CLEVELAND DIVISION. This Division takes its name from the district of Cleveland (Cliff-land), otherwise the Liberty and Wapentake of Langbaurgh, the greater of which is included within the parliamentary boundaries. Cleveland was granted by King John in 1207 to Peter de Brus, Lord of Skelton, for a payment of 400 marks. The sister and heiress of the last Peter de Brus conveyed it in marriage to Walter de Fauconberg. In the 13th of James I (1616), Sir Henry Bellasis established his title and claim to have the wapentake of Langberth, with its rights, members, liberties, appurtenances, free chase, free warren, fines, issues, amercements, courts leet, pillory, tumbrel, gallows for malefactors, &c. The Liberty afterwards passed into other families, and is now held by G. F. Marwood, Esq., of Busby Hall, who is Lord Paramount and Chief Bailiff.
