Gilles "the Engineer": Acquired property in Eccleston in 1309 from the Pulford's, his mother's family. Source:¬â€ http://www.chesterarchaeolsoc.org.uk/Eccleston2012_PublicReport.pdf
Giles L'Enginour, Richard's son, acquired property in Eccleston from the Pulfords in 1309 (ORMEROD 1882).¬â€ The heir of Giles, John de Belgreve,¬â€ was also granted land at Eccleston in 1340 (IBID). John married Joan de Pulford, who held large areas of land. She remarried later in life to Robert le Grosvenor and took much her estate lands with her (IBID). When Sir Robert Grosvenor married Joan de Pulford, he added large areas of land to an already vast portfolio around Eaton (NEWTON & LUMBY 2002). Eaton became the family seat of the Grosvenor when Ralph Grosvenor married Joan Eaton in 1345 (NEWTON & LUMBY 2002).
"Again, Mr. Helsby, in quoting from the Arley Charters, says in 4 Edw. II, Giles son of Richard L'Enginour obtained from Richard L'Enginour and Agnes his wife a message and seven Carucates of land in Eccleston, and in the same year (4 Edw. II) Giles 1/Enginour grants to his father, Master Richard Ingeniator and Agnes wife of the said Richard, their heirs and assigns "four quarters of pure wheat to be received each year out of the said Giles* Manor of Belgreve and his tenements in Eccleston," see Pita Rolls. Mr. Helsby also says It is very probable that the heir of this Giles was John de Belgreve, who first appears in a grant of 1st May, 1340. His son Thomas married Joan, sister and heir of John de Pulford. In 40 Edward III, Thomas, son of John de Belgreve, and Joan his wife, daughter of Robert de Pnlford, were Patrons of the Church of Pulford. Joan married as her second husband Sir Robert I- Grosvenor in before 1 Pi A TT Tn thtk Grosvenor nAdiorrm in making the fosse or ditch surrounding the town (traces of which are to be seen to this day) and also in laying out the streets of the town. These streets, in accordance with the system of town planning adopted by the engineers of the thirteenth century, are laid out in rectangular form somewhat like a chess board. This is shown in Speed's Map of Flintshire, published in 1610 (of which we give an illustration), before the sleighting of the castle by order of the Cromwellian Parliament on the 22nd December, 1646, after it had stood two sieges, being defended on both occasions by that great Flintshire Royalist, Colonel Roger Mostyn, and before its being, comparatively recently, cut up and divided on the making of the Chester and Holyhead Railway. Professor P. Abercrombie, of Liverpool, in a recent Report on Town-planning, says "There is no town in this country that is of greater interest to the student of town planning than Flint. Laid out by Edward I. in 1277 as an appendage to his mighty Castle, it has preserved its mediaeval plan almost intact One realises that here a vigorous and artistic mind has been at work."
