Long Lawford history
Long Lawford was mentioned in the Domesday Book referred to as Lelleford (the ford by the elders). By 1332 the name was recorded as Longa Lalleford. The monks of Pipewell were the lords of the manor for over 400 years from 1160, until the monasteries were dissolved. The Rouse-Boughton family established themselves at nearby Lawford Hall, and dominated the life of the village, until Sir Theodosius Boughton, the last male heir of the Boughtons was allegedly murdered there by his brother-in-law in 1780.
