It was a hamlet of Monks Kirby and was site of a watermill, a sizeable village and a chapel. The manor of Cestersover was held by the Waver family from at least the Norman Conquest; and the name of the village derives from Thester Wara .
The village was abandoned around 1467 when Henry Waver, who had made his fortune as a London draper was granted permission to rebuild the ancient manor with turrets and crenelations and to enclose 500 acres of land.
