As at Kington the Pipard family held Bishampton under the Pichards. Robert Pipard was the tenant towards the end of the 12th century under John Pichard. (fn. 19) A Robert Pipard held the manor for the service of a knight's fee at the beginning of the 13th century. (fn. 20) At this point the manor seems to have been divided, part passing with Kington to Guy Pipard and part to William Pipard, who may have been a younger brother of Guy.

The other part of the Pipards' manor was apparently held by William Pipard in 1234 and 1240–1. (fn. 52) It was, perhaps, this estate which was sold in 1313–14 as land at Bishampton by William son of Cecily Pipard, kinsman and one of the heirs of Robert Pipard, to Guy de Beauchamp Earl of Warwick.
