He held 1 messuage, 45 a. arable, 1 a. meadow and 40s. rent in Lower Bullingham, Clehonger and the suburbs of Hereford in his demesne as of fee of the king in chief as an eighth part of a knight’s fee. By charter he enfeoffed Master Richard de la Barre, clerk , John Rede, chaplain , and Roger de la Halle and their heirs and assigns. So they held them and at their will and licence he held them all his life. That and no other was his title. After his death the feoffees granted them to Agnes his widow for life, with remainder to Thomas, brother of William, his heirs and assigns. So she held and after her death Thomas de la Barre, knight , son of Thomas, as heir of William. He held 1 tenement in Bewell Street in Hereford of the bishop of Hereford in free burgage, service unknown, annual value 10s. By the custom of this tenure of the bishop it should descend to the younger brother. William died without heirs of his body and by this custom Thomas is heir, although they had an elder brother Walter, whose issue still survives. Thomas is aged 40 years and more. What estate William had in 2 parcels called ‘les Pokkes’ beyond Rotherwas and in 2 burgages in the liberty of Hereford, and of whom they are held is unknown.
