The lower land at Mappleton and Rolston was used as common meadow and pasture and the higher for the open fields. At Great and Little Cowden lower land bordering Cowden drain was probably also used as grassland. Little Cowden was inclosed early, Great Cowden in 1772, Mappleton in 1849, and Rolston in 1860.
One moiety was sold by Slaney to John Thorpe in 1599 and held in turn by Richard Thorpe (d. 1613) and his son John (d. 1640). John left the moiety to his mother Mary Hall for life, with remainder to his half-brother Francis Hall. (fn. 116) From Hall (d. by 1693) the share passed to his widow Mary and son Thomas. Thomas (d. by 1739) was succeeded by his brother Benjamin and then by another brother Joseph (d. by 1755), who devised it to his nephew Thomas Plumer. (fn. 117) Plumer (d. by 1784) was succeeded by his son Hall Plumer, who sold the share in 1786 to Oliver Beckett. (fn. 118) Beckett was dead in 1813, when his assignees in bankruptcy and the mortgagees sold the moiety to Thomas Duesbery, (fn. 119) who bought the other moiety.
ECONOMIC HISTORY Common lands and inclosure. Mappleton, Great Cowden, Little Cowden, and Rolston each had their own commonable lands.
There were half a dozen farms at Mappleton in the 19th and earlier 20th century, of which three in 1851 and two in the 1920s and 1930s were of 150 a. or more. Little Cowden then and earlier lay in two large farms, but Great Cowden was divided into c. 10 mostly smaller holdings. At Rolston there were about four farmers, two of whom in 1851 and one in 1937 had larger holdings. (fn. 218) In 1898 a dozen smallholdings of ¼ a. to 3 a. lay south of Mappleton village, mostly beside the main road, (fn. 219) and a smallholder was later recorded in the parish. One or two cowkeepers or dairymen worked at Great Cowden and Rolston in the late 19th century and the 20th century, (fn. 220) and there were poultry farms at Rolston and Mappleton from the 1920s. In 1987 of 15 holdings returned for Mappleton civil parish, three were of 100–199 ha. (247–492 a.), two of 50–99 ha. (124–245 a.), five of 10–49 ha. (25–121 a.), and five of under 10 ha. There were then nearly 38,000 fowls, almost 7,000 pigs, and about 500 each of cattle and sheep in Mappleton. (fn. 221) Many pigs were kept in Mappleton and the Cowdens in 1992.
LITTLE COWDEN. Until it was lost to the sea in the 16th or 17th century, there was a church at Little Cowden, the dedication being given variously as ST. JOHN THE EVANGELIST and ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST. (fn. 300) It was perhaps originally a chapel of either Aldbrough or Mappleton, both of which were given to Aumale abbey with their dependencies. The church was sometimes called a chapel, and in the 15th century it was said to be in Aldbrough parish; (fn. 301) by 1291, moreover, Aumale abbey had a pension from it, payable to the abbey's cell, Burstall priory (in Skeffling), and the prior of Burstall presented c. 1310. (fn. 302) The Crown presented in 1349, presumably because of the war with France. A share in the patronage, described as the advowson but possibly rather the right of nomination, had belonged to the lord of the manor, Ralph of Goxhill (d. by 1294), (fn. 303) and his heirs, the Despensers, successfully claimed the patronage from the Crown in the mid 14th century, when the abbey's right was in abeyance. In 1396 Aumale abbey sold the advowson and the pension to Kirkstall abbey, (fn. 304) but Robert Despenser nevertheless presented in 1408. Kirkstall presented from 1420 until the Dissolution, when the Despensers' heirs, the Wentworths, (fn. 305) evidently maintained their right to present. The advowson later descended with the manor, (fn. 306) but the last presentations were made by the Crown, in 1608 by lapse (fn. 307) and in 1639 as guardian of John Bernard.
There was a school at Mappleton in the mid 17th century and c. 1800. (fn. 327) In 1818 the parish clerk kept a school in which c. 20 children were supported by Susannah Brough, (fn. 328) and it was probably for his school that a schoolhouse was built north of the church in 1820. (fn. 329) In 1833 there were 51 pupils, 21 paid for by subscription and the rest by their parents; two other schools were then recorded in Mappleton, both newly opened and together attended by 24 children. (fn. 330) It was probably the school of 1820 which was later recorded as a Church school; it was attended by 30–40 boys and girls in 1865 and on inspection day in 1871 by 56 children, including infants and children from the Cowdens. (fn. 331) In 1873 a new school was built at the junction of the street and Cliff Lane, on land given by Florence Whyte. (fn. 332) By 1872 the school's income included £6 6s. a year from a charity established by Mrs. Gee, probably Hannah Gee (d. 1826), an annual government grant was received from 1872–3, and the Ecclesiastical Commissioners had given £3 a year from the rectory by 1889. (fn. 333) Average attendance at the school, which also took private pupils, was usually 20–30 between 1906 and 1938, but only 16 in 1918–19 and 37 in 1926–7. (fn. 334) The school was closed in 1947 and its c. 15 pupils transferred to Hornsea County School. (fn. 335) The building was sold in 1950 (fn. 336) and was used as a house in 1992.
