No lands or tenements were in the king’s hands owing to the minority of Richard, son and heir of Richard Sergeaux, knight ; but the father held the manor of Chipping Norton to himself, his wife, and the heirs of their bodies. It remained to his wife Philippa. Richard the son died, then Philippa died, and so it descended to Elizabeth, Philippa, Alice and Joan, their daughters and heirs. It is held of the king in chief by knight service, annual value 50 marks.
