Petitioners
Griffith (Gruffudd) Loid (Llwyd), knight.
Name(s)
Loid (Llwyd), Griffith (Gruffudd)
Addressees
King and council.
Occupation
knight
Nature of request
Loid requests that he not be disinherited from the advowson of the church of Llanrhystyd which is vacant and which has always belonged to his ancestors. He therefore requests to have associated with him Stipilton or Godard to take the assize against the bishop of St Davids who also claims the advowson.
Nature of endorsement
[On face:] Let Richard de Piwefesdon be associated with the justice of Wales.
Places mentioned
Llanrhystyd, Cardiganshire, [Wales]
North Wales.

Robert de Stipilton, justice
Hugh Godard, lieutenant of the justice in North Wales
Richard de Piwefesdon.
Note
Dated on the guard to 1293-1328, with reference to CPR 1292-1301, p. 405, a 1299 grant to David, bishop of St Davids, mentioning the king's grant to Thomas, bishop of St Davids, of the advowson of Llanrhystyd which had fallen into the king's hands by the forfeiture of its patron. Rees, Petitions Relating to Wales, pp. 276-7, dates the petition to 1299-1300, believing that it must have post-dated this grant. This petition is probably detached from SC 8/158/7854.
