Reference
SC 8/72/3586
Date
[1327]
Description
Petitioners
Nicholas de Stotevile (Stuteville).
Name(s)
de Stotevile (Stuteville), Nicholas
Addressees
King and council.
Places mentioned
Barton in Fabis, Nottinghamshire
Bradmore, Nottinghamshire.
Nature of request
Stoteville requests that he is able to have the lands and tenements in Barton and Bradmore which are in the king's hand because the king's father took them as Stotevile was of the power of the king of France.
Nature of endorsement
He should sue in Chancery to be certified of the cause of the taking, and if it is by such a cause and for no other reason, he should have delivery.
Note
The petition dates to 1327 as a writ was issued for the delivery of the lands to the petitioner on 14 January 1328, and it seems unlikely that the petition could have been presented and answered in such a way if the petition had also been presented in 1328 (CCR 1327-30, p.195).
