Note
The note entered on the repair gives a date of? 1402 which appears to be based on a patent roll reference which shows the king to have been at Windsor on 22-4 April 1402, the dating given in the response to this petition being 23 April, though the regnal year is missing, and it being given at Windsor (CPR 1401-5, pp.84, 85). The date does appear to be approximately right.
