WARGRAVE, (Berkshire) formerly a market-town, has a ferry over the Thames, 2 m. S. of Henley, and 1 from the Bath road,
within the ancient bounds of Windsor-Forest. Q. Emma gave it to the Bp. of Winchester, and in that See it remained till
Dr. Poynet gave it to Edward VI. who granted it to Hen. Nevill. Q. Mary returned the grant, and gave it to Poynet's
successor, Dr. White; but Q. Eliz. restored it to Hen. Nevill, in whose posterity, the Nevills of Billingbear, it was not
very long ago.
