Manors of ASTON CLINTON,

Another manor, known as VACHES MANOR, in Aston Clinton, appears to have been 
held by Richard de Turri in the early part of the 13th century. He obtained licence to 
build a chapel in his land in Aston from Bishop Grosteste (1235-53). He died before 
1271, but his manor did not pass to his son and heir Richard, but to Richard de la 
Vache. The latter obtained a quitclaim from the younger deTurri, who acknowledged 
the manor to be the right of Richard de la Vache. There were suits between them as 
to land and messuages in Aston Clinton, but Richard de la Vache remained in 
undisturbed possession of the manor. Before 1302-3 he was succeeded by Matthew 
de la Vache, who was followed by another Richard de la Vache, his son. The latter 
obtained a grant of free warren in his demesne lands in Aston Clinton in 1364. He was 
succeeded by his son Philip de la Vache, who was certified of full age in 1371. Philip 
was made a knight of the Garter, receiving the honour after February 1398-9. He was 
keeper of the royal park at Chiltern Langley, and was a knight of the shire in the 
Parliament of 1387. He married Elizabeth daughter of Sir Lewis Clifford, and various 
settlements were made of Vaches Manor which appears to have been held by a John 
de la Vache and his wife Elizabeth for life. Philip also granted it to several feoffees, 
presumably to the use, after his own death, of his wife and heir. Sir Philip de la Vache 
died in 1407 or 1408, and his widow held the manor for life in 1410; From: 'The
