The following pages are printed from a manuscript belonging to the
Corporation of Gloucester, numbered 1365. It is in the form of a roll, consisting
of twelve membranes of parchment joined one to another by stitches of black
silk thread. In length the roll measures 33 feet, and in breadth 14^ inches.
It is in good preservation, with the exception of a few lines at the beginning
that have become defaced by frequent rolling and unrolling of the MS.
The roll is written throughout in a large and bold hand. The columns are
bounded by lines in red, and the initial C's placed against the tenements
paying landgavel and the amount of the landgavel are also in that colour.
In the first half of the roll the names of the various monastic establishments
owning property in the borough are written in the margin in red against the
passages relating to their tenements.1 The initial letters of each paragraph are
rubricated in blue and red throughout the first skin, and in one or two cases
in the next membrane, but afterwards the red ornamentation ceases, and, in
the second half of the roll, even the initials are omitted. These omitted letters
are supplied within brackets in .this volume, there being no difficulty in
supplying them as they are, as usual in MSS., indicated in the margin by
small letters for the use of the rubricator, whose duty it was to put in the
initials subsequently. The street names and lettering under the drawings are
sometimes written in black picked out with red, and are sometimes written
wholly in red.
* The last of these marginal notes occurs printed text. It has been found necessary to omit
against the last entry at page 46, col. 1, of the these marginal references in printing the work.

vi INTRODUCTION
The compiler of this roll was, as we, learn from the heading at page 2,
Robert Cole, an Austin Canon from Llanthony Priory without Gloucester.
He describes himself as ' Renter ' of Gloucester. This title is, unfortunately,
of uncertain meaning. He cannot very well mean that he collected the whole
of the rents in the borough, and it does not seem likely that he was merely
the rent-collector of Llanthony Priory. He may have been the collector of
the rents due to the Bailiffs or Stewards of the borough, for we may fairly
assume that he held some yuasi-official position under the Mayor and Bailiffs.
It was not an unusual thing, even in the fifteenth century, for municipalities
to employ clergymen, chaplains, etc., to do what clerical work they required.
There can be little doubt that Cole was so employed at Gloucester, at all
events during the compilation of this roll. But the most probable meaning
of his description as ' Renter ' is that he was the collector, on behalf of the
Bailiffs, of the landgavel or landgavel rent, as it was frequently called.1 Cole
seems to have drawn up, in conjunction with Richard Steymon, another terrier
of Gloucester, for David Matthew, also a Canon of Llanthony, who compiled
a rental of the town in 1535, describes it as containing 'all rentes and
tenementes apperteyninge unto the towne, chanon, and kechyner yat is in
pesable possessyon, omittinge all other out of this rowle, referrynge alsoe the
reder hereof unto the terytory of the towne made by Richard Steymon and
Robert Cole for ferther knowledge.'2 It is obvious that the 'terytory' thus
described is not the roll here printed, for, in addition to the absence in this
roll of any mention of Steymon, Matthew gives the folio in Steymon and Cole's
'terytory' for each house described in his own rental. Now it would be a most
unusual thing to cite a roll by folios, and there is, moreover, no numeration
whatever in the roll here printed. It is, therefore, obvious that Matthew refers
to another rental drawn up in book form. This may have been the draught of
the present roll, which is clearly a clean copy. But if we accept this conclusion,
we must assume not only that Matthew referred to the draught instead of to

