Robin Hood and the Pedlars is one of John Payne Collier's many forgeries.[1] As Child noted, the ballad was "found in a manuscript pretended to be of about 1650, but [...] written in a forged hand of this [i.e. the 19th] century. I do not feel certain that the ballads [in this MS] themselves, bad as they are, are forgeries".[2]
