I heard Maid Marian caught him in the sack with "Little" John. Not a pretty sight...

THE DEATH OF ROBIN
Even Robin's death is unclear. Bruce Calder reports that the Robin Hood died on December 14, 1247, but that figure can easily be disputed because no solid evidence has really been given. Allen Wright filled me in with some more information about this: "[The birth date above] comes from the supposed epitaph on a supposed gravestone in Kirklees Priory where it is said that he died on the 24 Kalends of December, 1247. December had no kalends. It also names him the earl of Huntingdon and is clearly a later invention, not the stone of any real Robin Hood."

Recent research and evidence has indicated that Robin Hood didn't actually exist after all.
But to answer your question: Robin Hood himself is reputed to be buried in the grounds of Kirklees Priory near Brighouse in West Yorkshire. There is an elaborate grave there with the inscription referred to above. The story is that the Prioress was a relative of Robin's. Robin was ill and staying at the Priory where the Prioress was supposedly caring for him. However, she betrayed him, his health worsened, and he eventually died there.
Before he died, he told Little John (or possibly another of his Merry Men) where to bury him. He fired an arrow from his bow from the Priory window, and where the arrow landed was to be the site of his grave. The actual grave is within sight of the ruins of the Priory, and this lends credence to this version of Robin's life story.
