By the 15th century, the manor at Walcott was called [[Freemasonry|"Masons"]]. The last member of the de Walcott family owned it in 1377. Subsequently it passed through the families of Edgefield, Rosceline, Malet, Ranulf, Pence and Enggain.
In 1538, [[Henry VIII|King Henry VIII]] acquired the Lordship as part of the [[Dissolution of the monasteries|Dissolution of the Monasteries]]. He seized church lands and titles across England.
