History:

At the end of the 13th Century the estate of Braybrook passed into the Latymer family. Thomas le Latymer on 30 January 1303 obtained a license to strengthen his manor house. An Abbey and Convent stood at Braybrook, and by 1334 Braybrooke Castle was enclosed by water used as a fishery. The 5th Lord Latmer was a supporter of Wycliffe and it was at Braybrook that the Lollards converted the bible into English.
