In 976 King Edward granted the Eggbeer estate to a member of his court, his ´faithful Vassal´ Aelfsige. The estate was called ´Eald-land´ which can mean land which has been left untilled for some time and the farm was called Ecca´s farm.

By 1086 after the battle of Hastings it was called Eigebere and and was reported to have ´2 and one half virgates of land, enough for 6 ploughs. On the lords farm 2 ploughs; 2 slaves;1 virgate; 4 villeins and borders with 2 and a half ploughs and virgates, 10 acres of meadow; 30 acres of pasture;6 acres of woodland, 3 cattle, 4 pigs, 36 sheep, 4 goats, formerly worth 15 shillings now 20 shillings.´

Since then Eggbeer has evolved into a stunning wedding and music venue!
