Raine, North Durham, p. 79. 1300 27 region during the first half of his reign. In 1128, he transferred the Tironensians he had earlier settled at Selkirk to Kelso, uncomfortably close to Coldingham; and in the following decade he founded the Cistercian house at Melrose (1136) and the Augustinian canonry at Jedburgh (1138).

In addition to Papedy’s, there were three other feudal fees at Heaton, Tillmouth and Ross, each held by the service of half a knight.
