I. as appears in Domesday. He possessed no less than sixty lordships. He gave to the priory of Spalding, refounded about this time by his countryman, Ivo Talbois, one carucat of land in that town, anno 1081. Histoir. de Sablé, p, 138. thus says the charter of donation. Guy de Croun, in obedience to the divine inspiration, out of his ability, gave a certain parcel of his estate to GOD and St. Nicholas, for the soul of William the king, and Maud the queen, and for the soul of William the First, that the Lord would grant him success in his reign, and bring him to a good end; one carucat of land in Spaldingue, with the appurtenances; his wife, all his sons and daughters, and brothers, consenting thereto, for the good of his soul.——He likewise gave ten carucats of land in Pynchbeck to the abbey of Croyland, and two carucats in Spalding to the same. | |

He so far excelled in industry, honesty, wisdom, and sanctity, that he was called the King’s God, by the soldiery. In his country at Frieston, he was called Alan Open-doors, because he kept so great a house, says Leland in his Itinerary, Vol. VII. p. 126. He owned Southwarnburn, com. Southampt. He founded the priory of Frieston for Benedictin monks, subject to the abbot of Croyland, anno 1142: he was buried at Croyland abbey, on the south side of the high altar.
