The Extant Syon Abbey printed books and MSS have been extensively covered by Bateson (1898) Fletcher (FLE/15 and 16), Ker, with Watson, (1941 to 1987), de Hamel (1991), Bell (1995), Gillespie (2001) and all of which q.v. below. There is an overview of these authors and some new comments in Adams (2012, forthcoming), together with the current location of extant Syon MSS and printed books. Lost Syon MSS and books, as extracted from the Registrum (Library Catalogue) by its librarian Betson (Cambridge, Corpus Christi College Ms 141) are analysed in Bateson (1898) and Gillespie (2001) – see below. 2

There are also private papers regarding Syon Abbey and Syon House summarised in ‘Principal Family and Estate Collections, Family Names L to W’ (1999); HMSO, London. See: Percy (Dukes of Northumberland) pp60-61; and Seymour, Dukes of Somerset, p84.

Latter - STC 922.4. The address by the translator to his 'good devout religious daughters' says that he was asked to amend the English version of their rule, but found it 'so scabrous rough or rude' that he has translated it 'of new.' It was printed again by Wynkyn de Worde as 'The rule of Saynt Augustine both in latyn and Englysshe, with two Exposycyons. And also the same rule agayn onely in Englysshe without latyn or Exposycyon.' The longer exposition is that of St. Hugh of Victor, the shorter is Whitford's.

FISHBOURNE, THOMAS "Collacio proposita coram College Brigittini ordinis in Suecia, per generalem et primum confessorem de Sancta Syon in Anglia.". Incip. "Vide, domine, et considera." British Library Arundel MS 11, fol.177. Sermon delivered at Vadstena perhaps by Fishbourne - as an implicit critique of Vadstena and the Birgittine community for not trusting the true, original meaning of the Rule that focused on the nuns, and seeking to extend it with dispensations and indulgences. Syon’s recurring wish to return to the original intentions of Saint Birgitta may be detected: - ‘that excessive number of indulgences, granted by the Holy See, which …. overthrow our order and our Rule and prepare a road to her final destruction’ “.

Original Copy and a transcription of the document, which was used by Dunning. It records in summary form the amounts spent annually from 1461-1479 on what is described as the 'new church' together with some associated buildings. As it specifies costs that are incurred on the ladies' cloister, and in some cases it brackets cloister and dorter together, it may be inferred that the document is describing building operations on the sisters' side. 27

FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). National Archives Document SC 6/1261/2. Workmens' Costs of Building the ‘New Church’ in 1479/80. Original and transcription of TNA document SC 6/1261/2 relating to building costs at Syon for 1479/80, relating to the new church but are for the cloister, chapter house and library on the brothers' side. Dunning quotes this document. ‘Hardhewers’ apparently did the first rough work on the stone before the more skilled masons finished it. 'Plumbers' are lead workers, rather than just water and drainage specialists, and conceivably could have worked on roofs (and windows?) - but in this case the expenditure is modest.

FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). Church Building Work at Syon. NA Document SC 6/1261/3; possibly a continuation of SC 6/1106/26 (q.v.). Copy and transcript of TNA document SC 6/1261/3 dealing with construction costs. It is not dated, nor does it specifically mention Syon, but the National Archives places it there between 1479 and 1481, and it fits neatly into those parameters. Again, it is referred to by Dunning.

The spelling and writing are less consistent than other documents, and there are some rather strange words. Dunning refers to the 'furrying' and in a footnote quotes it as relating to timber working. It seems the iron was brought in by river and that the entry translates as 'iron bought with carriage, quaying and wharfage'. This may also infer SC 6/1261/3 is a continuation of SC 6/1106/26 which dealt with the 'new church' and cloister & dorter of the sisters from 1461-1479. The current document deals with expenditure incurred at the same time as SC 6/1261/2 accounting for £468= spent on the brothers' monastery.

FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). National Archives LR 2/112. 1539 Inventory of Syon Abbey. This document comprises some 46 pages and is an inventory taken by the Commissioners after the dissolution of Syon Abbey. It appears to be one of three parts. It is thus incomplete and deals mainly with the outhouses and some of the guest accommodation. It is in various hands. Some pages are very untidy, bearing the marks of being jotted down in situ. Others are more obviously fair copies made later. Some locations have multiple entries. Although the pages bear initials, and on page 27, signatures, it is undated as to day and month, but bears the regnal year 31 of Henry VIII’s reign thus placing it before 21 April 1540. Not transcribed completely, but a summary of its contents appears below. Dunning used this source for much of his information, although there are some locations not mentioned by him. There appears to be no immediate correlation to the ‘1604’ plan of Syon House or to the rooms mentioned in the Essex 1593 inventory. Also: Summary of the locations (Contents Summary LR 2/112) included in the draft inventory taken by the commissioners at the dissolution of the Abbey. Attached are examples of 3 of the 46 pages showing the handwriting from the impeccable (p.27) to the execrable (p.44) via the middling (p.40). The lead cistern features in the the Commissioners' 1539 28

inventory in the 'fresh fish house' where it is unvalued. Possibly it was broken up for scrap.

FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). 1 April 1548 - 7 October 1551. British Library account roll (MS Eg.2815). John Pickarell, Cofferer of the Household and Paymaster to the Works of the Duke of Somerset. '£8-6s-8d paide for thover throwing of the churche walles at Syon' For the period 1 April 1548 - 7 October 1551 and covers some £54,000 spent on household expenditure and building works at Somerset's five houses. In the detail appears this item: '£8-6s-8d paide for thover throwing of the churche walles at Syon'. This is obviously not major expenditure, and based on a labourer being paid 1s per day represents just under 167 man hours of work but it does gives us some firm documentary evidence about the existence of the walls and the treatment of the church. The only other evidence we have for the church post dissolution is the account of Henry VIII's body lying there in February 1547 (DNA microfilm M 342 in the BL), and the burial of four sisters in the church grave vaults in 1557 & 1558 (Martyrlogium fo.192b).

FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). Syon Accounts 1494/5 - TNA SC 6/HENVII/1715 Work on Abbey. Anno r[egni] r[egis] Henric[us] VII xj[imo]. Transcription of an account for work on and around the abbey for the year ended 19th December 1495. It shows much building activity, with a pulpit, confession houses and locutories. Dunning quotes most of the work described, expressing some frustration that the locations are not more precise. He attributes much of this work to the popularity of the abbey as a place for pilgrimage requiring extra facilities for lay visitors.

The outside of the roll describes it as being for the building of the church dorter and cloister, although the internal heading is couched in more general terms. There were significant amounts spent on lead, brick, timber, 29

carpentry and marble - not seen at the excavations. Again, this is a source quoted by Dunning.

Riksarkivet (Swedish National Archives) SDHK 19024, concerning the use of lead and copper on the roof at Vadstena, and its relevance for Syon Abbey – a letter after 1441 – Confessor General in Vadstena to Confessor General in Syon, with advice on the use of lead to the abbey church's roof, as it is produced and can be got hold of in England, while this is not the case with copper, and further to ensure that the roof height is in proportion to the width of the church, which has not been the case with the abbey in Vadstena, and is why it is now under heavy losses and they must build a new roof on it.

The address by the translator to his 'good devout religious daughters' says that he was asked to amend the English version of their rule, but found it 'so scabrous rough or rude' that he has translated it 'of new.' It was printed again by Wynkyn de Worde as 'The rule of Saynt Augustine both in latyn and Englysshe, with two Exposycyons. And also the same rule agayn onely in Englysshe without latyn or Exposycyon.' The longer exposition is that of St. Hugh of Victor, the shorter is Whitford's. The book is dated 28 November 1525.

"Vide, domine, et considera." Sermon delivered at Vadstena perhaps by Fishbourne - as an implicit critique of Vadstena and the Birgittine community for not trusting the true, original meaning of the Rule that focused on the nuns, and seeking to extend it with dispensations and indulgences. Syon’s recurring wish to return to the original intentions of Saint Birgitta may be detected: - ‘that excessive number of indulgences, granted by the Holy See, which .. overthrow our order and our Rule and prepare a road to her final destruction’ “.

