Biography

Warine Bussell (d. abt. 1150), m. Maud; father of Richard.^[1]

Notes

Warine Bussel of Penworthham gave:

"plough-land in FARINGTON, ... to the abbey of Evesham, ... confirmed by his son Richard.

Penwortham Priory (Chet. Soc.), 3. The land is described as a plough-land in Lancs. Inq. and Extents (Rec. Soc. Lancs. and Ches.), i, 32, where the grant itself is ascribed to Richard. The abbots had in 1313 and 1334 disputes respecting boundaries with their neighbours of Walton-le-Dale; De Banco R. 201, m. 126; Coram Rege R. 297, m. 93. See also Cal. Pat. 1321–4, p. 446. Complaint was made in 1382 that the abbot had obstructed a road in Farington by rebuilding his mill; Q.R. Memo. R. 159

... lordship, ... descended same way as Evesham portion of Penwortham, all the abbey's rights in Farington as elsewhere being included in Queen Elizabeth's confirmation to John Fleetwood.

A family bearing the local name is early found in possession, but the whole or larger part was surrendered to the abbot and acquired by William de Meols, whose son John de Farington, by his marriage with Avice daughter of Robert Bussel, acquired a moiety of the manor of Leyland. Their estate also was known as the 'manor' of Farington. John was succeeded by his son William de Farington and his grandson William; the latter in 1348 obtained a grant of free warren in his demesne lands of Leyland and Farington, and licence to inclose a hundred acres of land and wood in those townships and make a park. The manors descended to William Farington, who died in 1456, leaving a son William, fifteen years old."^[2]
