Yokota Manor - Yokota no Sho

Japanese: 横田荘 - よこたのしょう

A manor in Nita County, Izumo Province. It was located in the upper reaches of the Hii River in what is now Okuizumo Town, Shimane Prefecture. By the end of the Heian period, it was established as the territory of Yamashiro Iwashimizu Hachiman Shrine. In the early Kamakura period, an agreement was made between the Mitokoro clan, the land steward, and the Hojo clan to pay 50 kanmon each in iron tax and official fees in spring and autumn, but the land stewardship was not advanced, and the land stewardship was transferred to the Hojo clan. In 1317, a part of it became the imperial estate (the Imperial Court Estate and the Sento Estate), and in 1389, a part of it became the estate of Unryu-in Temple of Sennō-ji Temple in Kyoto. Around this time, Izumo Shugo Yamana Mitsuyuki seized Yokota Manor, but the family was wiped out in the Meitoku Rebellion, and during the Sengoku period, the Misawa clan built Fujigase Castle in the manor and strengthened their control over the area. The payment of annual taxes to the Imperial Palace continued until the Sengoku period.

出雲国仁多郡の荘園。現島根県奥出雲町の斐伊(ひい)川上流域にあった。平安末期までには山城石清水八幡宮領として成立。鎌倉初頭に地頭三処(みところ)氏との間で年貢鉄・公事料銭春秋各50貫文で地頭請(じとううけ)が行われたが未進が続き，地頭権は北条氏に移った。1317年一部が皇室領（内裏供御料所・仙洞料所），さらにその一部は1389年に京都泉涌(せんにゅう)寺雲竜(うんりゅう)院領となった。この頃出雲守護山名満幸が横田荘を押領したが，明徳(めいとく)の乱で一族は一掃され，戦国期には三沢氏が荘内に藤ヶ瀬城を築いて在地支配を強めた。なお御所への年貢貢進は戦国時代まで続いている。
