The next forest pleas of Sherwood were held at Nottingham on 1 January, 1287, before Sir William de Vescy, Thomas de Normanville, and Richard de Creping, justices in eyre of the lord king. (1) There were six verderers; Richard de Fort, William de Colwick, John de Annesley, Henry de Tinsley, William de Bevercotes, and Ralph clerk of Mansfield. Robert de Everingham was the forester-of-fee, and under him were eight sworn foresters. Sir William de Vescy and his fellow justices found that the general assize of the forest had not been properly observed, at least since the last eyre held by Robert de Neville and others. In response, they issued special injunctions to the following effect:

It would appear that 350 deer (both red and fallow) had died of murrain in the year preceding the holding of this eyre, and were entered on the venison presentments. The Attachment, or Forty-day Court as it was sometimes called from the period at which it was summoned, was held by the verderers with much regularity in Sherwood for a long time after the pronouncement of the forest justices at Nottingham in 1287. These courts were held at four different centres, namely at Edwinstowe, Mansfield, Linby, and Calverton, on successive days of the same week.
