BIGGIN, (Warwickshire) near Newton, was anciently called Holme, because almost encompassed with water, it bel. soon after
the conquest, to the E. of Warwick, who enfeoffed the Camviles in a part of it; one of whom granted it to Henry de Rokeby:
And in the R. of Hen. II. it went to the canons of Leicester; but the mill here which was given by Rob. de Holme to Comb-
abbey, was, at the Ref. granted by Hen. VIII. to Thomas Brooks, and his heirs.
