IRHB comments There are two Warks in Northumberland: Wark on Tweed and Wark on Tyne. Two of Robert Hode's co-jurors are surnamed "de Pressefenne", and there is a place named Pressen just 3 km SSW of Wark on Tweed, so the latter is most probably the locality intended.

Newton (Wakefield). By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2020-07-24. Revised by … Record [1323:] Nicholas de Bateley sues the said Robert [i.e. Robert Hode of Neuton] for taking a horse. Surety—Thomas Bille. Walker, John William 1945a, p. 28.
