Plumpton Park, a field c. 600 m N. of Bolton-by-Bowland.

By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-05-01. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-05-01.

In the Gest, King Edward is exasperated at noticing the scarcity of deer in Plumpton Park after Robin and his men have been poaching there during their stay with the knight. We should almost certainly take this to be in Lancashire, but it could just possibly be some place King Edward is meant to have visited after his progress in Lancashire. Plumpton Park is listed in an 1840 MS tithe award as the name of a field c. 600 meters north of Bolton-by-Bowland.[1]

Quotations

[c. 1500:]
All the passe of Lancasshyre
He went both ferre and nere
Tyll he came to Plomton Parke
He faylyd many of his dere.[2]
