Dugdale, Warwickshire (Folio p. 374–5).
"One of the Ardens enfeoffed the Canons of Trentham in ½ kt's. fee in Fenny Compton, and they passed it to Richard Peche, lord of Wormleighton (fn. 1), to hold by the same service, as may be inferred from an Inquisition of 7 Ed. I.: though in 20 H. 3 (1236), (but see deed preceding) no mention is made of this interpolated tenure of the Canons of Trentham, for at that date R. Peche held it immediately of the Earl of Warwick: but, about the beginning of Ed. I. time, upon an agreement made (W. Burton's coll.) betwixt Richard Prior of Trentham, and the Lady Hawisia, widow of R. Peche, the title of the Canons of Trentham begins to appear: For the said canons, at the request of Wm. Bishop, of Norwich (Wm. de Middleton, 1278–1288), Sir Hugh de Arden, Kt., (fn. 2) and others, granted to the said Hawise, the wardship of this part of Fenny Compton, with the relief of her son John, when he should come of age, which John in 7 Ed. (1279) was certified to hold this lordship of the Prior of Trentham, and he of Tho de Arderne, who held it of the Earl of Warwick, by the service of ½ kts. fee, having one carucate in demesne, and five villeins holding three yardlands, for which they paid severall rents, and did suit at his court."
