Sir Robert de Jorz was an important knight of the Shire of Nottinghamshire. He served in Parliament and as a Verderer of Sherwood Forest. He was also a Sheriff of Nottingham. He has an impressive tomb in St Hilary’s church in Byron Joyce. His tomb is currently marked by a sign sign which is leaning up on the tomb. We want to create a good wooden free standing lectern with a fine new plaque which explains who he is and what he was. The tomb of Sir Robert is the onot place where a visitor can gaze on the face of a real medieval Sheriff Of Nottingham
