The Scotney Castle is listed on the JP Editions site and the information is noted below.

The origin of the name Scotney was probably derived from the earliest recorded possessor of the manor, Lambert de Scoteni in 1137. In 1259, on very dubious authority, Walter de Scoteni was hanged at Winchester on suspicion of poisoning the Earl of Gloucester. As a result of this episode, or possibly the \"Barons\' War\", the de Scotenis disappear from the history leaving only their name.

The next notable date is in 1358 when Roger de Ashburnham succeeded to the estate and started building Scotney Castle between 1378-80. In 1377, the French had sacked Rye and Winchelsea and burned Hastings. This probably explains the decision to build Scotney\'s considerable defenses. After Roger de Ashburnham died in 1392, the castle passed through many hands until 1970 when it was bequeathed to the National Trust.
