Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition has been dated to the period c. 1292-c. 1295 as the petition clearly refers to Hugh de Cressingham and an eyre probably in Cumberland, and therefore is likely to refer to the eyre of 1292-4 (Records of the General Eyre, pp.170-2). Cressingham's circuit took in Cumberland in late 1292 and early 1293. The date range has been adopted as the actual contents of the petitions are unclear.
