1 .   Register 11 f.307 (recto) entry 2
Entry Type: Commission
Section Type: Ballive
Summary: Commission to Philip, bishop 'Lexlinensis' [? Leighlin], crossing the archbishop's spirituality of Hexham, to act as archbishop's suffragan there during pleasure, but not to the detriment of a similar commission to Brother Richard, bishop 'Serviensis', archbishop's suffragan.
Note: The identity of the recipient is unclear. It may possibly be Philip de Torrington, later archbishop of Cashel (Butler, 'Suffragan Bishops in the Medieval Diocese of York', p. 57), but the lists of the medieval bishops of Leighlin have no such individual. The bishop 'Serviensis' [? Serbia] has been identified variously as Richard de Casterton and Richard de Coventry, but his identity remains uncertain, as does the exact identification of his diocese.
