Death and legacy
He died in the summer of 1384, 'not leaving his like behind in zeal for the king and the realm', and was buried with (probably his second) wife before the entrance into the choir of the Greyfriars Church (now Christ Church), London.[38][39] He left his manor at Gillingham to his second son, whose son John exchanged it, in 1433, for Twyford, Middlesex, with Richard, son of Adam Bamme, mayor of London in 1391 and 1397.[39] A chapel which Philipot built there was used as a barn in Hasted's time, and is figured in the Bibliotheca Topographica Britannica.[40] His house in London was in Langbourne Ward, on the site of the present Philpot Lane, which was named after him.[41] He bequeathed lands to the city of London for the relief of thirteen poor people for ever.[42]
Philipot was at least twice married—to Marjery Croydon, daughter of Richard Croydon, alderman of London, who brought him the manor at Gillingham; and to Jane Stamford.[43] Hasted mentions two sons. A daughter, Margaret Philpot, married, first, T. Santlor, and, secondly, John Neyland, and dying after 1399, was buried in the church of the Greyfriars.[44][45] Descendants of his dwelt at Upton Court, Sibertswold, near Dover, until the reign of Henry VII.[46]
