Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated to c. 1319 as the treasurer and barons of the Exchequer were ordered to cause the queen to have the fines made for entry by the tenants on this waste and others in the High Peak on 12 July in 1319, and it seems unlikely that the petition can be too distant in date from this (CCR 1318-23, p.148).