vn

the authoritative Latin roll, but also that Cole, when he came to write this
roll, wholly ignored Steymon's share in the work. Against the former objection
it may be urged- that Matthew does unaccountably cite the book instead of
the roll. As to the latter objection, it certainly does appear that Cole has
suppressed all reference to Steymon's participation in the work, for we can hardly
assume that, after Cole had completed the present exhaustive rental, there
was any necessity to compile another one. Thus, then, Cole and Steymon's
'terytory,' whatever it was, must have been compiled before this roll. It may
be that Cole considered his additional labours in correcting the draught, dressing
it up in Latin, and carefully engrossing it on this roll justified him in claiming
the whole credit of what must have been, to a great extent, a lab©ur of
love on his part..
The primary object of this work was clearly that of facilitating the
collection of the landgavel by putting upon record the liability or non-liability
of each tenement to pay it. With this object in view Cole has laboriously
traced the history and devolution of each holding from the earliest rolls
accessible to him. These rolls he occasionally speaks of as * rentals ' and
' landgavels.' * His earliest roll appears to have been of the time of Henry III.,
for his particulars usually commence with that reign. He speaks of an ' old
roll ' at p. 10 b, an ' old landgavel ' at pp. 46 b, 92 b, which may possibly
refer to an earlier roll.2 The 'old rolls' of p. 102 appears to be a general
reference, which must not he pressed too much. His roll of Henry the Third's.
time appears to have been compiled rather early in his reign, judging from the
names of the tenants. It is possible, however, that he may have had more
than one roll of this reign. He occasionally mentions as tenants in the time

1 Below, 30 b, 64, 66. The ' rental ' referred
to at p. 12 may be a Llanthony rental, for he
occasionally gives details that were probably
derived from the Llanthony muniments. It is
noticeable that he speaks of land belonging to
Llanthony Priory as ' our ' land at p. 66. In the
same way Matthew refers to ' ower servaunt.'
2 The ' W. Bannebury ' mentioned in the ' old
langavel' at p. 46 b is, apparently, the Walter of

Banbury who occurs in the Gloucester deeds- of
King John's time. But the quotation may only
mean that his name was associated with the shops
and land after his death. The ' old landgavel '
of p. 92 may refer to John's reign, but it cannot
be said with any confidence that it does. At
p. 82 he quotes from a roll of the reign of
Henry II., but this is possibly a mistake for
Edward II.

of Edward I. men who seem to have died long before the commencement of
that reign.1 Probably similar confusions will be found also in the later reigns.
Cole frequently refers to the rolls that he was using by saying ' it is entered '
(titulatur) or ' it is written ' (scribitur), sometimes giving the reign to which
the roll belonged and quoting its wording.2 He generally gives the names of
owners, etc., for the reigns of Henry III., Edward I., Edward II., and
Edward III., and, occasionally, of Richard II. After that period his details
are very brief, probably because he was then within two or three generations
of his own time. That the rolls used by Cole were landgavel rolls is proved
by the fact that he does not trace the history of the properties that did not
pay landgavel. They were, of course, not mentioned in the landgavel rolls.
What few particulars he gives concerning them must, therefore, have been derived
from other sources. He intended to give the measurements of each house, etc.,
and left a place at the end of each entry for the insertion of these particulars,
which he, however, never filled in.

Bonenfant is called ' Bonifaunt ' in Cole's roll, and

a mistake, for Bonenfant died in 1250; Exc. e

similar note occurs at p. 22 b. At p. 58 he notes

It may be added that Cole carefully copies the
dotted /s in the early rolls.

1 The Elias, son of Isaac, temp. Hen. III., of
p. 96 b, is, apparently, the Elias the Jew of
Gloucester who occurs in 1206; Rotuli de Oblatis,

for on that day his widow Mirabel paid 15 marks
in order that she might have his houses; Idem,

that had belonged to Elias the Jew ; Rotuli

clear, therefore, that this Elias died before the
reign of Henry III. An Isaac the Jew, of
Gloucester, is mentioned in the Pleas of the Crown,
co. Gloucester, 1221, ed. Maitland, p. 136. We
may safely identify the Misabel the Jewess of
p. 44 b with Mirabel (Mirabilis) the widow of the
Elias who died in 12 15. She was acquitted, in

