Plumpton Park, Stow
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2023-05-18. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2023-05-18.
In the Gest, King Edward is exasperated at noticing the scarcity of deer in Plumpton Park after Robin and his men have been poaching there during their stay with the knight. We should almost certainly take this to be in Lancashire, but it could just possibly be some place King Edward is meant to have visited after his progress in Lancashire. As Lincolnshire is a neighbouring county it is conceivable, though not likely, that a Plumpton Park in that county may have been intended.
Two plots of land in Stow (c. 12 km NW of Lincoln), were known as Plumpton Park in 1839. The northernmost of these, the topic of this entry, was situated between the remnants of the moat in Stow Park and Stow Park Road, c. 90 m SW of St Mary's Church. The 1839 tithe award for the parish of 'Stowe' lists George Archer Bellwood as landowner and Thomas Page as occupier. 'Plumpton Parke' is listed under 'Name and description of lands and premises', state of cultivation was arable, and the area was 19 acres, 2 roods and 5 perches (79040.16 m2).
