Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition probably dates to before 1364 when the bishop discovered that between 1344 and 1364, when Pollesden was minister of Easton, 'masses and hospitality had been suspended for fifteen years; Edmund had wasted the priory's revenues, had built in it a stable for his horse, and departed to Hertford four years ago, with the common seal.'(VCH Wiltshire, vol. III, pp. 324-7).