FORBES, S. & PADEL, S (2011, unpublished) NA E101/504/18. Extracts regarding glass at Syon (Photograph and transcription by FORBES, S.) The 32 page document is shown in the NA catalogue as dating to either 1525 or 1529 and described as "? Syon". We were able to establish conclusively that it runs from November 1528 to September 1529, and that it does relate to Syon (one page clearly states the date; and references to the 'lady side', 'the master's side', and the 'Master Confessor' place it at Syon). It is a weekly journal of building wages, and a transcript of the extracts relating to payments to the five glasiers who worked there is attached. Their names are interesting as they all point to Flemish origin. 'The Douche', in particular, was the name given to glassworkers from Flanders. There is one reference to the puchase of Burgundy glass. The standard wage or a glasier was 6d a day. FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished).

Original Copy and a transcription of the document, which was used by Dunning. It records in summary form the amounts spent annually from 1461-1479 on what is described as the 'new church' together with some associated buildings. As it specifies costs that are incurred on the ladies' cloister, and in some cases it brackets cloister and dorter together, it may be inferred that the document is describing building operations on the sisters' side. The total is 10,000 marks - a coincidence, or a case of keeping within budget?

Original and transcription of TNA document SC 6/1261/2 relating to building costs at Syon for 1479/80, relating to the new church but are for the cloister, chapter house and library on the brothers' side. Dunning quotes this document. ‘Hardhewers’ apparently did the first rough work on the stone before the more skilled masons finished it. 'Plumbers' are lead workers, rather than just water and drainage specialists, and conceivably could have worked on roofs (and windows?) - but in this case the expenditure is modest.

John Pickarell, Cofferer of the Household and Paymaster to the Works of the Duke of Somerset. '£8-6s-8d paide for thover throwing of the churche walles at Syon' For the period 1 April 1548 - 7 October 1551 and covers some £54,000 spent on household expenditure and building works at Somerset's five houses. In the detail appears this item: '£8-6s-8d paide for thover throwing of the churche walles at Syon'. This is obviously not major expenditure, and based on a labourer being paid 1s per day represents just under 167 man hours of work but it does gives us some firm documentary evidence about the existence of the walls and the treatment of the church. The only other evidence we have for the church post dissolution is the account of Henry VIII's body lying there in February 1547 (DNA microfilm M 342 in the BL), and the burial of four sisters in the church grave vaults in 1557 & 1558 (Martyrlogium fo.192b).

It is not dated, nor does it specifically mention Syon, but the National Archives places it there between 1479 and 1481, and it fits neatly into those parameters. Again, it is referred to by Dunning. FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). Syon Accounts 1494/5 - TNA SC 6/HENVII/1715 Work on Abbey. Anno r[egni] r[egis] Henric[us] VII xj[imo]. Transcription of an account for work on and around the abbey for the year ended 19th December 1495. It shows much building activity, with a pulpit, confession houses and locutories. Dunning quotes most of the work described, expressing some frustration that the locations are not more precise. He attributes much of this work to the popularity of the abbey as a place for pilgrimage requiring extra facilities for lay visitors.

FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). Syon Accounts 1494/5 - TNA SC 6/HENVII/1715 - contains Lead Account. Lead came from the ‘Bole Hills’, presumably Sheffield although since 'bole' was a lead producing term the 'Bole Hills' could be anywhere. That shipment was late C15th. Carriage in the Bole Hills shipment was also by land - too heavy for water? Other entries in the account rolls, however, do mention charges for carriage by water, although not necessarily for lead. FORBES, S. (2011, unpublished). SC 6_HENVII_1717 Church, Dorter & Cloister. 1495-96. A transcription of a year's accounts for building work at Syon Abbey for the year ended 23rd December 1496. The outside of the roll describes it as being for the building of the church dorter and cloister, although the internal heading is couched in more general terms. There were significant amounts spent on lead, brick, timber, carpentry and marble - not seen at the excavations. Again, this is a source quoted by Dunning. 65

The three oldest manuscripts are generated within Brigittine surroundings, both at Syon Abbey and in exile from England.... In a continuum from the fourteenth to the twentieth centuries, they preserve material that has its birth in Birgitta of Sweden's Revelationes ....An earlier version of this essay was published in The Tablet, 11 May 1996, and is reproduced here [on website] by kind permission of the Editor of The Tablet.
