IRHB comments

"[T]he tenement Robhood" is used almost as a place-name, but "the tenement Swiftes", "tenement Robetels" and others quoted later in this court roll entry are reminiscent of genitive constructions one might find in French, so presumably we should read "the tenement Robhood's".

The Robhoods of Walsham le Willows (Suffolk) occur frequently in the manor court rolls throughout the period covered (1316-99). For full discussion, genealogy and listings of records, see Robhoods of Walsham le Willows (record texts).