INTRODUCTION ix
The rolls used by Cole in compiling his own roll have been destroyed.
The Corporation possesses two other returns of landgavel, but they are mere
lists of the sums paid by the different tenements, giving the barest possible
details and omitting all mention of the tenements that did not pay landgavel.
The first of these, No. 1366, is a roll drawn up in the reign of Edward IV.
The total of the landgavel in it is ^"io 15s. 7%d'., which agrees with the
total of Cole's roll. The next return is. that of Christopher White, about 1550,
referred to above, page vi., note 1. The total of this return is given, in an
1 8th century hand,, as £8 18s. 2d.
There is a very early return of the landgavel of Gloucester preserved
in the Register of Evesham Abbey in the Cottonian MS. Vespasian B. XXIV.
in the British Museum.1 This volume is written in various hands of the 12th
and 13th centuries.2 This return was believed by Sir Henry Ellis to be possibly
a copy of the one that was made by the Commissioners from whose returns the
Domesday Survey was corr piled in 1086. But this date is somewhat too early,
as appears from an examination, of the names in the list. These limit the date
between June 15,. 1096, and July 26,. 1101. Sir Francis Palgrave, who was the
first to call attention to this return,, believed it to be a portion of the Survey
made by Ranulph Flambard, the. notorious minister of William II. But the
passage in Ordericus Vitalis upon which Palgrave relies does not assert that
Flambard made a new survey, and, in any case, this cannot be a portion of
such survey.3 Mr J. H. Round, to whom I am indebted for a knowledge of
this return, has suggested a far more probable meaning for Orderic's mysterious
passage.4 A translation of this early return is given in the Appendix to this
introduction. This is founded upon a fresh collation of the MS.
It is difficult to compare this return with the present roll for, owing
to the lapse of time between the date of the two returns, there had been

INTRODUCTION

considerable changes in the number of houses, etc. The difference between
the total of the landgavel of the two is, no doubt, to be accounted for by the
houses destroyed in forming a site for the Castle and by the other houses
described as 'waste.' The earlier return includes 300 houses on the King's
demesne and 313 (inclusive of the 23 houses pertaining to King's Barton)
belonging to other lords. Cole's roll contains 310 entries of properties paying
landgavel and 346 of exempt properties.1 It will thus be seen that the tenements
in Cole's roll paying landgavel roughly correspond to the houses in the King's
demesne of the . earlier return, whilst the exempt properties represent the
possessions of the other owners. These latter were not exempt from paying
landgavel, but they paid it to their chief lords instead of to the King;2 for
landgavel was paid by the King's tenants in demesne to him as lord not as
king, landgavel being, as has been ably pointed out by Mr J. H. Round, a
seigneurial and not a crown due. The landgavel from the King's demesne was
collected by the Bailiffs of Gloucester, as stated at the head of this roll,
because the Burgesses farmed the borough of the King, i.e., they paid him a
fixed sum for his ordinary revenues arising from the borough, which were
therefore received by them.3
Landgavel is a compound of land with the Old-English gafol, which
is etymologically connected with give, and hence means ' tax, tribute, rent,' etc.

* This does not take account of the number of
houses covered by each entry, which in many cases
is not given. Besides this, the roll shows that
tenements were frequently divided, so that one
original holding might appear as several, the land
gavel being sometimes divided amongst the new
tenements so created. It was sometimes tied upon
one only of the tenements, so that most of the new
tenements were free from landgavel. This is the
meaning of the numerous acquittances of landgavel
in the deeds in the possession of the Corporation.
2 Thus in 12 18 the Abbot and Convent of
Gloucester granted certain lands in Gloucester to
the Archbishop of York, in exchange for others
granted by him to them to enable them to increase
the abbey court and enclose it with a wall near the
town wall on the north near St. Oswald's Priory.

In the deed the land is conveyed to the Archbishop
'with all landgavel and suits and other customs,'
whilst the property conveyed by him is described
as ' the suit and landgavel of such a sum from the
land that belonged to so-and-so.' See the Register
of Abp. Walter de Gray, Surtees Society, Appendix,
p. 217. Comp. also the Cartularium Sancti Petri
Gloucestriae, i. 25. So also landgavel due to the
Abbot of St. Peter is mentioned in the above
chartulary, ii. 5, 8, 237 ; and landgavel due to the
fee of Wick at i. 187. Other instances will be
found in the Calendar of the Corporation Records.
3 Thus when Edward III. in 1371 demised the
borough of Bristol to two men, the rents and
landgavels occur in the enumeration of revenue
included in the ferm; Madox, Firma Burgi,
p. 262, note n.

