Note (Additional information about the record)
- Rot. Parl. vol. IV, p.29b (no.6), assigns this petition to 1414, but a note on the guard suggests that it may be earlier, with reference to CCR 1402-5 p.39 (dated at Westminster, 26 January 1403). However, this petition seems to be from a later stage in the proceedings: there is now no question of recovery of the manor, but of compensation for the part of it given to the Carthusians.
