CARTULARY THE Cartulary or register of deeds and charters relating to Missenden Abbey which forms the subject of this volume is preserved in the Harleian collection in the British Museum (Harl. MS. 3688). It measures 14¼ in. X 9 in. × 21 in.; the binding is modern. The transcription was the work of Robert de Welwes or Wells, and, as he himself tells us in the words written at the head of the firstMissenden charter, his task was completed in 133o. The writing throughout is in a good fourteenth-century hand, except for a few later additions and interpolations. So far as one can judge, the transcriber appears to have done his work accurately and wet1, and to have had the intention at least of copying the original charters verbatim et literatim. Unfortunately, none of these original charters appears to have survived, so that it has proved impossible to check his accuracy by the method of collation. Tanner, in his Notitia Monastica (p. 25, 1744 edition), mentions two cartularies, one in the possession of Edward Coke, of Holkham, Norfolk, con- taining 124 folios, and the other described as at one time in the possession of Lady Dormer. The former is dealt with below, but I have been unable to discover the fate of the cartulary owned by Lady Dormer. It is probable, I think, that this is the cartulary which found its way into the Harleian collection, especially as Tanner does not refer to the Harleian MS. The date of its acquisition for the collection is, however, known, for in Wanley's Diary (Lansdowne MS. 772), under the date I9 Nov., 1725, the following entry appears: '14. This day (at noon) by my Lord's Order, I went to Mr. Anderson, and paid him for six imperfect manuscripts. The principal of them is an old Chartulary of Missendene Abbey, which wanteth one leaf, if not more. These books are all marked with the date of this day.' From other entries in the diary it appears that Anderson was only acting for the real owner, whose name unfortunately is not mentioned. In the Index to the diary Anderson is ix X INTRODUCTION described as Thomas Anderson, late Writer to the Signet in £ Scotland. The date on fo. I* of the Cartulary is in Wanley's handwriting. e t (b) TH~ BROWN~. WIT LIS TRANSCRIPT 1 c, One would have expected to find the Coke cartulary, L referred to above, in the great library of the Earl of Leicester t at Holkham, but I am informed that no such cartulary exists there at the present time. There is, however, in the Bodleian Library a transcript of this cartulary (Browne Willis MS. 5) which Browne Willis, the great Buckinghamshire antiquary, caused to be made in the eighteenth century. At the beginning of the transcript the following note appears: 'N.B. The follow- ing Register of Missenden was lent me by Peter Le Neve Nor- roy K. at Arms and these sheets transcribed by Mr. Slyford in about Io days. As to the Index on the next page it is taken from a very imperfect and almost illegible one entered in a modern hand at the beginning of the MSS. which is wrote on vellum and contains 125 folios. It belonged to the Lord Chief Justice Sir Edward Coke and was borrowed by Mr. Le Neve of His Heir Mr. Coke of Holcumb, Co. Norfolk.' Presumably Browne Willis returned the manuscript to Le Neve, and it is possible that the latter, after the manner of borrowers, omitted to deliver it to the owner at Holkham; at all events its present whereabouts, if it still exists, cannot be ascertained. From the evidence afforded by the contents of the Browne Willis tran- script, it would appear that the original cartulary was com- piled about the end of the thirteenth or beginning of the four- teenth century, and was, therefore, not very much earlier in date than the Harleian MS. But in the absence of the cartulary and without the opportunity of inspecting the handwriting, it is really impossible to assign a date; the fact that one of the charters is dated as late as I322 (see Appendix A, No. I8) does not necessarily imply that the whole cartulary was written then or later. The principal value of the Browne Willis transcript lies in the fact that several of the twelfth-century charters are given a precise date, which in nearly every case is supported by the evidence of the charters themselves. These dates could hardly have been inserted by Browne Willis or his amanuensis, nor INTRODUCTION xi could they have been supplied with such exactitude by the monastic transcriber working a century and a half after the execution of the original charters; the only conclusion seems to bc that the charters themselves were dated, an unusual but not unknown occurrence.

  • USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction
    USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction During the Second World War, the East of England became home to hundreds of US airmen. They began arriving in 1942, with many existing RAF (Royal Air Force) airfields made available to the USAAF (United States Army Air Force). By 1943 there were over 100,000 US airmen based in Britain. The largest concentration was in the East of England, where most of the 8th Air Force and some of the 9th were located on near a hundred bases. The 8th Air Force was the largest air striking force ever committed to battle, with the first units arriving in May 1942. The 9th Air Force was re-formed in England in October 1943 - it was the operator of the most formidable troop-carrying force ever assembled. Their arrival had an immediate impact on the East Anglian scene. This was the 'friendly invasion' - a time of jitterbugging dances and big band sounds, while the British got their first taste of peanut butter, chewing gum and Coke. Famous US bandleader Glenn Miller was based in the Bedford area (Bedfordshire), along with his orchestra during the Second World War. Close associations with residents of the region produced long lasting friendships, sometimes even marriage. At The Eagle pub in Cambridge (Cambridgeshire), and The Swan Hotel at Lavenham (Suffolk), airmen left their signatures on the ceiling/walls. The aircraft of the USAAF were the B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator - used by the Bombardment Groups (BG); and the P-51 Mustang, P-38 Lightning and P-47 Thunderbolt - used by the Fighter Groups (FG).

The subject of research, connected as it is with Scottish history, is one which appeals naturally to a Scottish student of English manorial history; for although it is well known that the Scottish kings held certain lands in England during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries little attention has been given to the details of these holdings. The personal association of David I and his heirs and of the ill-fated John Balliol with the Honour of Huntingdon, the Liberty of Tyndale and the Honour of Penrith is usually regarded as an incident of feudal tenure, and the sojourn of the Scottish kings on English soil has left no records other than the allowances and establish- ments of the royal household.

  • 1 Manorialization and Population Growth by Landlord Types And
    Manorialization and population growth by landlord types and landscape regions in Medieval England Junichi Kanzaka Soka University, Tokyo Abstract This paper examines the diverse processes of manorialization and population growth by landlord types and landscape regions in thirteenth century England. Factor analysis (maximum likelihood estimation and promax rotation) of the data from the Hundred Rolls identify three factors: classical structure, freedom, and demographic pressure. Manorialization characterized by the first two approximately independent factors differs by landlord type. Highly manorialized parishes were mainly occupied by the earlier-established ecclesiastical estates, while earls’ estates were relatively prominent in parishes where classical structures developed but free tenements were dominant. This study also reveals that many parishes were highly manorialized in the western and eastern champion regions of the Midlands and Chiltern. Furthermore, the factor of demographic pressure revealed other regional differences. While parishes in the western and eastern champion Midlands were manorialized in a similar way, the eastern part faced greater population pressure. However, the pressure in this region was still less than that in the south-eastern champion, and the East Anglian Heights. In the eastern champion Midlands, the size of villein holdings could be maintained, while in the latter two regions, villein plots fragmented and the number of free small tenements increased. 1 1. Introduction It is well known that several types of landlords built their estates in thirteenth century England. Furthermore, recently, archaeological and historical studies have revealed a variety of field systems and settlements in medieval England (Lewis et al., 2001; Robert and Wrathmell, 2002; Williamson, 2003; Jones and Page, 2006).
