Philip confir med his father's gifts to the abbey of St. Florent in 1096.
He was the first Braose Lord of Builth and Radnor, their initial holding
in the Welsh Marches. Philip seems to have gone on the 1st CrusaDe and
returned in 1103. He built the Norman church of St Nicolas (right) at Old
Shoreham and founded the port of New Shoreham. His lands were confiscated
by Henry I in 1110, due to his tr aitrous support of William, son of
Robert Curthose but they were returned in 1112.
Between 1125 and 1130 Philip confirmed the gifts of his nephew, Philip d e
Harcourt, to the newly established Knights Templar.
Father: William De Bra ose, 1st Lord of Bramber
Mother: Eve De Boissey (probably)
There are charters where Robert De Harcourt's sons, Philip and Richard,
refer to Philip De Brao se as "patruus" - paternal uncle. This lends
weight to the theory that Robert De Harcourt and Philip De Braose were
both sons of Eve De Boissey. In anothe r record dated 1103 (Pipe Roll Soc.
Vol 71 no 544) it is stated that Philip d e Braose was represented by "his
brother Robert, the son of Anketill".
