de Reddyngs (Reading), Richard
Addressees
King and council.
Nature of request
Reddyngs requests that he is able to be served of the sustenance that the king granted him for his long service in Scotland in the company of Montibus by letters to the prior and convent of Durham, as they do not wish to provide it. He has lost lands and tenements and advancement of Holy Church for the salvation of the castle of Edinburgh.

Edinburgh, [Midlothian, Scotland]
Durham, [County Durham].
People mentioned
Ebulo de Muntz (Montibus)

Note
The petition is dated to c. 1318, as it seems likely that the petitioner failed to find his sustenance at Durham Priory and was subsequently sent to Revesby Abbey (CCR. 1318-23, pp.212, 565). It is possible that this petition is part of the group of petitions that formed an original file at the end of file 318 dating to 1318-1319.
