Hatsukura-so

Japanese: 初倉荘 - はつくらのしょう

This manor was located in Haibara County, Totomi Province, on the border with Suruga Province. It was located on the left bank of the downstream Oi River, from present-day Shimada City, Shizuoka Prefecture, to Yoshida Town and Oigawa Town (present-day Yaizu City). It was originally imperial property. In 1299, it was donated to Nanzenji Temple in Kyoto by Emperor Kameyama, and remained under Nanzenji's ownership until the Sengoku period. By the late 14th century, development had progressed with the construction of salt banks in a ring-shaped structure, and new villages were formed, but management of the manor by Nanzenji Temple was unstable, as it was requested by the daikan (deputy governor) to the shugo. From the late 15th century onwards, the Imagawa clan, the shugo of Suruga, repeatedly invaded, and the struggle for tax reductions became more active, and with the fall of the Shiba clan, the shugo of Totomi, Nanzenji Temple's control fell away.

駿河国との国境にある遠江国榛原(はいばら)郡の荘園。現静岡県島田市から吉田町・大井川町（現・焼津市）にかけた大井川下流左岸にあった。初め皇室領。1299年亀山上皇から京都南禅寺に寄進され，以後戦国時代まで南禅寺領。14世紀後半ころまでに輪中(わじゅう)型の塩堤の築調などによって開発が進展し，新村落も形成されたが，南禅寺の荘経営は守護被官による代官請のため不安定であった。15世紀後半以降は駿河守護今川氏の侵入が繰り返され，年貢減免闘争も活発化し，遠江守護斯波(しば)氏の没落とともに南禅寺の支配は及ばなくなった。
