Abney belonged to William Peveril at Domesday, having been held by Swain before 1066. It is said later to have belonged to the Albeney or Albini family. Half of the manor was given to Rufford Abbey in 1200, and seems to have become the property known as Abney Grange. In 1317 the lord of the manor was Robert Archer. In 1504 Nicholas Bagshaw was lord of the manor. In 1594 it was purchased by the Bradshaw family, who owned it until the mid-18th century, when it passed by marriage to the Galliard family (of Edmonton, Middlesex). It then passed to Charles Bowles (of East Sheen, Surrey) in 1789, whose son, Humphrey Bowles, was lord from 1795 to 1859. It remained with the Bowles family, Humphrey Charles Bradshaw Bowles being said to be lord in 1941.
