Etymology
This perhaps takes its name from the family of Philip Hariot mentioned in SR (1327) under Newland, but the place is apparently referred to as Haryett in the 16th cent. (VCH iv. 125) and this looks as if, after all, it might not be manorial in origin. It may be a shortened form of OE heregeat-land (Thorpe 546), 'heriot-land.' The latter is certainly found in Haryetfeld in Ripple (1408EcclVar ).
