- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-28. Revised by … The Robin Hood Panto was one of the shows offered at the Brighton Aquarium according to the first of the picture postcards below. The card is undated, but one specimen is postmarked Oct. 18, 1906. Designed by acclaimed architect and pier builder Eugenius Birch (1818-84), the Brighton Aquarium opened in august 1872. Apart from the aquarium, the complex contained a reading room, restaurant and conservatory. In a couple of years a roof terrace garden, roller skating rink, smoking room and music conservatory had been added. During the 1890's the establishment hosted events such as organ recitals, lectures, concerts and plays. But there was also a good deal of light entertainment, for the acts booked during the period c. 1873-88 included comedians, singers, minstrels, magicians, acrobats, clowns, ventriloquists, puppeteers, living statuary, animal acts, swimmers, and skaters.

- German publisher of postcards. Metro Postcard lists the company as "St.&Co.D.", locating it in Dresden, Saxony. The logo on the company's postcards is a triangular frame around "St&C o " above "D". This has sometimes been misinterpreted as "St.D & Co.". On the assumption that the "D" stands for "Dresden", the company is here listed as "Stengel and Co", while the form used in bibliographical entries of its postcards is "St. & Co."

- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-01-10. Revised by … Papplewick Close, a cul-de sac in Tuckswood, may be regarded as the extension of Friar Tuck Road on the southern side of Robin Hood Road. This short street is named after Papplewick in Nottinghamshire, the home of Maudlin, a witch in Ben Jonson's Robin Hood-themed drama The Sad Shepherd. This rather slender connection with Robin Hood is reinforced locally – in Papplewick, not necessarily in Papplewick Close – by the claim that Allen a Dale was married or buried (or both) in Papplewick. With so many streets in the Tuckswood neighbourhood to be given Robin Hood-inspired names, imagination was given a free rein.

- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-01-07. Revised by … Huntingdon, formerly the county town of Huntingdonshire, now relegated to the status of a market town in Cambridgeshire, does not in itself have any clear connection with the outlaw, but from c. 1598 on Robin Hood has been frequently portrayed as earl of Huntingdon. He was endowed with this title by minor Elizabethan dramatists. More recently the idea has been especially popular with film makers. A tragedy with a lowborn criminal as its hero would not have sat well with Elizabethan theatre audiences, at least not with those segments who could afford the more expensive admission fees, so when it was decided that a proper Robin Hood tragedy must be written and staged, it was probably inevitable that the yeoman hero must have some title foisted on him. This was not entirely without precedent, for Richard Grafton in 1568 claimed to have read "in an olde an auncient Pamphlet" that Robin Hood "discended of a noble parentage: or …5 KB (741 words) - 00:29, 6 January 2021

- The former Robin Hood. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-06-13. Revised by … The Robin Hood Inn in Bridport closed in 1961, but the name is still used locally to refer to the building, which became a private residence shortly after the pub closed. Closed Pubs: Dorset: Bridport: Robin Hood. A.D. Mills in the English Place-Name Society's fourth volume on Dorset cites Kelly's Directory of 1939 as source and also, oddly enough, refers to a typescript calendar of records of Bridport for mention of a Robin Hood ale in a 1555 record. Mills, A David 1977a, pt. IV, p.360; and pt. I, pp. xiii, xx, for source references. It would have been somewhat remarkable if there had been any direct causal relationship between a feast arranged to bolster parish funds in 1555 and the existence of a public house first recorded in 1939, and there is in fact no reason to think that this was the case. Mills, writing in 2010, might have turned to the Records of Early English Drama volume on Dorset, …4 KB (599 words) - 00:54, 6 January 2021
