• Notes

  Warden of the Forest of Braydon as of 1330. On 14 Dec 1330, Queen Philippa appointed him Warden of the Forests of Chippenham and Melksham. "Also in 1330, Gilbert de Berwick held the manor of East Winterslowe which involved the curious duty of drawing a pitcher of claret and presenting it to the king whenever he was staying at the palace of Clarendon, the lord of the manor being allowed to retain the pitcher and the beaker from which the king drank." [Walter Goodwin Davis, citation details below.]
