Harry Stoke Farm
Ros Broomhead writes that Harry Stoke took its name from Harris de Filton who once owned it. (I am unable to find any reference to Harris de Filton. -Ed ) There were 3 manors in the parish of Stoke Gifford. The Giffards and Berkeleys held Stoke and Walls. Harry Stoke was a separate manor held by Aldred in Saxon times, Theobald in Norman times and the Blount and De Filton families in mediaeval times. The Berkeleys bought it in the l6th century.
