LOXLEY, (Warwickshire) on the S. E. side of Stratford upon Avon, was given to Worcester Ch. about 300 years before the Norman conquest. In the R. of Hen. III. the manor-house and great part of the estate was given to the canons of Kenilworth; but at the Diss. Hen. VIII. granted it to Tho. Cawarden, and his wife; on whose death, without issue, it reverted to the crown, and was granted to Rob. Croft, and in the R. of Q. Eliz. sold to Lodowick Grevil and Fran. Gill, of whom the latter released his right; and it was afterwards sold by the said Grevil to Edw. Nevil, Esq; but in the same R. it was in the possession of Will. Underhill; from whom it passed to Sir Simon Clarke of Salford; and from him to Edw. Nash of Stratford, who was a captain in Oliver's army; since which it came, by marriage of his grandaughter, to Franklyn Millar of HideHall in Hartfordshire.
