There is a record of a manor and farm estate at Dundridge (orig. Dunryge) dating to 12th century, though possibly on the site of an earlier Saxon settlement.[1] It was part of the lands granted to Missenden Abbey and the tenant was Henry de Crokesley. Subsequently the manor became under the control of the Montagu family and after it came into the possession of Margaret Pole, 8th Countess of Salisbury who held the lands until Henry VIII's time seized them from the Abbey and meanwhile also had Margaret Pole beheaded. In 1545, Henry granted Dundridge to Sir John Baldwin who was Chief Justice of the Common Pleas. Dundridge remained in the ownership of the Baldwin family until 1768, when the fortunes of the Baldwins waned and the house and manor lands were sold in lots. Dundridge Manor house is recorded to have fallen into disrepair at the time it was disposed of to the Darvill (Darell) family. During the 19th century it passed through marriage to the Jeffrey family. The Rev. John Jeffrey, rector of Barnes, inherited it. After his death, in 1900, the manor house and part of the estate was sold to Robert Green. The Rodwell family lived there, breeding pheasant, until the Second World War when forced by the War Agricultural Executive Committee to relinquish the farm estate. It was purchased by the Matthews family who have occupied it since then.[5]

Sylvester Baldwin was born at Dundridge manor around 1602. He subsequently became the tenant of Chapel Farm (see Daniel Bacheler below), part of the Dundridge estate. In 1638 Sylvester Baldwin his wife and children, set sail for New England on the ship Martin. Though Sylvester did not survive the journey, the Baldwin family successfully settled in the newly established New Haven Colony on land adjacent to the present day Milford, Connecticut, from where it spread out across the continent.
