- William Colvill was holding the manor in 1284– 5 (fn. 105) and was succeeded by his brother Robert, (fn. 106) to whom a third brother Philip released in 1306 all claim to the manor of Dale and land in Arncliffe. The latter had two sons, both called Robert, of whom the younger succeeded. (fn. 107) His son William was his heir, and confirmed charters of his ancestors to Byland in 1365. (fn. 108) He settled the manor on himself and his wife Joan (fn. 109) with remainder to their heirs male. After their death it was inherited by their second son John, (fn. 110) who was beheaded for treason in 1405. (fn. 111) His estates passed in accordance with the settlement to his grandson John, (fn. 112) who died without issue. (fn. 113) His aunts Joan and Isabel inherited his lands, Joan, who was the wife of Sir William Mauleverer of Wothersome, coming into possession of Daletown. (fn. 114) Her grandson Edmund Mauleverer, son of Robert, (fn. 115) was lord here in 1468. (fn. 116) He died in 1493– 4, and was succeeded by his son Robert, (fn. 117) whose son Sir William Mauleverer died seised in 1551. (fn. 118) The manor had been settled on him with remainder to Edmund, son of Robert Mauleverer his second son. (fn. 119) In 1568 Edmund Mauleverer sold Daletown to Gilbert Gerrard. (fn. 120) It was conveyed almost immediately by Gilbert Gerrard to Leonard Dacre in exchange for other lands, (fn. 121) and was among the possessions of the latter when they were forfeited for his treason in 1570. (fn. 122) Sir Thomas Gargrave petitioned several times for a grant of Daletown 'to keep some sheep for his house.' (fn. 123) It was not, however, granted to him, but to Henry Lord Hunsdon in consideration of the service he had done against the rebels. (fn. 124) He conveyed it back to the Crown a few years later, (fn. 125) probably in exchange for other lands, and in 1610 it was leased to his brother John Lord Hunsdon. (fn. 126) In the early part of the reign of Charles I the manor was granted to trustees for money advanced to the king by the City of London. (fn. 127) Sir Hugh Cholmeley bought it with Aislaby (q.v.) in 1632. (fn. 128) He or his heirs must have sold it to the Bellasis family. It was registered among the estates of the recusant Lord Fauconberg in 1717. (fn. 129) The reversion belonged under his uncle's will (fn. 130) to Sir Thomas Frankland, bart., of Thirkleby, whose elder son Thomas quitclaimed it to his brother Frederick in 1737. (fn. 131) The estates of Frederick Frankland were inherited by his daughter Anne, who married Thomas Lord Pelham. (fn. 132) Lord Pelham was holding the manor in 1778. (fn. 133)
