Brinscombe, Chapelcroft and East Membury are now adjoining farms but were probably originally one property, called Brinscombe. The original manor house probably stood on the site of Chapelcroft.
A chapel was licensed at Brinscombe by Bishop Lacy on 22nd September 1425. The site of the Chapel is presumed to have been at Chapelcroft (noted by Reichel).
