  • History of Godshill
    HISTORY OF GODSHILL Godshill is one of the ancient parishes that existed before the compilation of the Domesday Book, the first recorded spelling being Godeshulle. The church was given by William Fitz- Osbern, who died in 1070, to the Abbey of Lyra in Normandy. In 1090, Richard de Redvers, Lord of the Island, gave the Manor of Appuldurcombe, which comprised the best part of the parish of Godshill, to the Abbey of Montebourg in Coutances, Normandy. It was originally a small priory of Benedictine monks, situated a short distance from the present ruin. The house and lands came to the Worsley family through the marriage of Anne, daughter of Sir John Leigh to Sir James Worsley. In 1557, Dame Anne willed 20 marks for erecting a free Grammar School in Godshill but this was never built and the old Chantry Priest’s House continued to be used. In 1824 the old school was pulled down, the Old Vicarage built in its place and the school rebuilt in its present position by Lord Yarborough and restored in 1848 as a misappropriated Grammar School under a scheme of the Charity Commissioners. The school records for the 1880s show that children paid between 1d and 4d per week to attend, depending upon the father’s occupation and were kept at home to work in the fields during harvest times. The headmaster was paid £13 per quarter. Stenbury Manor, originally surrounded by a moat was the seat of the de Aula family soon after the Norman Conquest. It was pulled down and rebuilt in the 16th century and the moat was filled in during 1727.
