REPORT.

AGAIN in this the third year of its existence, I have the pleasure of being able to give a good report of the state and prospects of our Society.

The number of its members has increased from 121 to 134, and the finances, as will be seen in the annexed account, are in a satisfactory state.

It may be as well, however, to note that it will probably be necessary, as time goes on, to spend more money for transcriptions than has been the case hitherto. Through the generosity of our Editors, who have given not only their time and labour to the usual work of an Editor, but have also provided the texts, the Society has been saved very heavy expenses, but it can hardly be expected that this will always be so.

Our next volume will be a set of Churchwardens' Accounts from several parishes, chiefly between the years 1450 and 1570. It is already in progress under the Editorship of Bishop Hobhouse, and promises to be a volume of peculiar interest in the vivid picture it will give of the actual life of our country parishes in past times.

VIEW OF THE WORK AND THE INTENTIONS I HAD WHEN I

BEGAN IT ; AND NOTICES OF THE DIFFERENT DIVISIONS OF TERRITORY.

So much of the document called Kirby's Quest is here given as concerns this county. I have had it by me for many years. It was copied to use for the identification of Domesday, and to explain the topography of our county. Collinson is usually right in

ix b

preface.

the modern names he gives to the Manors described in Domesday ; his identifications are on the whole very good indeed and praise- worthy, and it is plain that great pains have been taken by whoever helped him in this part of his work ; but he is sometimes wrong, and we have no means of testing when this is so. Neither in the Exchequer Domesday nor in the copy at Exeter is any note made of the Hundred in which the Manor is situate ; in the counties where this is done identification is easy ; here it is difficult

It seems desirable, therefore, to trace up the history of our Hundreds to the earliest time ; to make out the places in them and those who held them ; and having done so we shall be able in almost all cases to identify the Domesday Manors.

The earliest record I know of the Somerset Hundreds is in the curious matter annexed to the Exon. Domesday, the accounts of the Fegadri or tax-gatherers of the gheld for Somerset, probably in 1086, two years before Domesday. For each Hundred which paid any tax at all there are given (i) the number of hides, (2) the number for which the King has his gheld, (3) how many hides the Barones Regis have in demesne, (4) any hides or carucates which were exempt, and lastly, the hides for which gheld had not been collected. Each hide paid six shillings, and for the most part the total of the hides at this rate corresponds correctly with the totals of details. The tax appears to have been paid by the tenants or villani. The Barones Regis seem to have been exempt.

In these lists persons are enumerated as Barons who probably never had any right to the title as for instance in the first list that of Taunton and Pitminster are " Presbyteri de Tantona," who held two hides and a quarter, and must have held under the Bishop of Winchester, and not in capite under the King himself which would alone qualify them to be what are now called Peers. It may be well to remember thai Baron was of old a large word possibly equivalent to free-man but a King's Baron looks very like a Peer ; and it is curious that two hundred years later, in Kirby's Quest, the great hold- ing under Glastonbury of Cecilia de Beauchamp, which in Domesday was held by Roger de Corcelles, is called the Barony of Dunden.

preface.

In these gheld lists places are very seldom mentioned, but the names given of tenants in capite and of under-tenants give great help to identify the Manors in each Hundred. These lists have been used by the Rev. R. W. Eyton for Dorset and Somerset with much sagacity. There are, however, in some cases obvious errors, and he has had to assume others in order to make the Manors of each Hun- dred fit into it, and in some cases to alter the Hundreds, and upon the whole it would be satisfactory to get additional evidence to correct or confirm the results, and it is to give this evidence so far as it can be got at present that is my object in preparing this book. That Mr. Eyton is not wrong in assuming that the Hundreds have been altered is plain. The present Hundred of Pitney does not occur as a Hundred in the earlier lists here published, nor yet in the Hundred rolls of the beginning of the reign of Edward I. Pitney is mentioned as a "free manor," and it has "members" which are in the Hundred now : the rest of it has been made up since. The present Hundred of Whitley, named after a wood in Walton, where the ruins of the Hundred house still remain, was made up after the Conquest out of Loxley Hundred, named after a wood in Shapwick, famous long after- wards for the hop step and jump in Monmouth's time, of Reynold's Way Hundred, named from an ancient road along the eastern part of Polden Hill, and of Ham and Monkton and Sowey, then called Hun- dreds, which are now the parishes of High Ham and West Monkton, and the district of Middlezoy Weston Zoyland and Othery. On the other hand, Bruton Hundred has been subdivided into Catash and Norton Ferris, and there have been many other alterations. Besides these gheld accounts Exon. Domesday contains two lists of Somerset Hundreds, the names in which are not identical with those in the accounts. A careful examination, and the help of other persons, may explain difficulties ; at present I will merely remark that the guess of Mr. James Bennett that Ashley Hundred in one of the lists may be Catash is worthy of attention, and it points to what is quite possible, that the Hundreds which seem to have been sub- sequently subdivided were really not united at all except in the accounts of the Fegadri.

preface.

