Under Edward III there was war with Scotland and in 1312 commissions were given to array the County Forces, first up to five hundred, then to one thousand. The County History tells us that a commission for array of three hundred archers was given to Robert de Etchingham of Bibleham, and in the Wadhurst lists of that reign stands the name of J. de Wadehurst, who held part of a Knight's fee in Wadhurst and Church Settle, and was a " Bibleham Archer."
