Description

Grant of Bishop Richard, concerning the annexation of the prebend of Horton to the bishopric and the threat of excommunication if the rights of the bishop as prebendary of Horton were violated. Much of the document is obscured by staining, but a transcription is available on p.95 of Rev. W. Dunn Macray (ed.), Salisbury Charters and Documents (1891). It roughly translates as follows: it was previously decided that the bishop would be admitted to secrets of the chapter as one of the canons and would join the prebend to the bishopric. If anyone dared to violate the bishop's rights as prebendary then they would be excommunicated. See also pp.85-6 of Dunn Macray - the prebend of Major Pars Altaris is exchanged for Horton.
