As lord of St Donats he joined
the marcher opposition to Hugh Despenser the younger, who was his overlord
in Glamorgan; Stradling was arrested in January 1322 and his lands in
England and Wales were seized. They were restored in July 1324 after he
provided security in £200 for his loyalty. After Edward II was deposed in
1327, Stradling was knighted by Edward III and became a trusted knight in
Glamorgan, Somerset, and Dorset: he resided at St Donats, was sheriff and
escheator of Somerset and Dorset in 1343, MP for Somerset in 1343, and JP
in both shires in 1346–7. Oxford Dictionary National Biography.
