Some Notes on Manors & Manorial History
SOME NOTES ON MANORS & MANORIAL HISTORY BY A. HAMILTON THOMPSON, M.A.. D.Litt.. F.B.A..F.S.A. Some Notes on Manors & Manorial History By A. Hamilton Thompson, M.A., D.Litt., F.B.A., F.S.A. The popular idea of a manor assumes that it is a fixed geo graphical area with definite boundaries, which belongs to a lord with certain rights over his tenants. In common usage, we speak of this or that lordship, almost in the same way in which we refer to a parish. It is very difficult, however, to give the word an exclusively geographical meaning. If we examine one of those documents which are known as Inquisitions post mortem, for example, we shall find that, at the death of a tenant who holds his property directly from the Crown, the king's escheator will make an extent, that is, a detailed valuation, of his manors. This will consist for the most part of a list of a number of holdings with names of the tenants, specifying the rent or other services due to the lord from each. These holdings will, it is true, be generally gathered together in one or more vills or townships, of which the manor may roughly be said to consist. But it will often be found that there are outlying holdings in other vills which owe service to a manor, the nucleus of which is at some distance. Thus the members of the manor of Rothley lay scattered at various distances from their centre, divided from it and from each other by other lordships.

Historical Review
THE ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW NO. XX.—OCTOBER 1890 Downloaded from Northumbrian Tenures http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ N the thirteenth century there might be found inNorthumbria— I by which name I intend to include our five northernmost counties—certain tenures of land bearing very ancient names; there were still thegns holding in thegnage and drengs holding in drengage. These tenures, though common enough in the north, seem to have given the lawyers at Westminster a great deal of trouble by refusing to fit neatly into that scheme of holdings—frankalmoign, knight's at Johns Hopkins University on June 9, 2015 service, serjeanty, socage, villeinage—which was becoming the classical, legal, scheme. Were they military tenures or were they not ? They had features akin to those of serjeanty, other features akin to those of socage; nor were there wanting yet other features which according to some generally accepted rules would have been deemed to be marks of villeinage. I propose to collect here a little of what may be learnt about them. And in the first place let us remark that in Northumbria the duty of military service occasionally appears under a very antique name; it is still ' the king's utware.' • When a man is making a feoffment, it is of course a very common thing that besides reserving some service to be done to himself, he should also stipulate that the feoffee should discharge the service which the land owes to any overlords that there may be, and in particular the service, usually military service, that it owes to the king.

From the King's Will to the Law of the Land
FROM THE KING’S WILL TO THE LAW OF THE LAND: ENGLISH FOREST LITIGATION IN THE CURIA REGIS ROLLS, 1199-1243 A THESIS IN History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS by PAULA ANN HAYWARD B.A. with Honors, Missouri Western State University, 2018 Kansas City, Missouri 2020 © 2020 PAULA ANN HAYWARD ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FROM THE KING’S WILL TO THE LAW OF THE LAND: ENGLISH FOREST LITIGATION IN THE CURIA REGIS ROLLS, 1199-1243 Paula Ann Hayward, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2020 ABSTRACT While regulations governing the use of Medieval English land and game previously existed, William I implemented a distinct Anglo-Norman version of forest law after the Norman Conquest in 1066. Forests as a legal term, however, did not solely mean wooded lands. Forests covered many terrains, including pasture or meadow. Forest law evolved from regulations that changed with the king’s will to a bureaucratic system that became law of the land. That shift came slowly through the reigns of King John (r. 1199-1216) and Henry III (r. 1216-1272). While discord dominated John’s relationship with his barons, once his son Henry reached majority he responded favorably to critiques of his reign by the nobles. The forest cases in the Curia Regis Rolls, litigation records from the English central court, highlight the complex legal negotiations between the king, the elites, and those who operated in the forests. Nobles who had access to the king’s court confirmed or maintained their rights to land and its resources through these suits.

The Composition of Famuli Labour on English Demesnes, C.1300*
The composition of famuli labour on English demesnes, c.1300* famuli labour on english demesnes change this by Jordan Claridge and John Langdon Abstract This article explores the nature of agricultural labour in England c.1300. Using a national sample of over 400 manorial accounts containing detailed data for over 4000 individuals, the piece looks closely at famuli labour, the nucleus of the workforce on seigneurial demesnes (the farms directly cultivated by manorial lords as opposed to the land of their tenants) at the beginning of the fourteenth century, a period considered to be the pinnacle of medieval population and intensive land exploitation. By examining the rates of remuneration as well as the availability of work for the range of famuli labourers, we argue that famuli labour was divided into a bipartite system of first- and second-tier workers where core, or first-tier (and mostly male), labourers such as ploughmen, carters, and shepherds were paid higher wages and presented with more opportunities to work as compared to a group of more subsidiary ‘second-tier’ labourers largely comprised of women, the young and the elderly. This article is an exercise in examining the labour employed on medieval English demesnes – the working farms of lords on manors as opposed to the lands of their tenants – in a more systematic, comprehensive, and innovative fashion than is available in the literature to date. We do this particularly to assess the numerical and other relationships between the routinely hired supervisory personnel, ploughmen, carters, shepherds, and so on – ‘first-tier’ labour, as we style it in this article and the more subsidiary or ‘second-tier’ labour that mostly existed to support and extend the effectiveness of the first-tier personnel.

The Lincolnshire Gentry and the Wars of the Roses
The Lincolnshire Gentry and the Wars of the Roses Jonathan S. Mackman D.Phil. Thesis University of York Department of History August 1999 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the impact of the Wars of the Roses upon the people, government and landed structure of a hitherto under-studied shire. It is intended as a bridge between the numerous post-McFarlanite county studies of recent years and the specific issue of the Wars, a conflict generally approached from a central perspective. It begins by examining Lincolnshire's landed society during the later Lancastrian period, stressing the county's political isolation, the sheer size and collective wealth of its population, but also the lack of any dominant political force. It examines the nature of local government, particularly the changing social profile of local officers, and also the issue of local violence. In particular, it highlights the effects of faction and manipulation of justice in an otherwise relatively law-abiding county, and the influence of the shires upon the descent into warfare. The thesis then addresses Lincolnshire's experience of the Wars themselves, particularly stressing the limited participation of the resident population. The Lincolnshire Rebellion of 1470 is described in detail, this shadowy episode being carefully reconstructed in order to gain a fuller understanding of its importance. This is then tied in with a discussion of how the Wars had only a limited effect on Lincolnshire's social and landed structures, yet radically altered its relationship with the Crown. It highlights the tension between the established order and the Yorkist administrative elite, and the way this became embodied in a local power-struggle which, it is argued, led to the Rebellion and ultimately contributed to Edward IV's own deposition.

Medieval Feudalism Abstract Feudalism was the natural response to the greatest political need of the Dark Ages: security. Since there was no central government capable of providing this security, men fell back on their own resources, making local arrangements. Already, in the last chaotic centuries of imperial rule, Roman magnates had supported, and had been supported by, groups of clients. Among the Germanic tribes beyond the imperial frontiers, a roughly similar system of armed personal retainers had existed.

The medieval lawyers were incapable of devising suitable remedies when the same sort of transaction was carried out not with chattels but with land, nor did they find it easy to prevent such transactions being used for fraudulent purposes. In the Middle Ages it was the Chancellor who supplied the first defect and the legislature the second.
