- 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.

- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2015-08-28. Revised by … The items listed below all concern historical persons – law-abiding or otherwise – named Little John (John Little, John Petit, Parvus Johannes etc.) 'Petit' and 'Parvus' can of course be French/Latin renderings not only of Little but also of Small or Short. This complication is probably less important for the 14th century and earlier than it would be for a later period, for apart from members of the upper classes, during most of the medieval period most Englishmen's surnames had not yet become fixed. They were still often essentially additional (descriptive) identifiers that could be added to the Christian name in contexts were unambiguous reference was desired. A Small might therefore conceivably appear in another context as a Short or Little or, if he earned his daily bread at the anvil, as a Smith. Nonetheless I have left out of consideration individuals surnamed Small or Short. The list will be long enough …3 KB (391 words) - 02:07, 1 June 2022

The Maid Marian character, whatever her precise origins, entered the Robin Hood tradition via festival traditions. Friar Tuck may or may not have originated as a character in popular festivals, but by the end of the Middle Ages he had become connected with morris dancing and May games. It was at least partly through such pastimes and festivals that he came to be connected with Robin Hood.

- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2014-08-22. Revised by … More than fifty editions/printings of chap-books of Robin Hood ballads are known. They often carry the title 'Robin Hood's Garland'. In case of items with other titles, one often cannot tell from the title and other bibliographical data whether it is a chapbook ballad collection or a prose-chapbook. Such doubtful items are listed separately under the heading "Ballads or prose". The first known Robin Hood's Garland dates from 1663, but this probably was not the first printing. The latest garlands, under other titles, would seem to date from the very late 19th or early 20th century, but again this is hard to determine as the titles tend not to reveal whether the contents are verse or prose.

The tendency to "drop aitches" in British English is not new. See the page on the allusion 1324 - Louis, count of Flanders - Letter to Edward II or III. In dialects and/or sociolects where initial 'W" could also be dropped, the words 'Hood' and 'Wood' became phonetically indistinguishable. By and large, literate Englishmen were aware that an initial sound had been dropped from the sound sequence represented in spelling by 'ood' and felt a need to supply it when writing, but they sometimes chose the wrong letter (sound). This mistake would be the more likely since 'Hood' and 'Wood' are both surnames.

That the records listed below all refer to one and the same Little John is quite clear from the following table of facts and associations: Six of the records refer to Little John as master of one of the king's ships; two refer to him as a mariner. On the two occasions when he allegedly participates in acts of piracy or privateering, he acts in association with fellow ship's masters and sailors of the royal fleet.

The prioress is not given a name in either tale, and it is quite uncertain if their authors had a specific historical prioress in mind. Nonetheless a list of prioresses follows here. I believe it includes all known incumbents, yet it is quite incomplete, and unless major new discoveries are made, it will probably remain so. Note that a single year listed for an incumbent means that she is known to have been prioress (at least part of) that year. It does not mean she was not prioress the preceding or following year, only that it is not known if this was the case. Only for three prioresses do we know both the first and last year of the incumbency with reasonable certainty: Cecilia Hyk, Cecilia Topcliffe, and Joan Kyppes.

A native plant in the UK, it is common throughout England south of a line from the Mersey to the Humber as well as in the south, east and north of Wales. It is widely planted outside its natural range and may be found as far north as the southern highlands of Scotland. Its many fruits have long silky appendages, and it is not too difficult to imagine that it may have reminded someone of an old man's beard. The plant in fruit is obviously suggestive of feathers.

The plant, which has the alternative Latin name of Robertiella robertiana, is also known under the folk-names 'death come quickly', 'storksbill', 'dove's foot', 'crow's foot', 'Robert geranium', 'red Robin', and 'herb Robert', the latter clearly being the most common.

Wallace was captured and executed by the English in 1305. His deeds are celebrated in the Middle Scots poem The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Campioun Schir William Wallace, written by Henry the Minstrel aka Blind Harry (c.1440-1492), and often called Blind Harry's Wallace.

He was pardoned and reinstated as lord of Whittington in 1203. His deeds and those of his ancestors were the subject of a 13th century Anglo-Norman narrative poem that was part ancestral romance, part outlaw tale. This is lost, but a very close 13th century prose paraphrase survives. There was also an ME metrical romance which was still extant in the mid-16th century, when John Leland made excerpts from it, supplementing it, where a couple of leaves were missing, with the Anglo-Norman version.

