  • ' LAVES ' is interlined over this name, which

clearly should be ' Oslauestune.' 6 A small break follows this entry in the MS. probably marking the end of Henry de Ferrers' estates in Appletree Wapentake. 6 The word ' wasta ' is interlined above each of these places. 7 Usually identified with Coxbench, a hamlet in Holbrook. The position is suitable, but it lacks confirmation from manorial history. 342
