==History== The name Colbury is derived from Middle English for "Cola's manor", and near Colbury is an estate called Langley which was held by "Cola the Hunter" in the Domesday Book of 1086. The manor of Colbury was given to the Abbot of Beaulieu by Robert de Punchardon sometime in the 13th century. A grant of free warren in the manor was made in 1359–60 to the Abbot and convent of Beaulieu. Successive abbots remained in possession of the manor until the dissolution of the abbey in April 1538, when it passed to the Crown. It was purchased in 1544 by John Mill and his son John. The elder John died in 1551 and the younger John was succeeded by his son Lewknor. He died in November 1587, and his son Lewknor died in the following month, leaving John his brother and heir. John was created a baronet in 1619, and the manor descended with the Mill Baronets until the death of the last baronet in 1835.
