They make a convincing case!

 

Somewhere between a rock and a hard place in Loxley valley, I believe.

 

"A pardon discovered by David Pilling and Rob Lynley identified Robin Hood as Robert Dore of Wadsley. His pardon reads "Robert Dore of Wadsley, otherwise known as Robert Hode (Hood) given the King's pardon on 22 May 1382." (Roll of King's Pardons 4-5 Richard II 1382.) The knightly Wadsley family were the lords of the manor, they hunted deer on Loxley Chase and fletchers (arrow makers) lived on Loxley Common..."
