OK, I realise there are many stories told about the Sheriff of Nottingham, but this page is starting to look like Sherrif of Nottingham in fiction with so many paragraphs about Robin Hood and even Disney cartoons.
I'll try to lookup some more research, but just from the vaguest of memories and a few links:

What about William de Briwere (or Brewer or Bruere)? I understood he was Sheriff of a number of shires including Nottinghamshire during the time that Richard was on Crusade.

The Sheriff was the king's respresentative in a county, therefore could be under the direct control of the king.
For years the post has been directly appointed by the Lord Mayor ... How many years? Five? Fifty? Five hundred? ::Supergolden:: 13:22, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
Why don't we do a seperate article on the Sheriff of Nottingham in Fiction? Then we could just keep a note in this article saying "The Sheriff of Nottingham was an arch-villain in the Robin Hood stories."
In the BBC "Robinhood" series, did Robin call the Sheriff by name near the end of the episode " Peace? Off!!"? I could swear he said "Vasily, with me" when they were fighting the assassins. 207.202.227.125 01:41, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

I found the name of the current Sheriff at [4] -- which may be a transient page.
The page incorrectly listed Leon Unczur as the current sheriff which is incorrect - not helped by the fact that Nottingham City Council have not updated their page about the sheriff on their website. The current sheriff is Councillor Merlita Bryan as stated at http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=3686 Flibblesan ( talk) 20:57, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