Excellent discussion of Robin Hood festivals, morris dancing, and May games. Subsequent pages are devoted to a discussion of Puritan opposition to such pastimes and the "moderating" influence of James I's Book of Sports.

Using the cloak of politics to make a travesty of the Courts of Justice, they plundered a people beaten but unbowed, still eager to fight, unafraid to die for their vanquished land." Plot Gabby Hayes,.ak.a. the Night Rider is a Robin Hood-like character who stands up against Ambrose Ballard, a carpetbagger who is out to take over all of Purvis County.

- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-24. Revised by … This 1991 Warner Bros film staring Kevin Costner was the once-in-a-generation Robin Hood film of its time, a classic even if it did not quite reach the level of popularity of the 1922 film starring Douglas Fairbanks Jr. or the 1938 film starring Erroll Flynn, but fewer films have done so in the post World War II period, for with so many new films constantly appearing, any one film is less likely to grab the attention of the daily media and keep it for more than a few days or perhaps weeks. Plot During the Third Crusade, Robin of Locksley escapes from prison in Jerusalem, promising his comrade Peter, who is killed during the escape, to protect his sister Marian. Robin returns to England with Azeem, a Moor whose life he has saved and who has sworn to repay his debt of gratitude.

- From east to west, localities discussed on this page: Stanley, Newton, Wakefield, Alverthorpe, Hipperholme, and Sowerby. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2015-07-11. Revised by … The Manor of Wakefield was a vast estate covering two large areas of the West Riding of Yorkshire. In addition to Wakefield, townships within the manor included Stansfield, Heptonstall, Northowram, Hipperholme, Brighouse, Clifton, Hartshead, Dewsbury, Ossett, Sandal, Walton, Holme, Shepley, etc. (see map of the estate). An almost unbroken series of records of the manorial court exists from 1274 to 1925, when the manor was dissolved. See Yorkshire Archaeological Society: Wakefield Court Rolls. During the first half of the 14th century, families surnamed Hood with at least one member carrying the first name Robert were found in Wakefield, Alverthorpe, Stanley, Sowerby, and perhaps Sandal (see interactive map below). Joseph Hunter famously suggested that one of these Robert Hoods, a Wakefield tenant who …57 KB (8,998 words) - 09:13, 8 May 2023
- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-10-21. Revised by … The 1952 British film Miss Robin Hood has more Robin Hood-connections than just its title. One of its main characters writes an eponymous serial in a magazine named The Teenager, while one of his most avid fans is an elderly lady who runs an unofficial orphanage/thievery school, financed by activities of the sort depicted in the serial. When called upon, her wards turn out in force, armed with golf clubs, tennis rackets, billiard cues etc. On occasion she wears the kind of hat that is now universally recognized as a Robin Hood hat. Plot Henry Wrigley is asleep, dreaming about a woman and two girls – his daughters perhaps – burgling a stockbrokers, where they open a safe with a welder, intending to spend the loot on helping orphans, feeding pigeons and constructing playgrounds. In waking life he is the writer of "Miss Robin Hood", a serial published in a widely read magazine titled The Teenager. Wrigley is …17 KB (2,662 words) - 06:44, 17 May 2022

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 …72 KB (9,913 words) - 00:49, 28 April 2023
- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2014-07-20. Revised by … This 1975 six part BBC television series, first aired in the UK from 23 November to 28 December 1975, is somewhat more realistic in tone, costumes, and décor than earlier productions. Several critics have found Martin Potter's Robin Hood dour, but then perhaps they prefer Hollywood style over-acting. It is, on the other hand, incontrovertible that David Dixon as Prince John has an uncanny similarity to Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees as he looked around the time this TV series was made. Plot Episode 1 Setting out on a crusade with Henry II, the Earl of Huntingdon leaves his infant son Robert with a foster father, John Hood, and a teacher/tutor, Father Ambrose. Years later young Robin sets out to London to claim his inheritance at Richard I's court. En route he saves Lady Marion Neston from being kidnapped while on her way to be married to the Norman lord Sir Guy of Gisborne.

Revised by … No less than 14 versions exist of a Danish ballad on the murder of King Erik the Fifth 'Klipping' in 1286 and its aftermath. It is possible this king's nickname 'Klipping' refers to his devaluing, clipping the coins. See Wikipedia: Eric V of Denmark.
