    ================
    
    In 1086 the manor of WINSTONE was held by Ansfrid de Cormeilles who had received it on his marriage to a niece of Walter de Lacy, (fn. 45) although Walter's son Hugh may have held the estate at some stage. (fn. 46) The overlordship of the manor descended with the honor of Cormeilles, (fn. 47) passing in the early 13th century, at the division of the honor among the daughters of Walter de Cormeilles, to Godfrey of Craycombe who married Alice. (fn. 48) From 1303, however, the earls of Hereford were regarded as overlords of Winstone manor, (fn. 49) possibly by virtue of a grant of the overlordship of the honor of Cormeilles made by the Empress Maud to Miles of Gloucester in 1141.
