Wada-so - Wata no Sho

Japanese: 輪田荘 - わたのしょう

A manor in Yatabe County, Settsu Province. It is also called Hyogo Wada Manor. It is centered around Wadamisaki in Hyogo Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture. In the 1071 Dajokanfu (Kujo Family Documents), it appears that the family land of Princess Masako was exempt from 5 cho of main land and miscellaneous duties for 5 shouji and 10 kyounin. In 1105, Tachibana Tsuneto donated 30 cho of Ishigane in Uji Village to Fujiwara no Michinaga's great-grandson Munemichi, and these were later inherited by the Kujo family. When the power of the Taira clan extended to Yatabe County, it was seized by neighboring Taira manors, but after the fall of the Taira clan, Kujo Kanezane reorganized the management and tried to eliminate all imports, making it the succession of the entire Kujo family. In the 1204 Kujo Kanezane document, it is stated that the manor, which was the property of Komyoin (Hossho-ji Temple, currently Higashiyama Ward and Fushimi Ward, Kyoto City), was handed over to his daughter, Gishumon-in. The position of lord was divided among his children, and at the end of the 13th century, the eastern one was Kyogoku no Tsubone and the western one was the wife of Fujiwara no Yoshikane. In 1298, the western one became a land steward, but there were constant disputes over matters such as taxes, and the eastern one was in a similar situation, leading to the division of the land into Shimoji. After the Genkō Rebellion, Akamatsu Norisuke invaded the western one and forced his control over the whole area, which led to continued disputes. After the Kakitsu Rebellion, Hyogo Manor, which was the Akamatsu clan's territory, became the Shogun's land, and the western part of this manor was either confused with this or became a land. After the Onin and Bunmei Wars, this manor became unknown.

摂津国八部(やたべ)郡にあった荘園。兵庫輪田荘とも。兵庫県神戸市兵庫区の和田岬を中心に展開する。1071年の太政官符（九条家文書）に正子内親王家領として本免田５町と荘司５人・寄人10人の雑役免とみえる。1105年橘経遠が宇治村の石重名30町を藤原道長の曾孫宗通に寄進し，のちこれらが九条家に伝領された。平家の勢力が八部郡に及ぶと近隣の平家領荘園に押領されが，平家没落後九条兼実は経営を立て直して一円不輸化を図り，九条家一流の相承とした。1204年の九条兼実置文では光明院（法性(ほっしょう)寺，現京都市東山区・伏見区）領であった当荘を娘の宜秋門院に譲っている。領家職は子女に分割して与えられ，13世紀末には東方は京極局，西方は藤原良兼の妻であった。1298年西方は地頭請所となったが年貢の進貢などを巡り紛争が絶えず，東方も同様の状態で下地中分に至った。元弘の乱後は赤松範資が西方に侵入し一円支配を強行したため相論が続いた。嘉吉の乱後に赤松氏の所領である兵庫荘が将軍家料所となり，当荘西方も混同されたか料所とされた。応仁・文明の乱後には当荘は不知行になっている。
