Spernall
Spernall is a remote village north of Alcester in the Parish of Oldberrow, Morton Bagot, and Spernall, in the Stratford on Avon District of Warwickshire, England. In 2001 it had a population of 153. It is situated on the banks of the small River Arrow, the name meaning Spera's border (of his property).〔Warwickshire place names, W.H.Duignan 1912〕 Early forms of the name are Spernore.〔Domesday Book for Warwickshire, Phillimore edited by John Morris ISBN 0-85033-141-2〕 and Spernoure in the 1327 Subsidy Roll.〔Warwickshire People and Places, John Burman, 1936〕 The village consists only of the church and rectory and a few scattered farms and cottages. At some time between 1195 and 1361 the parish was largely depopulated by pestilence, so that many of the villein tenements, which had hitherto accounted for almost the whole population, came into the hands of freemen. This may well refer to the Black Death; the priest at Spernall, Nicholas atte Yate, died in 1349 and there was another institution in 1351.〔''The Antiquities of Warwickshire'', William Dugdale, 1656〕
In the 17th century the population seems to have mainly consisted of substantial farmers, for in 1625 it is described as a place with 'few or no poor at all in it and many wealthy inhabitants', and the Hearth Tax returns (1662–74) show the high average of about 2.5 hearths per house.〔A History of the County of Warwick: Volume 3: Barlichway hundred (1945) ()〕 It is now part of the parish of Morton Bagot, Oldberrow and Spernall which in 2001 had a population of 153.
