We should almost certainly take this to be in Lancashire, but it could just possibly be some place King Edward was meant to haVe Visited after his progress in Lancashire, and in that case a possible locality is Plompton, c. 6 km ESE of Harrogate. There is no indication there was eVer a park there in the medieVal sense of a fenced-in area, but intriguingly there is or was a place named Loxley (first mentioned in 1402) in Plompton, and Loxley is a place-name connected with Robin Hood from at least as early as c. 1600 (in the Sloane MS Life of Robin Hood ). Plompton is first recorded, as "Plontone", in Domesday Book (1086). The meaning of the name is the usual one of "plum-tree farmstead". Smith, Albert Hugh …

  • NW to SE: Plompton, Loxley pasture, Loxley Bank, Lowsley Bank Field. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-09-06. ReVised by … The first known source to connect Robin Hood with a locality named Loxley is the Sloane MS Life of Robin Hood from c. 1600. Loxley near Sheffield is no doubt the most well-known locality with this name, but there are seVeral others, including one near Plompton in the West Riding, now North Yorkshire. This Loxley has not to my knowledge been connected with Robin Hood, but the fact that it is located in Plompton is interesting in the light of an allusion to Plumpton Park in the Gest of Robyn Hode. A. H. Smith cites the form "Loxlay" from a 1402 source and, from an 1817 source, "Louselay". Smith, Albert Hugh 1961a, pt. V, pp. 31. The tithe award for Plompton (1847) does not include a locality named Loxley or similar, but this could simply be because no tithes were payable for that particular piece of land.
