King William 1 orders Urse 1 the sheriff and Osbern 16 fitzScrob and all Frenchmen and Englishmen of Worcs. to ensure that Bishop Wulfstan 55 should have fully his sake and soke, his services, and all the customs belonging to his hundred (of Oswaldslow) and his lands, as he had them in the time of King Edward 15. He is to have the lands which he proved that the abbot of Evesham should hold of his fee, namely, 4 hides in Bengeworth and the houses in the city of Worcester, in such a way that if the abbot wished to hold them, he should do service the bishop’s other vassals. And for the 15 hides of Hampton, over which the bishop has proved his right to soke, geld, military service and other royal services as belonging to his hundred, and church-scot and burial dues which belong to his vill, William 1 orders that no one is to hold them against him. He is to have all things belonging to royal service and his own, as proved and sworn before Bishop Geoffrey 2 and the addressees, with the witness of the shire. |

Record of the plea between Bishop Wulfstan 55 of Worcester and Abbot Walter 7 of Evesham, concerning the bishop’s claim against the abbot for sake and soke, burial dues and church-scot and suits and customs which should be due to the church of Worcester in the hundred of Oswaldslow, as well as the king’s geld service and military service on land and sea from the 15 hides at Hampton and the 4 hides at Bengeworth, which the abbot ought to hold from the bishop as other tenants of the church held freely for every service due to the king and bishop. |

Bishop Geoffrey 2 of Countances, on the king’s order, heard the plea between Bishop Wulfstan 55 and Abbot [Walter 7] of Evesham, in which the bishop proved that the 4 hides in Bengeworth, Worcs., and the houses in the city of Worcester belonged to his holding, so that the abbot ought to do him service from them like his other tenants. The bishop also proved that the sake and soke of Hampton, Worcs., should belong to his hundred of Oswaldslow, so that they (i.e. the people of Hampton) should plead there, pay geld there, do military service and the other royal services required from these 15 hides, and pay church-scot and burial dues at the bishop’s vill of Cropthorne, Worcs.. This was proved and sworn before Bishop Geoffrey 2, Urse 1 d’Abetot, Osbern 16 fitzScrob, and others of the king’s barons, by the judgement of the whole shire. |
