Arms of de Deene of Deene, Northamptonshire: Argent, a fess dancettée gules in chief three crescents of the last. (Burke, 1884, p.1041, given as 2nd quartering of "Tyndale" of Deene and Hockwoold)

The manor of Deene was acquired in about 1375 by w:John Tyndale (d.1413), MP for Northamptonshire, son and heir of William Tyndale of Tansover, Northamptonshire, by his wife Elizabeth. John Tyndale married firstly (c.1375) Katherine Zouche, the widow of Sir Henry Deene of Deene. Through his first wife, Katherine Zouche, who seems to have been related to the Lords Zouche of Harringworth, John Tyndale gained possession of the manors of Deene and Deenthorpe, for although she initially held them only as a dower from her previous marriage, her stepson was prepared to let her and Tyndale buy the reversionary interest, which they did in about 1375. (Source: biog of TYNDALE, John (d.1413), of Deene, Northants in History of Parliament: the House of Commons 1386-1421, ed. J.S. Roskell, L. Clark, C. Rawcliffe., 1993[1]). The Deene arms have been quartered with those of Tyndall ever since and were adopted as the only arms of the Tindal branch of the family from the 17th century (per w:Tyndall)

Deene St Peter, a parish, in the union of Oundle, hundred of Corby, N. division of the county of Northampton, now site of Deene Park, a seat of the Brudenell family since 1514. Before the Norman Conquest and for 150 years afterwards the Manor of Deene belonged to the Abbey of Westminster and was used occasionally by the Abbot. In about 1215 it was let for the first time to Sir Ivo de Deene for the annual rent of £18 and an obligation to provide hospitality once a year for the Abbot and his household an agreement which continued unaltered for 750 years. Various families, including the Colets and the Lyttons leased the property until it was acquired in 1514 by Sir Robert Brudenell (1461-1531), later Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas, which remained in the family for many generations.
