Henry VIII created the two royal parks in the eastern two parishes - Bushy Park and Hampton Court Park - and set up hunting rights and similar privileges across much of the hundred. By the 19th century all the commons were enclosed and only manor with its lands largely undivided was Hampton Court.

Spelthorne was a hundred (dated subdivision) of the historic county of Middlesex, England. It contained these parishes and settlements[5] :

  • Ashford
  • East Bedfont
    • The hamlet of Hatton
  • Feltham
  • Hampton
    • The settlement of Hampton Hill developed in the 19th century
  • Hampton Wick
  • Hanworth
  • Laleham
  • Littleton since the 1970s contiguous with Shepperton
    • The chapelry of Astleham/Aslam. In the 1930s replaced with the Queen Mary Reservoir.
  • Shepperton
  • Staines
  • Stanwell
    • The hamlet of Stanwell Moor, since the 20th century a village without a church
  • Sunbury
    • The hamlet of Upper Halliford, today a village, joined postally with Shepperton
    • The hamlet of Charlton, joined postally with Shepperton
  • Teddington
    • Part of the neighbourhood of Fulwell, once a single-ownership estate, by consensus spreading south to around to its train station

The present-day district of Spelthorne in Surrey amounts to about 59% of the hundred.[6][2] The eastern parts since 1965 form parts of the London boroughs of Hounslow and Richmond upon Thames.

Demography

A decennial table for each parish is published in the Victoria County History series. By 1891 the Hundred was legally moribund, having already been de facto moribund. The population of the north-eastern six parishes has been greater than the south-west seven since an unknowable point in time between the 1831 and 1841 censuses. A summary is:[2]

Area nameAcreage1801 population1821 population1841 population1861 population1881 population1901 population
Seven parishes becoming in 1965 part of Surrey13,73356046720791591521452020888
Six parishes becoming in 1965 part of London9,653462466978672102881894032280
Total (Spelthorne Hundred)23,386102881341716587194403346053168

Relative to the county as a whole, the hundred (one of six) had 12.9% of its 181,320 acres. In 1801 it had 1.3% of the 818,129 people recorded as living in Middlesex; in 1901 it had 1.6% of the 3,585,323 people stated in the census to be living in the county (including in the County of London parts which once lay in Middlesex).[2]
