In 1191 he quitclaimed the advowson of the church of Harthill, Yorkshire to Lewes Priory, in exchange for that of Portslade, Sussex. He also gave the priory land in Brighton, Sussex, in exchange for the mill of Newhaven, which his father had previously granted the priory. He was a king's justice, serving as a justice itinerant and at Westminster from 1192 onwards. He held a part of the honour of Gloucester in custody, 1192-6.
