Analysing Property Rents in Medieval Gloucester Catherine Casson and Mark Casson Abstract Although medieval rentals have been extensively studied, few scholars have used them to analyse variations in the rents paid on individual properties within a town. It has been claimed that medieval rents did not reflect economic values or market forces, but were set according to social and political rather than economic criteria, and remained ossified at customary levels. This paper uses hedonic regression methods to test whether property rents in medieval Gloucester were influenced by classic economic factors such as the location and use of a property. It investigates both rents and local rates (landgavel), and explores the relationship between the two.

Those discussions were swirling around at the same time as the Committee for Perth had identified the enhancement of Perth’s cultural fabric as a key strategy in the Committee’s goal of improving the liveability of Perth. Arising from these twin drivers came the adoption by the Committee of a project to explore a vision for the future of arts and culture in our capital city. Lotterywest generously agreed to fund this project, which has essentially been about creating the future for Perth and Western Australia and ensuring that arts and culture are central to that future. As part of the project we have welcomed the participation of a broad range of people across the cultural sector, including the traditional art form areas, heritage, arts, education, media and commercial entertainment, design and town planning and from many communities.