INTRODUCTION xi
It is, therefore, x difficult to decide whether landgavel was originally a species
of tribute or a rent, but whatever its origin, it acquired the character of a chief
rent paid to the lord of the fee. It thus happens that the landgavel is, as in
this roll, much less than the actual rent paid by the tenant.
In printing this roll, an endeavour has been made to represent, as nearly
as typography would allow, the arrangements of the original. For some distance
down the roll Cole makes the two columns represent the two sides of the
street, and in printing care has been taken to make the paragraphs in the two
columns face each other as they do in the original. Of course this arrangement
has not been adhered to when Cole is describing the houses in the side streets,
for these streets are given at the ends of the main streets and the two sides
of the bye streets follow one another in the same column. The paragraphs
in these cases have no reference whatever to those facing them in the other
column, which may relate to houses in a bye street on the other side of the
main street. It is possible that the paragraphs facing each other in the main
streets do not represent houses facing one another, but it has been thought
well to adhere to the original in this particular.. This will account for the
occasional blank columns, etc., that will be noticed in the volume. In the
centre of the streets Cole gives drawings of the churches, chapels, wells, etc.1
The position of these drawings have been carefully recorded in the printed
text, as it was found impossible to insert the drawings in their places without
materially increasing the size of the pages. The drawings are therefore given
together at the end of this introduction, and are referred to in the body of the
book by numbers. These drawings appear to be largely conventional, although
it is noticeable that the truncated spire of St. Nicholas is duly represented.
Cole has availed himself of the blank parchment afforded by the back of
the roll to give an elaborate pedigree of the Kings of England. This is
printed at page 117. sqq. Such pedigrees are not infrequently met with amongst
the muniments of our old families, and they are often beautifully illuminated.
A few of these have been printed by the late Thomas Wright under the

xii INTRODUCTION
title of Feudal Manuals of English History, 1872. Cole's pedigree is
elaborately constructed, and the arrangements are admirable. Unfortunately,
it has been found impossible to reproduce them in print. The description of
each King is given in the centre of a large green circle, which is connected
by a thick green line with the circle of the next King, so that these circles
represent at a glance the succession of the Kings irrespective of their relationship
to one another. This is indicated by small red circles containing the names
of the children after the account of their father's reign, the sons who become
sovereigns being connected by red lines with the green circles giving particulars
of their Kingship. These red circles enable Cole to give the numerous collateral
descents, which are admirably represented. The whole work is most skilfully
arranged. In the historical accounts of each reign Cole has, it will be noticed,
given prominence to events that happened in the neighbourhood of Gloucester.
His notice of the Battle of Tewkesbury is especially interesting.
There is a complete copy of this roll and pedigree, made by the
indefatigable Archdeacon Furney, preserved in the Bodleian Library (MS. Top.
Glouc. C. I. Furney). I am indebted to the Rev. David Royce, M.A., the learned
editor of the Winchcombe Chartulary, for a knowledge of the existence of this
copy. It is in a very large quarto volume, and appears to be carefully done.
In the Appendix to this introduction will be found an account of the
streets in Gloucester in 1535, derived from the rent roll drawn up in that year
by David Matthew (Corp. Records, No. 1368). This account has already been
printed in Fosbroke's History of Gloucester, p. 69, but very inaccurately,
' Scrudlane,' for instance, being converted into an impossible ' St. Ebrug Lane.'
This roll appears to be a copy of somewhat later date than it purports, and is
in the same hand as the marginal notes given at p. 126 below.
I cannot take leave of this work without tendering my thanks to
Mr Bellows for the amount of time and care that he has devoted to the
typographical portion of this book. The work has proved most difficult to
represent in type, and the labour connected with its production has been very
much greater than could possibly have been anticipated. The draughts made

upon the patience of Mr Bellows and his staff have been very great indeed ;
and I feel that it would be indeed ungrateful not to record my sense of the
pleasure it has been to me to have had throughout a very tedious work the
support of Mr Bellows' invaluable co-operation and unfailing courtesy. Next to
Mr Bellows, I am chiefly indebted to the Town Clerk (G. Sheffield Blakeway, Esq.),
who has ungrudgingly met the numerous demands made upon his time and
patience during the preparation of this work and its passage through the press.

300 burgesses in demesne, rendering _^i8 and 10s. of gavel (de gablo) by year. Of these there are

1 The Archbishop of. York does not appear in Domesday as
an owner in Gloucester, so that he probably had no property
there until St. Oswald's Priory was granted to him as part of
the compensation for taking Lincoln out of his diocese. This
was after the consecration of Robert Bloet as Bishop of
Lincoln on February 12, 1094; Raine, Fasti Eboracenses, p.
151 ; Freeman, William Rufus, i. 447.

3 In Domesday Book, i. 166 a, col. 2, the Abbey of St.
Denis (near Paris), to which Deerhurst Priory was confirmed
by William the Conqueror, is entered as having 30 burgesses
in Gloucester belonging to the manor of Caneberton.

IV., which agrees with the entry in Domesday, i. 166 a, col. I,
where we read that the Abbot of Evesham had four burgesses
in Gloucester pertaining to his manor of Bradewelle.

1101 ; Ordericus Vitalis, ed. le Prevost, iv. ill. He is
entered in Domesday, i. 166 b, col. 1, as having 11 burgesses
in Gloucester belonging to his manor of Bisley.

the latter's banishment in 1096; Ordericus Vitalis, iii. 411 ;

Martin of Troarn (arr. of Caen, dep. of Calvados, Normandy)
is recorded to hold Horseley of the gift of King William, a
house in Gloucester rendering 6d. being one of the appur
tenances.

the Orne, Normandy) married Agnes, daughter of Hugh of
Grandmesnil ; Ord. Vital., iii. 361. He witnesses charters to
St. Evroul in 1113 and in 1 123-8 ; Id., v. 199, 204.

Hamelin of Ballon died on the third nones of March, in the
reign of William Rufus, according to the history of the founder
of Abergavenny Priory; Monasticon, iv. 615. This would fix
the date of this return as prior to March 5, I loo, but the
history contains so many blunders that its evidence cannot be
relied upon. See Round, Ancient Charters, i. 44.
" If this refers to Prince Henry, who was Earl of the
Cotentin during his brother's reign, the date of this return must
be prior to his accession to the throne, August 5, uoo. This
has been suggested by Lappenberg, Geschichie von England,
ii. 168, note 2 ; transl. by Thorpe, p. 226. Freeman, William
Rufus, ii. 564, rejects this suggestion, and thinks that the Earl
Henry is ' surely Henry [of Beaumont] Earl of Warwick.'
In Domesday, i. 169 a, col. I, we read that Henry of Ferrers
had one burgess in Gloucester pertaining to his manor of
Lecelade. This seems to suggest that the Earl Henry is
Henry of Ferrers, who is not otherwise known to have borne
this title. His son (?) Robert was created Earl of Derby in
1138; Ord. Vital., v. 112. As the records of the creation of
earls by Rufus are very imperfect, it is not improbable that he
may have conferred this dignity upon Henry of Ferrers.
•s In Domesday Book, i. 162 a, col. 1, Geoffrey of Mandeville
is entered as holding the above houses in Gloucester. William
of Mandeville was the Constable of the Tower in 1101, when
Ranulph Flambard escaped from it ; Ord. Vital, , iv. 108.

