History
At the publication of the Domesday Book in 1086, (Great) Packington and Little Packington were recorded as Patitone, where the first t is a mistake for c, i.e. Pacitone.[2] The settlement of 15 households was within the hundred of Coleshill in Warwickshire.[3] The tenant-in-chief was Thorkil of Warwick, who held land and a number of manors in Warwickshire. His descendants are one of only three families that can document their lineage in the male line back to Anglo-Saxon times. The hundred was first called by its present name of Hemlingford Hundred in the Pipe Roll of 8 Henry II (1161–62), presumedly after the site of the hundred court had been relocated.
