MORTIMER of Richard's Castle
The descent of the lordship of Burford, Salop, with Richard's Castle, co.Hereford, as its caput, is traced by Eyton from RICHARD FITZSCRUB, a Norman favourite of Edward the Confessor, who was allowed-by the Godwin party to remain in England in 1053, and who built and gave his name to the castle. [Complete Peerage IX:256, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

The following information was from a post-em by Curt Hofemann,(XXXXX@XXXX.XXX):
Richard Scrupe, or Fitz-Scrupe, held various manors in Worcestershire,Herefordshire, and Shropshire in the time of Edward the Confessor, as appears on the authority of Domesday book, at the compilation of which, they were possessed by his son, Osborn Fitz-Richard, or Fitz-Scrop. [Ref:John Burke, The Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, R. Bentley,London, 1834-1838, Vol. III, p. 693, Scrope, of Castle Combe]
