Robin Hood's Meadow in Perlethorpe is situated immediately west of the Maun (here known as Whitewater), opposite Robin Hood's Cave. It is first recorded in 1841.
The first known record of this field name is the 1841 tithe award of Perlethorpe and Edwinstowe, in which it is listed as two contiguous plots, both belonging to 'The Earl Manvers', i.e. Charles Pierrepont, Viscount Newark (1805–50),[1] whose seat was (the preceding incarnation of) Thoresby Hall. The occupier of both plots was a William Pickin, state of cultivation was 'Meadow', the area of the two plots being 14 acres and 24 perches, respectively 9 acres and 14 perches, yielding a total area of (Template:AcreRoodPerchToM2 m2).[2]
The stretch of River Maun running through this area is known as Whitewater. Along most of the eastern boundary of Robin Hood's Meadow it is separated from the river by a narrow belt of trees. Robin Hood's Cave across the small river being presumably (once or still?) a more conspicuous feature, it was in all probability the name of the latter which suggested that of the former rather than vice versa.
