Your own link supports our position of judge made law. From your post:

The Royal Courts of the thirteenth century were confronted with cases for decisions. There was no uniform body of statutes to rely upon. The only available source was local custom. It did not take many generations of Royal Judges, dealing with actual disputes, to establish the local and divergent customary laws into a single jurisprudence which was the Common Law of England

The Royal Judges made decisions which made "divergent customary laws into a single jurisprudence." Judge made law.

Judge made law.

Cognitive dissonance.
