History
Winsor is first recorded as Windesore in 1167, and Windlesore in 1222.[1] The name apparently derives from "windels-ora" meaning "winch on a bank".[1] In the 13th century there was an estate at Winsor and at nearby Cadnam which belonged to the nuns of Amesbury, who in 1286 obtained a grant of free warren in both estates.[2] About the same time a second estate at Winsor was held by the Abbot of Netley, which probably formed a part of the abbot's estate at Totton.[2] Some time after the Dissolution these lands passed to the Paulets, becoming part of the Paultons estate.[2] A third manor at Winsor is mentioned in the 14th century when it formed part of the main manor of Eling.[2] It was in the hands of the Bishop of Winchester in 1385, when it was granted with the manor of Eling to Winchester College.[2]
