- Nature of request
- Wyther requests remedy and shows that the steward of the forest of Dean has made a quarry in his courtyard for the great works that he has had undertaken at the castle of St Briavels. Although this is to the king's profit and great convenience because the quarry is adjacent to the castle, where they used to get their stone two leagues from the castle, yet it is greatly to the damage and loss of Wyther, for he is deprived of the use of the buildings of his courtyard, which he has lost for two years or more and is still deprived of on a daily basis and for his gates and gardens and hedges which have been knocked down in the digging of the quarry.1)
- Nature of endorsement
- Let the treasurer be commanded to call the keeper and satisfy him and emend the damages which he has incurred.2) Let Botetourt, keeper of the king's castle of St Briavels be commanded to enquire through the oath of honest men etc. to what damage and nuisance Anketel has through that quarry; and he is to send the inquisition made on this to the treasurer at the exchequer one month after Michaelmas.
