Description
Estate of Parlaunt Manor owes its origin to the formation of a new park called at first Langley New Park (mentioned in 1280) and later Parlaunt Park (B1).
There was a park here in 1523, called 'Plaunte or new park', to which Henry VIII appointed Henry Norris as keeper. This may have been the same 'new park' as the one referred to in 1202 (B5).
NGR to Parlaunt Park Farm.
