Title
Gillingham Against Stourton
Date
1365 - 1437
Quantity & Format
1 petition
Description
Document with writing on both sides. One side has 'libell[us] c[ontr]a Gyllyngh[a]m cont[ra] Stourton' written at the top. A petition ?to Canterbury of the Dean and Chapter of the Cathedral against Richard Stourton, rector of the parish or prebend of Gillingham. The reverse has 'Inter recorda de termi[n]o [?Sanctae] Trinitatis...'. This side is particularly stained and faded, but appears to be a memorandum with calculations - the paper catalogue suggests it is 'about transaction in the Exchequer (of Receipt?), perhaps to do with the subsidy of the clergy, and also apparently the king of France.' It is not clear whether this item relates to Gillingham Minor or Major; it has been assigned to the Gillingham Minor sub-series as it was found with an item relating to Gillingham Minor.
