  • By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-23. Revised by … Allusion IRHB comments According to W.C. Lefroy, who cites John Richard Walbran as his source, Walter Scott wrote these lines as an inscription for an arch which was to be built over Robin Hood's Well in the Fountains Abbey grounds. During a visit he was so fascinated with the story of Robin Hood's fight with, and subsequent ducking in the Skell by, the Curtal Friar within the abbey grounds close to the well that he suggested to Elizabeth Sophia Lawrence, the owner of the abbey grounds and ruins, that a cover or house be built over the well. This was done, but apparently without the inscription. Walbran (1817-69), among whose papers this story and the lines attributed to Scott are found, was a leading 19th century authority on Fountains Abbey, and the story may be true, but it is not mentioned in any of Scott's letters or by his chief biographer.

  • Approximate indication of the site of the Robin Hood. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-06-20. Revised by … The Robin Hood at 24 Church Lane (or 26 Church Street), St Giles, existed by 1750 and at least as late as 1858. Pigot's Directory of London (1839) lists the address as "26 Church Street, St Giles", while Robsons Public House & Publican Directory (1842) has "24 Church lane, Bloomsbury".

Both list James Mason under the address. Rather than the pub moving, this is in all probability due to a change in nomenclature and street layout. Both streets are included on John Rocque's 1746 map of London and Westminster (shown on this page).

  • Site of Robin Hood Yard, Holborn By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-06-16.

Lockie, John 1810a, s.n. RobinHood-Yard; Lockie, John 1813a, s.n. RobinHood-Yard. The earliest certain record of the place-name known to IRHB is John Rocque's 1746 Plan of London and Westminster.

  • The site of the Robin Hood, High Holborn By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-06-16. Revised by … The Robin Hood on High Holborn, known as the Old Robin Hood by 1797, is probably the Robin Hood referred to in a 1757 case at the Old Bailey. Since there were three Robin Hood pubs in Holborn – Robin Hood (High Holborn), Robin Hood (Holborn), Robin Hood (Leather Lane, Holborn) – it can be difficult to distinguish them in records like the Old Bailey case reports listed below, but the one we are concerned with here is most often identified as being on High Holborn, on Holborn Hill or just on Holborn. It also helps the identification when it is said to be near some street that is situated a little west of those that tend to be mentioned in connection with the two other pubs, but there are cases where identification must remain uncertain. Information on publicans, employees and family members gleaned from trade and street directories for the period 1805–1938 can be found …

The name is indicated on Google Earth; it is probably of modern date. Beacon Howes about 350 m west of the road were known as Robin Hood's Butts as early as 1682, but by 1828 this name had been transferred to three mounds lying 1.4 km to the north-west on Stoupe … antiquarian interests who knew that the nearby Beacon Howes had once been named after the outlaw thought this fact should be commemorated in the name of this little road.

  • Robin Hood Road, north of Brentwood in Essex. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-06-26. Revised by … Very likely Robin Hood Road just north of Brentwood, Essex, takes its name from the Robin Hood pub which was located at its northern end. The pub is still there but has been renamed the Robin. Robin Hood Road, about 200 m long and roughly the shape of an ice hockey stick, connects Ongar Road and Doddinghurst Road. It is not found on any of the 6" O.S. maps of the area available online at NLS; no doubt it was constructed sometime in the 20th century.
