A HISTORY OF LANCASHIRE of scutage on his fees in the first five scutages of John's reign/ In 1202 the castle of Tillieres was delivered into his custody by the king,' but in De- cember, 1205, he incurred the royal displeasure in connexion with the imprisonment of a certain Wenhunwen by the earl of Chester, whereupon his castle of Hornby and all his lands were seized, but within three months restored, the archbishop of Canterbury and the constable of Chester being sureties for his future fidelity to the king ^ and himself finding hostages, viz., Gilbert son of Gilbert de Notton, and Warin son of Ralph de Mare.* In August, 1208, he was with the king at Kirkby Kendal.^ The following particulars of the fees belonging to this barony are taken from the great inquest of service made at Midsummer, 1 2 1 2,' supplemented by the inquest of the Gascon scutage made in 1242-3. It will be noted that whilst the barony was held of the honour of Lancaster by the service of eight knights, the total service due to Henry de Monewden in 1242-3 amounted to over eleven knights' fees.
