In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Fulbrook like this:
FULBROOK, a quondam parish, now a hamlet of Hampton-Lucy parish, Warwick; 4 miles NNE of Strat-ford-on-Avon. Acres, 650. Pop., 76. Houses, 17. The manor belonged to the Duke of Bedford, third son of Henry IV; passed to the Comptons; belonged, in the time of Mary and till the beginning of the 18th century, to the Lucys; and passed to the Fullertons. A castle, of brick and stone, was built on it by the Duke of Bed-ford; and, becoming ruinous in the time of Henry VIII., was then taken down by Sir William Compton.
