From "Transactions of the Essex Archaeological Society", Vol I, Colchester, pp 251-
273, The History of the Barrington Family, at 
www.southfrm.demon.co.uk/Genealogy/Barr.html:

Roger de Quency Earl of Winchester granted and confirmed to Nicholas de Barenton 
and to Agnes his wife, and to his heirs by her, all the land they held of this fee in the 
town of Cington in Wiltonshire; to be held freely from all other secular services and 
demands, with warranty against all men for ever: for which grant the said Nicholas 
gave one hundred shillings. This confirmation was dated London, Thursday next 
before the Feast of St. Peter in Cathedra, in the 43rd year of King Henry son of King 
John.

In the 47th year of the same King, Agnes de Barenton, sometime wife of Nicholas de 
Barenton, made an agreement with Peter Nicholas and John Townsend (ad finem 
Villae) Walter Young, and John Kabe, granting to them, to have and to hold, for six 
years all her lands, meadows and pastures, with pannage of hogs, and all cows and 
other animals to her lands in the name of the pastures belonging, situated in the Vill of 
Compton, rendering to her, or to her attorney, at Triplow at two terms of the year, nine 
marks and a half, she allowing to the tenants, their reasonable expenses for bringing 
the rent to Triplow. The tenants were bound to keep all the buildings in repair, 
excepting the "Solar" which was nearly a ruin--'excepto solario quod minatur ruinam." 
(The solar is an upper chamber.) It would seem from the deed and one from Roger de 
Quency that Cington and Compton in Wiltshire came to this Lady Agnes. She must 
have been a woman of rank, as she is always named Lady, and as her husband was 
not a Knight, she was probably the widow of one. She was the daughter of William 
Chetwynd. She had three brothers, William, John and Philip, whose names are found 
as witnesses to deeds and were all Knights. It is stated she had a fourth brother, 
Adam, also a Knight, and that she inherited property from an uncle, Sir William Lovell, 
but of these last named there is not any trace from any deed or paper remaining.

Barrington Hall at Triplow in Cambridgeshire was settled by Sir Nicholas on his son 
Nicholas at his marriage to Agnes, and there, after her husbands death, she continued 
to reside.
