He held land at Dagworth passed from a Saxon who fought at Hastings. According to Domesday book entries by 1086 a William fitz Gross held Dagworth from Hugh de Montfort.
In 1088, Hugh de Montfort became a monk at the Abbey of Bec, and was later killed
in a duel with Wacheline de Ferrers. His son, Hugh, became Lord of Haughley, but was deprived of his lands in 1100 after favouring the cause of Robert against his brother Henry I, and departed on a crusade to the Holy Land.
