| Title | Grant by W de Haunle [William of Henley], Prior of the Hospitallers of St John of Jerusalem in England to Elias son of William of Barowe of two acres of land, one messuage and one rood, which were bought from the Hospitallers' fee in Barewe [Barrow-on-Trent] from Richard and William of Barewe. Elias returns 10 acres of land held to farm from the surrender of William, son of Roger of Barewe
Witnesses: Brothers Waldeses, Henry Blundel, Robert de Holm, Robert de Orat and others |
| Date | [c1280-1291] |
| Description | The grant, on vellum, is mounted on a piece of parchment, endorsed with a translation of the document by Thomas Hughes [19th c] and an unrelated memorandum of the gift of the church of Barrow (Cheshire) by Robert de Backepuze to the Knight's Hospitallers of St John of Jerusalem, late 12th c [19th c]
The endorsement on this document wrongly identifies a gift of the Church at Barrow with Great Barrow in Cheshire. The gift refers to the Church of Barrow-upon-Trent in Derbyshire |
