At the time of the Norman Conquest this parish was taxed under the
name of Tybesta, of which more under. At the Inquisition of the
Bishops of Lincoln and Winchester, in order to the Pope’s Annats,
1294, Ecclesia de Sancto Credo, in Decanatu de Powdre, was valued
4_l._ 13_s._ 4_d._ In Wolsey’s Inquisition, 1521, it was rated 13_l._
6_s._ 8_d._ The patronage in the king or duke of Cornwall, who endowed
it; the incumbent Crews; and the parish rated to the 4_s._ per pound

The great duchy manor of Ty-besta encloses almost the whole of this
parish; and there are yet extant in this manor the ruins of an old
chapel, called by the name of Tybesta. This manor is privileged with
the jurisdiction of a court leet within its precincts, and of the
court baron held for the hundred of Powdre, and hath stewards and
bailiffs to attend the service of both, and the royalties over the
river Vale.
