Provenance: DNW Auction 82, 18 June 2009, lot 347
It is of interest that the Pipe Roll of 1226 states that Tomas, son of Alan, rented the house in Newcastle that had belonged to William FitzErembald. If Alan was the son of William FitzErembald, then the same family had minted at Carlisle from c. 1130 to c.1205.
