Note (Additional information about the record)
- An earlier petition on this matter was evidently presented to the Hilary parliament of 1315, while the reference to articles promulgated at Northampton may well refer to the council meeting held there in July 1318, the same year in which Bardney received a new abbot, Richard of Gainsborough. As such, the petition probably dates to that year or shortly thereafter.
