This paper explores historical precedents for the characters of Bardolph and Poins in Shakespeare's Henry IV. The names Bardolph and Pointz were intimately connected with Hoo in Kent; specifically the area immediately adjacent to Cooling Castle, the seat of Sir John Oldcastle: the original name of the character we now know as Falstaff.
