I suspect that Serjeant-at-law belongs here somewhere but am not certain where to put it. Any suggestions? --Matthew K 03:19, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Chief Larderer
This article says the office of Chief Larderer was linked to the manor of Soulton Burdeleys (i.e. Scoulton in Norfolk?), the office being performed at coronations by the Baron Bergavenny. Opera hat (talk) 12:18, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, it does refer to Scoulton. See here - apparently the Baron Maynard was Chief Larderer in 1661 and 1689. Opera hat (talk) 12:29, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Etymology
What is the etymology? This needs to be included.174.3.125.23 (talk) 12:05, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

spurs

 * the duty to carry the spurs at a coronation, vested in descendants of the Earl of Pembroke. In 2023, the spurs will be carried by Delaval Astley, 23rd Baron Hastings and Simon Abney-Hastings, 15th Earl of Loudoun, who shares with other descendants of 20th Baroness Grey de Ruthyn including the Earl of Romney, the Viscount St Davids and the Baron Churston.

Ambiguous wording. Are there two hereditary spur-carriers, one of the offices divided and the other held wholly by Hastings, or what? —Tamfang (talk) 22:16, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

Dillegrout
We're saying the coronation of Eleanor of Provence was the earliest example, but Dillegrout is saying differently. The assertion about Eleanor is unsourced, can anyone provide clarification? Valereee (talk) 12:09, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
