In August 1254 he obtained a grant of free warren in his demesne lands at Roydon anl Morley; as the charter is dated at Bordeaux, he was probably serving in Gascony at the time. He served the office of coroner. It was probably the same Robert who was a surety in 1276, and commissioner of gaol delivery in 1279, 1287 and 1288. He died and was buried in Prussia, his heart being brought back to Roydon. [Complete Peerage IX:210, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger
