The Berystede site was originally part of the parish of Sunninghill, an area of great antiquity. There are a number of Bronze Age barrows in the district, and the course of the great Roman road, the Devil's Highway crosses the Bagshot-Sunninghill road near Little Stream. Sunninghill was first called a manor in 1362 when it was settled by John de Sunninghill and his wife, Joan. It was subsequently sold many times, being held, among others, by Elizabeth Woodville wife of Edward IV and the Abbots of Chertsey.
By the end of the 18th century, the original manor had been divided to provide land for the large houses which were clustering around fashionable Windsor. In the 19th century the Berystede site, shown only as rough pasture-land on contemporary maps, belonged to the Murray family, Lords Elibank, whose fine Victorian house, 'Elibank', was demolished in the 1950s. The name Elibank survives with a bungalow built on the site in the 1950s which was replaced by three modern houses in the 1990s.
