TATTENHOE, a parish in the hundred of COTTESLOE,
county of BUCKINGHAM, 3 miles (W.) from
Fenny-Stratford, containing 16 inhabitants. The living
is a perpetual curacy, holden by institution as a rectory,
in the archdeaconry of Buckingham, and diocese of
Lincoln, endowed with £800 royal bounty, and £200
parliamentary grant. W. S. Lowndes, Esq. was patron in
1813. The church was rebuilt in 1540, but the parish
containing only a few inhabitants, it fell into disuse and
desecration, until the rector of Shealey claimed the
tithes of the parish, in 1636, when it was consecrated
anew, and the living was presented to as a rectory.
