RICHARD OF HEXHAM (fl. 1141) , English chronicler, became prior of Hexham about 1141, and died between 1163 and 1178. He wrote Brevis Annotatio, a short, history of the church of Hexham from 674 to 1138, for which he borrowed from Bede, Eddius and Simeon of Durham . This is published by J. Raine in The Priory of Hexham, its Chroniclers, Endowments and Annals (Durham , 1864-65). More important is his Historia de gestis regis Stephani et de bello Standardii, very valuable for the history of the north of England during the earlier part of the reign of Stephen, and especially for the battle of the Standard.
