Oyamada Manor - Oyamada no sho

Japanese: 小山田荘 - おやまだのしょう

A manor established in Musashi Province, stretching from Tama District to Tsuzuki District. The site is currently Kami Oyamada-cho and Shimo Oyamada-cho in Machida City, Tokyo, and the area including these places was the manor. Later it was called Oyamada Yasu. At the end of the Heian period, Chichibu Shigehiro's son Ariyoshi called himself Oyamada betto and is thought to have been the manor official of this manor. The Oyamada clan, descended from the Chichibu clan, fell into decline after the rebellion of their relative Hatakeyama Shigetada. In 1364, Kanto Kanrei Uesugi Noriharu ordered Kaji Sanenori to hand over half of Kurokawa-go (present-day Asao Ward, Kawasaki City) within the Oyamada manor to Oninin no Tsubone, and in 1367 Oninin no Tsubone donated half of Kurokawa-go to Obai-in Temple of Engaku-ji Temple in Kamakura. In 1404, the Kamakura government stopped demanding the construction of Rokusho Shrine (present-day Okunitama Shrine in Fuchu City) in Oyamadaho Yamazakigo (present-day Machida City) and half of Kurokawago in the same province, which were part of the Obaiin territory. In 1422, Kamakura kubo Ashikaga Mochiuji donated Imai Village in Yamazakigo to the main shrine of Oyama-ji Temple in Sagami (present-day Oyama Afuri Shrine in Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture). Other districts included in the manor (ho) were Shimoyabego (present-day Machida City) and Tsurumago (present-day Machida City, Sagamihara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, and Yamato City). The Oyamada clan, which relied on this manor from the Nanboku-cho period onwards, were a branch of the Kanto Kanrei Uesugi clan.

武蔵国多摩郡から都筑(つづき)郡にかけて成立した荘園。現在の東京都町田市上小山田町・下小山田町が遺称地で，同所を含む一帯が荘域。のち小山田保といった。平安末期の秩父重弘の子有重は小山田別当を称しており，当荘の荘官であったと考えられる。秩父氏流小山田氏は一族の畠山重忠の乱後に没落。1364年関東管領上杉憲春は小山田庄内黒河郷（現川崎市麻生区）半分を〈御仁々局〉に沙汰しつけるよう加治実規に命じ，御仁々局は1367年黒河郷半分を鎌倉円覚寺黄梅(おうばい)院に寄進。1404年鎌倉府は黄梅院領の小山田保山崎郷（現町田市），同保黒河郷半分への六所宮（現府中市大国魂神社）造営段銭催促を停止。鎌倉公方足利持氏は1422年山崎郷内今井村を相模大山寺本宮（現神奈川県伊勢原市大山阿夫利神社）に寄進。このほか荘（保）内には下矢部郷（現町田市），鶴間郷（現町田市・神奈川県相模原市・大和市）などの郷が含まれていた。なお南北朝期以降に当荘に依拠した小山田氏は関東管領上杉氏の庶流である。
