The Oglanders' interest in the village of St. Helens sprang from the purchase of half the manor of St. Helens, otherwise Eddington, from Henry Hollis in 1583. The other half of the manor remained as part of the estate of the Richards family of Yaverland until the end of the 19th century. This manor, which comprised most of St. Helens village, was quite distinct from the Priory manor of St. Helens, which consisted of the lands of the former Priory and never came into the hands of the Oglanders.
The smallholdings of Brook alias Broken alias Brokers and Verzeys at Tyne in Bembridge were purchased by William Hollis of Brading in 1480 and added to the estate.
