Nature of request
Walter de Seint Aundreu states that William Tuchet, whose lands are seized into the king's hand on account of his forfeiture, was bound to the petitioner in an annuity of £8 and two robes to be received from his manor of Preston and Cowley in Buckinghamshire for the term of his life, and bound over his manor to distraint as a guarantee of this, into whosesoever hands it should fall; and he was seised of this annuity, as was found before the sheriff of Buckinghamshire when he took the manor into the king's hand because of William's forfeiture. Therefore he requests that it may continue to be paid to him.

Parl., vol I., dated to 1321-1322. PROME::Appendix of Unedited Petitions, 1307-1337, Rot. Parl., vol. I, pp. 387-415 confirms that they appear to belong to these years.
