The history of this village runs back to the time of the Roman invasion, B.C. 55, for it was just here that the battle raged when Romans and Britons fought the great pitched battle, the Romans advancing from their camp on Barham Downs, and by the sheer force of the weight of their legions swept down into this valley, slaughtering and scattering the British forces, who never again made such a determined stand against the invaders as they did at “Old England’s Hole” on the north-east side of this parish, when the Stour, then a rapid river, was reddened with blood, and the bodies of our British forefathers were buried in impromptu graves which their heroism hallowed. Of Saxon days, the church is the most tangible record left. Most of its fabric and its architectural adornment is now Norman, but the church itself was built in the Saxon period, and the rude but massive masonry of the piers of the south aisle are probably a portion of the early work. The beauty of the situation and the fertility of the land made Patrixbourn attractive to Odo, Bishop of Baieux, who included it in his many possessions. At the beginning of the Norman period it was held by Richard, son of William, under lease from Odo, and there were then attached to the manor six sulings (about 1400 acres), and in addition to Richard’s household there were on the manor 47 other families, 43 being villiens and four borderers—a population quite equal to that of to-day. These facts, taken from the Domesday survey, were recorded in the year 1084, and four years later, on the disgrace of Odo, the manor was broken up into sections of Merton, Cheney, Renville, and Higham, which were for many generations accounted separate manors. The Manor of Merton, afterwards called the Manor of Patrixbourn, was first held by the de Bornes, and Margerie, a daughter of the last of the Bornes, carried it in marriage to a Norman named John de Pratellis, who gave it to the Priory of Beaulieu in Normandy, with whom the possession remained until the time of Henry IV., when by the King’s licence it was given to the Merton Priory, Surrey, and so remained until the 31st year of the reign of Henry VIII, when the manor, coming into the hands of the Crown, was granted to Sir Thomas Cheney, as a Knight’s fee, and Edward VI. confirmed the Cheney’s in the freehold possession of it. Very soon after, however, the property was several times sold—first to Sir Thomas Herbert, and next to William Partherich. The grandson of the latter, Sir Edward Partherich, of Bridge, sold it in 1638 to Mr., afterwards Sir Arnold Braems, a Dover merchant, who built the Elizabethan Dover Custom House, and his son, Walter Braems, sold the manor in 1704 to John Taylor, Esq.. At that time the manor, which had been known as Merton, came to be called the Manor of Patrixbourne, and was united with other manors of the parish. The other part of the ancient manor, called Cheney, after the disgrace of Odo was held by the Say family, until Sir Edward de Say in the reign of Henry III. sold it to Sir Alexander Cheney, who resided there for several generations, and the Manor of Merton was united with it in the possession of Sir Thomas Cheney in the 31st year of Henry VIII., both Manors of Merton and Cheney taking the same line of succession and possession, until this also came into the possession of Edward Taylor, Esq., beforenamed. There was also the subsidiary Manor of Hode, or Hothe, which was anciently the possession of a family named Isaac. John Isaac was its owner in the time of Edward III, and continued in that family till the reign of Henry VIII., when by special Act of Parliament the lands were disgovelled. It afterwards went to the Palmers of Howlets, then by sale to Edward Merriweather, who in 1680 sold it to Thomas Adrian, who in 1694 sold it to John Taylor, Esq. There were also the two other small Manors of Renville and Higham. The separate possession of the former is recorded from the time of James I., when it was owned by the Crippens, next by the Naylors, and in 1638 it was sold to Archdeacon William Kingley, of Canterbury, who left a numerous issue, and it continued in that family’s possession until the Nineteenth Century. Higham Manor, which adjoins the northern side of Barham Downs, was in the possession of William de Higham, and descended to his son Nicholas by deed in the 13th year of Edward III.; subsequently it seems for many generations, to have been possessed by the owners of the Manor of Bishopsbourne until the year 1768, when Ignatius Geohagan built the present house, called Higham Place, which in 1781 came into the possession of the Hallets, and it has continued in the possession of that family till the present time.
