On Leicester, Earldom of [Burke's Peerage, p. 1671]:
The 3rd Earl of this creation, yet another Robert, rebelled against Henry II and the town of Leicester was captured and set fire to by the King in 1173, although the castle itself was not taken. The 3rd Earl was later captured by Henry II, however, and the King then pulled the castle down.
