Payn de Turberville (also Payn III de Turberville ) († between 1319 and 1327) was an English nobleman.

Payn de Turberville came from the Turberville family , who had been among the most important vassals of the Lords of Glamorgan in South East Wales since the early 12th century . He was a son of Richard I de Turberville , who died in 1303 at the latest. From him he inherited Coity Castle and other possessions, including a. at Llanhari, Newcastle and Coychurch in the Welsh Marches .

Turberville confirmed the family donations in favor of Ogmore Priory , to whom he also donated a farm near Heronston . After the childless death of Gilbert de Clare , the last Lord of Glamorgan from the Clare family in 1314, the king transferred the administration of Glamorgan to him on July 8, 1315. Turberville replaced many of the previous officials with confidants of his. Among those fired by him was the Welsh nobleman Llywelyn Bren , which was the main reason for his rebellion in 1316. Due to the rebellion, the king withdrew the administration of Glamorgan from him on April 20, 1316. Turberville had the family seat Coity Castle expanded considerably.

Turberville married Gwenllian, daughter of Sir Richard Talbot of Richard's Castle . He had at least two sons and five daughters, including:

His main heir was Gilbert IV, while his younger son Richard II de Turberville (around 1320-around 1367) inherited about a third of his estates.
