Yevele. 7a. land called ‘la Nuwelonde,’ held of Elizabeth de Burgo as of the honour of Gloucester by knight’s service. He held no other lands &c. in the county because, though he lately held the manor of Hyneford of the aforesaid Elizabeth, as of the aforesaid honour, by knight’s service, he enfeoffed thereof on Thursday after St. Luke, 22 Edward III, Sir John le Archer, rector of the church of Wychamptoun, and Martin Bolt, chaplain; which John Archer afterwards released his estate therein to the said Martin, who afterwards on Thursday after the Conversion of St. Paul, 23 Edward III, granted the manor to Wentliana, late the wife of the deceased, for her life, with remainder to the right heirs of the deceased.
