James is mainly Perpendicular, and contains a number of See also:brasses of the 15th and 16th centuries and several notable monumental tombs. A ruined See also:manor See also:house of the 16th See also:century and some almshouses See also:complete, with the church, a picturesque See also:group of buildings; and Campden House, also of the 16th century, deserves See also:notice.
Apart from a See also:medieval tradition preserved by See also:Robert de Brunne that it was the See also:- MEETING (from " to meet," to come together, assemble, 0. Eng. metals ; cf. Du. moeten, Swed. mota, Goth. gamotjan, &c., derivatives of the Teut. word for a meeting, seen in O. Eng. Wit, moot, an assembly of the people; cf. witanagemot)
meeting-See also:place of a See also:conference of Saxon See also:kings, the earliest See also:record of Campden (Campedene) is in Domesday See also:Book, when See also:Earl See also:Hugh is said to hold it, and to have there fifty villeins. The number shows that a large See also:village was attached to the manor, which in 1173 passed to Hugh de Gondeville, and about 1204 to See also:Ralph, earl of See also:Chester. The See also:- BOROUGH (A.S. nominative burh, dative byrig, which produces some of the place-names ending in bury, a sheltered or fortified place, the camp of refuge of a tribe, the stronghold of a chieftain; cf. Ger. Burg, Fr. bor, bore, bourg)
- BOROUGH [BURROUGH, BURROWE, BORROWS], STEVEN (1525–1584)
borough must have grown up during the 12th century, for both these lords granted the burgesses charters which are known from a See also:confirmation of 1247, granting that they and all who should come to the market of Campedene should be quit of See also:toll, and that if any See also:free See also:burgess of Campedene should come into the See also:lord's amerciament he should be quit for 12d. unless he should See also:shed See also:blood or do See also:- FELONY (0. Fr. felonie, from felon, a word meaning " wicked," common to Romanic languages, cf. Italian fella, fellone, the ultimate origin of which is obscure, but is possibly connected either with Lat. fel, gall, or fallere, to deceive. The English " fel
felony. Probably Earl Ralph also granted the town a portman-mote, for the See also:account of a skirmish in 1273 between the men of the town and the See also:county mentions a See also:bailiff and implies the existence of some sort of municipal See also:government. In 1605 Campedene was incorporated, but it never returned representatives to See also:parliament. See also:Camden speaks of the town as a market famous for stockings, a relic of that medieval importance as a mart for See also:wool that had given the town the name of Chipping.
