63. (C. pp. 42, 43).—William f. Symon de Schefteling quitclaims to the abbey his grange of Flemingby within the bounds
named in the charter of Sir Thomas f. Cospatric. Witness [from
H. 1]—Robert de Korkebi, sheriff. [Simon de Sheftlings, according to the Distributio Cumbriae, received a moiety of Dearham
from Alan f. Waldeve. Sir Robert de Corby was acting sheriff
(C. & W. Trans. N.S. xiv, 241) in 1212.]
[Fisheries continued].
64. (C. p. 43).—Patrick f. Thomas f. Cospatric grants to Holm
abbey for the fishery in the Derwent four perches of land at the
head of the fishery towards the Derwent, with Wytherhoke, and
at the other head of the same fishery 20 perches with Wytherhoke.
[Canon James Wilson read 'wickerhoc' and suggested the
meaning of 'wicker-hooks'; but the dialect word might possibly
be a survival of O.N. vidar-hüggst, right of woodcutting. Patrick
dates c. 1212–50.]

grants to Holm abbey a fishery on the sea at the mouth of the

fishing. [No. 63 suggests a date c. 1212].

of William de Sceftling; one granting the grange of Flemingby

Cospatric f. Orm and his son [no. 49]. Sealed on Friday after
St. Luke's day [Oct. 18], 1276. Witness—Sir Robert de Hampton, sheriff of Cumberland.
