Note (Additional information about the record)
- This warrant, although damaged and incomplete, is clearly associated with the two writs at SC 8/221/11031-2, which were almost certainly produced in response to it. The date of the warrant is now missing, but the writs were produced on 23 November 1397, and Richard II is known to have been at Woodstock around that time.
