King Richard enfeoffed Richard de Kaunville of the manor, who died in the Holy Land, and John his son died in England without heir of his body. Gerard, elder brother of the said Richard, then intruded upon the manor, but the king removed him, and delivered it to Hugh Wake, whose son James took to wife, Amy, daughter of Peter de Harthelakeston; and their son Hugh, after their death, gave to the king 10 marks and to the queen 1 mark to have seisin of the manor.
