A horn said to have belonged to Robin Hood and hence known as 'Robin Hood's Horn' was preserved at Loxley, near Bramshall, Staffordshire, according to Francis Redfern's History of the Town of Uttoxeter (1865) and J. L. Randall's History of Meynell Hounds and Country, 1780 to 1901 (1901).

The horn allegedly belonged to the De Ferrers family of Chartley, then to the Loxley branch of that family, and thence, via marriage, to the family of Kynersley at Loxley. On the horn are or were the initials R. H. and, in a shield, three horse-shoes, which is said to indicate the ownership of Thomas de Ferrers of Loxley and probably a Robert 'who preceded him apparently towards the close of the twelfth century' (see 1865 Allusion cited below). Does this horn still exist? Template:PnItemQry
