It is impossible to say if this is a place-name or a manorial name derived from one of the other West Country Hoptons .In favour of the latter view is the fact that in 1297 there was a Hoptonsbrugg near Sandlin Fm (v. infra 207), VCH iv. 102, n. 8, as also the name Ricardus de Hopton de Leigh (1308FF ).
