Kinwarton
Kinwarton is a village in the valley of the River Alne, Warwickshire, to the north east of the market town of Alcester. The ground is mostly low-lying, with a maximum altitude of 206 ft. and some of the fields near the river are liable to floods. The road from Alcester to Henley-in-Arden runs through the middle of the parish. A branch road leads off to the church and rectory about a quarter of a mile to the south and thence continues as a field-path down to a ford across the Arrow below Hoo Mill. From the north side of the main road a by-road branches off to Coughton.〔A History of the County of Warwick, URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=56996〕
== History ==
The 17th century antiquary William Dugdale believed the name Kinwarton to be Saxon, deriving from the popular Saxon name Kineward.〔William Dugdale, ''The Antiquities of Warwickshire''〕 The name first appears in 708 when land at Kinwarton was given by Coenred King of Mercia to Bishop Egwin towards the endowment of his newly founded monastery at Evesham.〔 This is then confirmed by the ''Domesday Book'' which records it as being part of the land of Evesham Church "in the Ferncombe Hundred in Chenevertone (Kinwarton) 3 hides. Ranulf holds from the Abbot. Land for 5 ploughs. In Lordship 1; 3 slaves; 3 villagers and 2 smallholders with 1 plough. A mill at 3s; meadow, 1 furlong long and 12 perches wide. The value was 40s; later 5s; now 20s."〔''Domesday Book for Warwickshire'', Phillimore edited by John Morris ISBN 0-85033-141-2〕
After the Dissolution of the Monasteries the manor was purchased by Sir Fulke Greville, 1st Baron Brooke from the Skinner family.〔
