The tenant of the Staffords in 1235 and 1243 (fn. 168) was Richard Prescote, who had land at Whitehill and who held the Bletchingdon sergeanty. Richard Grenevile (see above) was mesne lord between Richard Prescote and Robert de Stafford. (fn. 169) In 1279 the fee was held by Hugh de Musgrave and his wife Maud. (fn. 170) The latter was in possession in 1311, but her son Thomas had succeeded her by 1316, (fn. 171) and in 1320 he purchased the Bletchingdon sergeanty. (fn. 172) His grandson William held the Stafford fee in 1346, (fn. 173) and in 1349 William's wife Elizabeth was given judgement in a suit against Roger de Stafford, (fn. 174) which may have been concerned with the overlordship, although there was no Roger in the direct line of the barony. (fn. 175) By 1387 the fee appears to have been acquired by Sir Richard Abberbury or Adderbury, (fn. 176) who in 1390 received a grant of free warren in his Bletchingdon lands. (fn. 177) Sir Richard was dead by 1401, (fn. 178) but he seems previously to have conveyed his Bletchingdon estate to Thomas Chaucer and other feoffees. (fn. 179) In 1428 the Stafford fee was held by Walter Cotton, (fn. 180) second husband of Joan Poure, whose first husband Roger Poure had died by 1408. (fn. 181) It is not clear who had purchased the estate, but it was subsequently held by Joan's son Roger (fn. 182) and followed the same descent as Poure's manor (see above).

In the time of King Edward I, the Hundred Rolls show that Hugh de Musgrave held one hide of land, for which he paid the king the ancient services of hydage and scutage. Originally these were military duties, but often the service was commuted into an annual payment. At this same time, Hugh held one virgate of the Abbot of Cirencester, the head of an Augustine monastery built in 1117 by Henry I. A Virgate is one yard of land for which Hugh paid the Abbot a nominal sum in return for common use.
