  • West Tisted. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2015-08-30. Revised by … The Records show two Robert le Hods resident and/or holding land in the Selborne area. The first, who figures as witness to several charters, had died by December 1236, See page named '1235 - Robert Lohod witness to charter '. when Joan, his widow, granted land and an advowson in West Tisted, Hampshire, to the prior and convent of Selborne. The surname is variously given as 'le Hote', 'Lohade', 'Lohod', 'Lohot', 'le Hod', 'le Hout' and (in the latest record, 1265) 'Lood'. It is perhaps natural to think that the Sir Robert le Hod who figures in 1240 was the son of the deceased man whose name appears slightly earlier in so many different spellings, but we cannot be certain of this unless further evidence comes to light. Robert le Hod of 1240 is styled 'Sir' and is explicitly referred to as a knight. In addition to the charters mentioning Robert le Hod, there are three that mention the lands bequeathed by his widow, …

  • Barnsdale, formerly Bernard's Hill, near Exton, Rutland. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-05-23. Revised by … Barnsdale near Exton in Rutland, a locality now largely covered by a large water reservoir known as Rutland Water, does not have any connection with Robin Hood, except the rather tenuous one that it may conceivably have been renamed after the area of the same name near Doncaster, which is one of Robin Hood's chief haunts in the earliest tales. In his 1994 monograph on Robin Hood, Stephen Knight advanced the remarkable but untenable idea that this Rutland Barnsdale was, if not the original, then at least an earlier scene of the outlaw's adventures or an alternative locale coeval with Barnsdale in South Yorkshire. It is uncertain which of these hypotheses he favoured, but he clearly felt that his discovery of this other Barnsdale was significant. He did not miss the opportunity to criticize 'empiricist historians' – often butts of his criticism – for not having …

  • Short introduction We hope that this wiki will in due course come to live up to its somewhat grand name. It is called 'International' because in addition to the vast amount of material that exists in English, we intend to add information about materials in other languages such as translations of ballads, secondary literature, children's fiction, literature on foreign analogues of Robin Hood etc. Arguably 'Bibliography' is a misnomer as the site already includes a wealth of all sorts of information one would not nor­mally expect to find in a biblio­gra­phy, but the biblio­gra­phical aspect is in all cases taken quite seriously, and there is already a wiki named the Robin Hood Wiki, so another name had to be found for the site.

  • By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2015-07-23. Revised by … It is hoped that the list of historical sheriffs included below will in time become complete for the medieval period (up to 1500). For most of that period, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire formed one bailiwick. Unless otherwise indicated, sheriffs in office before 1449 can be assumed to have served this larger bailiwick. From that year and until 1835 there were two sheriffs: one for Nottingham itself and one for the rest of Nottinghamshire. The two boroughs mentioned at Nottingham City Council: Previous Sheriffs Of Nottingham and Nottingham in the Middle Ages (600 – 1499) should be two shrievalties or sheriff's bailiwicks. There was always only one borough of Nottingham. I am grateful to David Crook for pointing this out. More sheriffs will be added to the list when found. The list is based on both primary and secondary sources, little attempt having been made to verify the information or resolve apparent conflicts. The …
