Grant to the abbot and convent of Rewley, Northoseneye by Oxford, that they may hold their dwelling-place as now enclosed without let or hindrance of the king's ministers. Upon the representation of the said abbot and convent that they and their predecessors held the site of their dwellingplace, or abbey, of the grant which Edmund, sometime earl of Cornwall, by his charter, which the late king confirmed, made to them of all his lands and tenements in Northoseneye by Oxford, saving to the said earl a sufficient . 113 place to hold his court of the honor of St. Walery, by virtue of which grant they have hitherto held the same enclosed, and that the escheators beyond Trent, and their sub-escheators in the county of Oxford, alleging that the abbot and convent have usurped and enclosed without licence other tenements not included in the said grant, have frequently harassed them, the king now learns by an inquisition taken by Master Richard de Clare, king's clerk, escheator beyond Trent, that the abbot and conyent have not committed any such usurpations, or hold inclosed any tenements except those contained in the said grant.
