The statement in Testa de Nevill that Titsey was held of the Honour of Gloucester from the Conquest is in itself absurd, as the Honour of Gloucester did not exist. 8 In the list de Serjantiis in the Red Book of 1212-1217, Ralph Postel held land in Coombe by the service of collecting the Queen's wool.

- Godgifu, countess of Boulogne, sister to
king Edward. Hedley was afterwards a De Clare manor, and this may not be the same place. There is an Elderbury Wood in Hedley, and there is just a possibility that Hedley might be meant by the manor of Richard de Tonebrige called Eldeberie (35, b. i.), only that is in Blackheath Hundred, which makes the identification with Albury more likely.
- A blank in the MS.
