In 1616 Cotterell was appointed muster master by the Duke of Buckingham. He was confirmed in the office of groom-porter to King James on 10 July 1620 and knighted at Whitehall on 26 December 1620. Cotterell also had a grant to oversee and issue licences for activities such as card games, bowling alleys and tennis courts.[1]
Cotterell served as a Vice-Admiral of Lincolnshire from 1620 to 1631. In 1621, he was elected Member of Parliament for Grantham. In 1624 he was re-elected MP for Grantham and elected also for Boston, but chose to remain with Grantham.[2] Cotterell's son Charles by Anne Alleyne became Master of Ceremonies.[3]
