ALKESEYE was held by Robert FitzHarding in 1163, by his son Maurice (d. 1191), and by the latter’s son Robert who died in 1220 without issue. (fn. 24) The later descent is not certain, but Maurice de Gaunt (d. 1230) granted land there, lately held by Geoffrey of Erleigh, to Hugh Trivet. Hugh or a namesake was alive in 1277 and was succeeded by James Trivet who gave the land with the services of free tenants to St. Mark’s hospital, Bristol, in 1315. The land was then probably absorbed into Pawlett Gaunts manor. (fn. 25)
