- Nature of request
- Two separate pleadings on the face and dorse, apparently a fragment from a parliament roll.1) The bishop impleads the prior of Carlisle for the tithes from two newly assarted pieces of land in the forest of Inglewood called Lynthwayt and Kirkethwayt, which the bishop claims pertain to him as they are in the limits of his parish church of Aspatria, and which he and his predecessors had received from fields and woods, and which the prior by a deceitful suggestion, this year brought a writ of the king to the king's justice of the forest north of the Trent, and the bishop was unjustly despoiled of his tithes. The bishop petitions for an enquiry. [There then follows extensive details of the pleading which are incomplete in this fragment].2) Harlegh states that he has shown by his petition that whereas following the death of William de Breuse, bishop of Llandaff, the custody of the bishopric was entrusted to him, and as custodian he had wished to seize into the hand of the king, the manors of the bishop. However, several named individuals had seized several vills and manors to the prejudice of the crown. [There then follows extensive details of the pleading which are incomplete in this fragment].