1 Roger of Ivry (Ivry-la-Bataille, canton of St. Andre,
arrond. of Evreux, dep. of the Eure, Normandy), a name
that appears in the Chartulary of St. Peter's Abbey, Gloucester,
as furei, Hiuerio and Highbray ! His actions as Sheriff of
Gloucester are mentioned in Domesday, 1. 162 b, coll. I, 2,
and 164 a, col. 2. At 169 a, col. I, he is identified as * Roger
the Sheriff, father of Walter '—that is Walter of Gloucester
(see next note). In 1069 Roger witnessed the Conqueror's
confirmation of the gift of Deerhurst to St. Denis ; Monasticon,
iv. 666. Roger was butler (pincema) of the King and in
command of the castle at Rouen in 1078 ; Ord. Vital., ii. 296.
Shortly before this he founded the Abbey of Ivry ; Id., iii. 414.
As brother in arms of Robert of Oilli he is well-known in
Oxford history. See Freeman, Norman Conquest, iv. 735 ;
Parker, Early History of Oxford, pp. 206-9, 255- 1° a deed
of 1164-1179, regarding the parochial rights in the site of
Gloucester Castle, he is called Roger of Pistres (= Pitres,
canton of Pont-de-1'Arche, arrond. of Louviers, dep. of the
Eure) ; Cart. S. Petri, i. p. lxxvi. He is there said to have
been the first Constable of Gloucester Castle after the Conquest,
and to have been succeeded as Constable by his brother
Durand of Pistres and by Walter of Gloucester. This post
then carried with it the Shrievalty of Gloucester. Durand was
S*heriff when the Domesday Survey was taken in 1086 (i.
168 b, col. 2, et passim). Roger seems to have died about
this time, for he occurs as a witness in 1080 (Cart. S. Petri,
i- 375), and the King, in 1086, confirmed a grant to St. Peter's
Abbey that his son Walter had made for his (Roger's) soul ;

Id., i. 334. Yet Roger is entered in the Survey as a tenant,
though in one case (164 b, col. 2) his brother Durand holds
land that Roger had received from Earl William [of Hereford].
In 1087, his Norman lands are mentioned as being ravaged
by the French ; Ord. Vit., iii. 222. Heming records that
Roger unjustly deprived Worcester of Hampton, co. Glouc,
when Bishop Wulfstan was absent in legatione Regis at
Chester ; Chartularium, i. 281 ; Monasticon, i. 598 a. This
was in 1070 ; Vita Wlstani in Anglia Sacra, ii. 256. See
Round, Domesday Studies, i. 198. According to Heming, he
subsequently incurred the King's enmity, was deprived of his
possessions, and died in exile. Roger married Adelina,
daughter of Hugh of Grandmesnil ; Ord. Vit., iii. 361. She
appears in Cart. S. Petri, i. 188, as ' Adeliz the Viscountess '
(Viscount = Sheriff) and, i. 1 76, as ' Aelyna, wife of Roger of
Jureio.' She was a benefactor of the Abbey ; Id. i. 123, 177,
223, 226, 350; ii. 19, 261. She died in mi ; Chron.
Mon. de Abingdon, ii. 72 sqq.
* Walter the Sheriff was the son of Roger of Ivri, and
succeeded his uncle (Domesday, i. 186 b bis) as Sheriff after
1086. He is the Walter of Gloucester of the present return,
and frequently appears, under both names, and under that of
Walter the Constable, in the Cart. S. Petri. Between H09
and 1 1 1 1 he had a grant of land in front of Gloucester Castle ;
Round, Ancient Charters, i. 4. He died about 1128 ; Id. i.
40, etc.
3 Sir Henry Ellis prints this ' lx. sol.' (60s.), but the MS.
has plainly enough ' lx. Ii.,' as given by Palgrave.

the King that they were not poisoned. There is no
contemporary record of the poisoning of King John by
the Swineshead monk, the account that is adopted by
Shakespeare. Roger of Wendover, ii. 196, followed by
Matthew of Paris, ii. 668, simply says that John died of
a surfeit of pears and new cider. Thomas Wykes
(Annates Monastici, iv. 59) has already the tale of the
poisoning, although he gives it with reserve. Walter
of Hemingborough, i. 252, is the author who really

gave it currency, as his account was followed by
Ranulph Higden, in his Polychronicon, viii. 196, the great
history book of the later Middle Ages in England.

Germ, scheuer, ' barn,' etc., and in French

IN this Index the columns are distinguished, the first column being referred to by the number of the
page solely, and the second column by the number of the page plus the letter b. When an entry
occurs twice under one reference, the word bis is added ; when it occurs thrice ter is similarly added.
If it occur more than thrice, the word saepe is added. An attempt has been here made to distinguish the
periods in which the various persons lived, but as this is not invariably done in the MS., their epochs
cannot always be given. Variations of spelling, with the exception of the numerous interchanges of /and y,
are recorded under the first of each name.
