Note (Additional information about the record)
- Dated on the repair to c. 1380, with reference to SC 8/128/6256, to which it was once attached. Unfortunately the petition is damaged and stained, and parts are difficult to read. However, it would seem to be subsequent to that petition, and suggests that Piers had trouble taking possession of the rights granted.
