Compton, co. Sussex, and "Welegh" or Wheely, in Warnford, co. Hants, which had formerly belonged to the abbey of Lucerne in Normandy. The college was at the same time granted the reversion of the lands. They were among the college properties resumed by Edward IV, who granted them on 26 February 1462 for 20 years to William Beaufitz. They were however re-granted to the college on 17 July 1467, only to be lost again by a grant to the Dean and Canons of Windsor on 17 May 1474. At what exact date the college recovered the property does not appear either from the Patent Rolls or the records at Eton.
