The following shows how the Vipont/Veteriponte inheritance was divided initially:

After Robert de Veteripont died from his wounds received in battle, 1264-5, fighting on 
behalf of the earl of Leicester and the barons against Henry 111, the king seized his 
vast possessions, but, on the intercession of Edward his son, he restored them to 
Robert's two heiresses—Isabella a girl of ten years and Idonea of six or seven years of 
age. The king, however, by reason of their youth, committed them to the custody of 
his two influential friends—Roger de Clifford of Clifford Castle in Herefordshire and 
Roger de Leyburn of the county of Kent. And with heiresses in their wardship, holding 
such vast possessions, it was only natural that marriages to their respective heirs 
would be arranged quickly.

In the meantime the two guardians endeavoured to come to an agreement as to the 
division of the estates between the two girls, an agreement that was confirmed when 
Roger de Clifford, the younger, married Isabella. They were to have the manor of 
Brougham; a moiety of the manors of Marton, Appleby, Winton and Brough; a moiety of 
the forests of Whinfell and Mallerstang; three parts of the manor of Meaburn Regis 
and a moiety of the profits of the Sheriffwick.

On the other hand Idonea was to have the castle of Brough; a moiety of the four 
manors as above; the manor of Kirkby Stephen; the castle of Mallerstang; a fourth part 
of the manor of Meaburn Regis, a moiety of the two forests as above; and a moiety of 
the profits of the Sheriffwick. That Idonea was to have the two castles of Brough and 
Mallerstang seems to imply that Isabella was to have the two castles of Appleby and 
Brougham.
