History	Descent of manor At the time of the Domesday survey Yeldersley was one of the manors which belonged to Henry de Ferrers. It was held by Cole, whose son conveyed it to Sewal de Monjoy. It remained in that family for several generations before passing to the Ireland family in the early years of the reign of King Edward III (1327-1377). It remained with the Ireland family into the reign of King Henry VII (1485-1509), but became the property of the Montgomery family at about that time. The manor passed to the Vernons, and then to the Meynells, who appear to have become lords of it in the early 18th century.
