The earliest Robin Hood Ballad in existence is "The Gest of Robin Hood," which I follow in my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles. It is undated, but the evidence is that it was written before 1450. There is a reference to Robin Hood ballads -- the names are not given -- in Langland's Piers Plowman, which was written in 1377, so there must have been some before that date.

Did Robin Hood die in brighouse woods?
The earliest source of information about how and where Robin Hood died is a ballad called "The Death of Robin Hood." I follow it pretty closely in my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles. In the ballad Robin is ill and is taken by Little John to the convent at Kirklees, where his cousin, who is skilled in medicine, is prioress. It is there that he dies. The ballad does not indicate the nature of the illness he is being treated for; in my novel I assume it was the Black Death, a plague which killed hundreds of people in England in 1348.

What year did the historical Robin hood die and how old was he when he died?
The earliest source of information about how Robin Hood died is a ballad called 'The Death of Robin Hood." It does not give the year in which he died. In my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles i conjecture that he died in 1348, because that was the year of a plague called the Black Death, which killed hundreds of people in England. Since there is no way of knowing when Robin Hood was born, there is no way of knowing how old he was when he died; my speculation is that he was somewhere around 60, but it is only speculation.
