Lordship of Wilmington
Wilmington is the name of a lordship or manor or reputed lordship or manor in Sellindge, Kent, to which the title Lord of Wilmington relates, which has some of the earliest examples of surviving Anglo-Saxon charters, and is particularly noted for the observation of changes to its placename during its early history. There is another Wilmington in Kent, located near Dartford.
==Initial grant==
In the year 700 C.E. Wihtred, King of Kent, granted four ploughlands to the Church of St. Mary at Lyminge. A copy of the charter was produced in the early eighth century. Both versions carry endorsements or alterations from the ninth century to accommodate changes to the placename.
In 700, the lands were described as ''Pleghelmestun'', 'the tun of Pleghelm', consisting of four ploughlands, and situated between the three boundaries of ''Bereueg'', ''Meguines paeth'' and ''Stretleg'', which were said to be well-known at the time. These have since been suggested by Gordon Ward.〔Ward, G. (1936) 'The Wilmington Charter of A.D. 700', ''Archaeologia Cantiana'', vol.8, pp.11-28.〕 This original, longer charter also included a grant of lands for the grazing of 300 sheep at ''Rumining seta'', in Romney Marsh. This is the first historical document, then, on the Romney Marshes and demonstrates the connection between landholdings in the uplands and the detached marsh lands. This remote marshland holding was argued by Gordon Ward to be Sellindge in the Marsh, latterly part of the parish of Dymchurch.〔
