The manor of WOODMANTON (Wodemonton, xiii cent.; Woddemanton, xiv cent.) was held of the lords of Ham Castle. Among early undated deeds in a collection of documents relating to the property of the Ingrams is included a grant by Ellis 'Venator' de Woodmanton to Walter, clerk, son of Richard Fitz Eustace of Homme, of land called Held lying in Modebache, near the grove of Modebache, and in length extending from the place called Wam Grove to the land of Lucian de Woodmanton. This evidently refers to Woodmanton in Clifton upon Teme, as does also another grant by Lucian de Woodmanton and Alice his wife to Richard son of Richard Eustace of Ham, of land lying between Lucian's land and Walter Grey's, and extending from the Held Helie to the king's highway. Gilbert de Woodmanton contributed 3s. to the subsidy of about 1280. There is, however, no mention of the manor until 1332, when John de Wisham obtained leave to crenellate his manor-house of Woodmanton. A grant of 1328 of free warren to John in his demesnes at Clifton and Ham may relate to this estate. He died in 1332 seised of the manor, which then comprised a messuage and 2 carucates of land.

The Clerk is one of the oldest known officials in local government with beginnings back in Ancient
Greece. The title is derived from the Latin clericus where it meant a person who could read, write and
serve as a notary or recorder. English history shows that the role of the city clerk can be traced to 1272
AD. A quote from Chief Justice Lord Caldecote, in a ruling in a legal case before the English Court during
the Middle Ages says "The office of town clerk is an important part of the machinery of local government.
He may be said to stand between the local council and the ratepayers..."
Martley is 36 miles from Penkridge and about the same distance from Coventry.
