Two of them certainly, and a third very probably, are of twelfth-century date, and are thus a substantial addition to the three instances of twelfth-century fulling mills which she discovered. As one of my examples belongs to the reign of Henry II, and another was the subject of a grant which may have been made between I 1 74 and i I 8o and in which there is reference to a former tenant, these may well be somewhat earlier cases than those mentioned in the survey of the Templars' lands of I I 85 (Temple Newsham in Yorkshire and Bartonon-Windrush, Gloucestershire) which are the earliest in Miss Carus-Wilson's list.
