[Bucks.] A. 404. Indenture between Robert de Veteri Ponte (Vipont) and Alan Bassat of the one part, and Richard de Terre, Robert de Croindon, William de Staines, Roger le Eir, and Richard de Rouen, and many others seeking common of pasture in Wicumbe against Robert and Alan, of the other. The former acknowledge the pasture to be the common pasture of the latter both in the woods and their pannage, provided that all hogs from Wicombe which have been fed in Wicombe woods if they be found in Penn woods be quit of pannage in the same way as hogs from Penn ; with this addition, that if Robert and Alan wish to sell their woods in which there was pannage, they be not hindered thereby: the commoners holding the pasture aforesaid of the said Robert and Alan. For this acknowledgment the commoners grant to Robert de Veteri Ponte all assarts made between Heselmere and the land Robert de Croindon held of Thomas de Auno, and to Alan Bassat all the land he cultivated with his ploughs in Heselmere and Russemere ; such lands to be so ditched and enclosed that the commoners' beasts may not enter there, or if perchance they shall stray therein for want of enclosure the said Robert and Alan shall not impound them. Witnesses' : Robert de Lexentune, Henry de Braibroch, William de Panewurthe, and others (named). Three seals remaining, one equestrian. |
