Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Map showing seats of the Beauchamp family in Worcestershire and Warwickshire. Elmley Castle (held from the Bishops of Worcester[1]) was their origin, pre-1133, and became the caput of their feudal barony of Salwarpe, inherited from Urse d'Abetot,[2] with the hereditary offices of Sheriff of Worcestershire and Constable of Worcester Castle. The senior line moved to Warwick Castle in 1268, when younger brothers of the first Beauchamp Earl of Warwick established junior branches at Powick and Holt, ancient possessions of the family.[3] Alcester and Bletsoe (in Bedfordshire) were later acquired by the Powick branch.[4] The title Baron Beauchamp "of Kidderminster" was acquired by the Holt branch
