The site of Lěskovljani is attested as a boundary marker. (Vь Položkoi ōblasti selo Rěčici, i to darovan’noje s(ve)toïmь Romanomъ carjemь Svetōmu Geōrgiju sъ vinogradi, sь nivijemъ, i sъ žrъnъkami, sъ perivolmi, sь sěnokosi, sь zaběloï, sь planinami, sь lovištemъ zvěrnoïmъ, i sь vsěmi dohodkoï i sь vsěmi pravinami…a sinorь selu tōmu:…o na Točilь koi laz…ad…Lěskovijane…vьz brьdō do gor… [ta pravo na Točilь, koi lazi nadь Lěskovijane, tere vьz brьdō do gora]). The Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin confirmed the donation of the village of Rěčice with boundaries including the site of Lěskovljani to the Monastery of Saint George-Gorg (Selo vь ōblasti Položьkoi Rěčice sь Popovlïani, …A mege rěčicke počinajutь ōt…i ōt tudu parvo na Točilь koi slazi nad Leskovijani tere uz brьdo dogvozda). According to the Nomic charter preserved in the Land Inventory-Brebion one of the group of people gathered at the Monastery of Holy Virgin in Htětovo and consulted in the dispute over the possession rights of the hill Pleš, was Theodor, who came from Lěskovljani (Theodor ōdь Lěskovljanь). The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan donated together with his son, the Young King (mlad kralь) Uroš, the village of Lěskovljani with all boundaries and rights to the Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Htětovo (Selo Lěskovljani sь vsěmi megami i pravinami). The Land Inventory Brebion contains evidence about a field and an estate underneath Lěskovljani, which belonged to the Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Htětovo (293, art. 50: Niva pod Lěskovljani nizь brazdu pod putem...i pod Lěskovljani komatь niz brazdu). According to the Land Inventory Brebion a certain Obradь donated a part of a vineyard near Lěskovljani to the Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Htětovo for the right to have a grave (298, art. 83: i komat vinograda u Lěskovljanehь, i dvě črьnici, i pod Vrьbomь niva na 6 zametь, što dade Obradь za grobь). On 10 August 1354 the Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan issued together with his son King Uroš the charter for the Monastery of Hilandar, in which he confirmed the donation of the village of Lěskovljani with all boundaries and rights by the lady Višeslava and her sons Bogdan and Bogoje to the Monastery of Hilandar (…što jestь priložila gospožda carьstva mi Višeslave hramu Prěsvetije Bogorodice Hilandrskije, selo Lěskovlěne s megomь, s periōromь i vsěmi pravinami sela toga, po htěniju gospožde Višeslave i sinovь jeje Bogdana i Bogoja, a ni po jednoi silě ni po nevoli…i zapisah mi selo Lěskovlěne s megami, s utesi, s periōromь i sь vsěmi pravinami sela toga, da jestь crьkьve Svetije Bogorodice Hilandarьskije do dьni i do věka…).
