Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is damaged in a very similar way to SC 8/172/8572 so that the two may be contemporary and from the same bundle, and this petition probably dates to 1327 as a patent roll entry appears to be a slightly later point in the same process, though this is difficult to be certain of because of the damage that the petition has suffered (CCR 1327-30, p.345).