After Domesday the next evidence we have is the Hundred Rolls. After the death of Henry III, writs were sent to the Sheriffs to return the state of the Royal property, which had suffered much during his reign. The statements of the juries have been printed by the Record Commission. Those for Somerset are not so full or so instructive as those for some of the counties in the centre of England, but they con- tain curious matter, especially concerning Somerton, and it might have been well to give the matter of them under each Hundred.

The next evidence is Kirby's Quest ; then the Nomina Villarum of the Qth of Edward II ; then the Tax Rolls, which are classed at the Record Office in Chancery Lane as Exchequer Lay Subsidies, with the proper numbers for each county and date, of which the earliest that is complete for this county is that of the 1st of Edward III, giving the state of things at Michaelmas, 1327. It is here given at length, and is a most valuable document, and it seems to me to throw a flood of light on the state of Somerset at that time.

NOTICE OF THE DIFFERENT DIVISIONS OF TERRITORY.

Kirby's Quest sometimes mentions Manors as Domesday does, for the most part recognizing the more important districts as Manors, not improbably those which had been understood to be specially important jurisdictions. Sometimes the districts are called vills, townships possibly, certainly not townships like those in the north of England, which, so far as I know, did not exist in Somerset. It will be seen presently that vills here had not always the same meaning. In most cases no special name is given to the district. The " Nomina Villarum " is a return of the vills and the lords of them, each being bound to find a soldier. There is here curious information of the hamlets supposed then to be dependent on the vills, which seem to have been something like the larger parishes we have now, but not always identical with them. The Exchequer Lay Subsidies purport to be made up of vills which are frequently not the same as the vills just mentioned generally much smaller.

xii

The word vill seems to me to have been used carelessly and to be indefinite.* Taxation has, I believe, always been arranged according to Tythings, which remain now for tax purposes, especially land tax. They were the Highway districts until the new Highway law was enacted, and it was then found convenient to get rid of them. When there were several in one parish no objections were made to consolidation, for though it might in many cases be unfair that a Tything which had few roads in it should pay for those of the rest of the parish, it was on the whole much more convenient to do away with the Highway rate, and make the Poor-rate serve for all purposes. When the Tythings extended into different parishes their continued existence made a separate Highway rate indispensable, and it was obviously convenient to abolish them. Manors as well as parishes and tythings extended in ancient times far and wide, with scattered por- tions called " members," sometimes consisting of whole parishes, more frequently of smaller portions, sometimes very small. Many of these outlying parts have been got rid of by degrees, by alterations such as have been made of late years of the parishes. The new Ordnance Map has a beautiful simplicity of ring fences, which is quite different from the fantastic irregularity of ancient times.

It is well to be careful not to confound these subdivisions of territory with one another, and certainly it is often very rash to suppose them to be identical, and very interesting are some of the outlying parts, and worthy of study.

The Tything, the villata of the Exchequer Lay Subsidies, is that which seems to vary least in size, and therefore possibly may be the oldest. Sir Francis Palgrave threw out the suggestion that it may have been the ancient Celtic division of the country, and if this be so it is here that we may find traces of the Roman Centuriae ; for it would be rash to suppose that Sir F. Palgrave was taking us back

* Martock is but one parish. In " Nomina Villarum," page 67, it is made up of three vills with their chapelries, and it looks as if there were some sort of intention of making the vills into parishes. In the "Exchequer Lay Subsidies," page 129, we find ten or eleven vills, one of them far away in Combe St. Nicholas parish. If villa and villata are indefinite words, villanus may well be indefinite also.

to pre-Roman times. Manors were certainly older than Domesday, which merely recorded the transfer of them to new possessors ; smaller manors have always been included partly at least in larger manors, and there seems to have been power to divide them continually until the Statute of Quia Emptores, the i8th of Edward I, 1289-90. Whether this power was often exercised I know not ; it is not safe to suppose that because a law or a power existed much was done in consequence of it, and I am disposed to doubt whether manors were divided, though strange things were done, as in the case of Long Ashton (see page 29). But there are many cases in Kirby where four men held under one another,* and there was plenty of

Sandford Arundel, page 15, said to be held by William Crispin, Roger de Arundel, John de Valletorte, Barony of Dunden.

If in this case the holding was under Glastonbury also, which does not seem to me consistent with Domesday, there are here five. A case of eight is given below :—

reason for the statute which provided that in future when a sale was made of land the purchaser should come into the place of the vendor, instead of holding under him in fee, and so prevent a further extension of the confusion which made the over-lord uncertain who owed him rights of escheats, marriages, and wardships, so that the lords through the confusion lost their rights. When there was a sale of lands in a manor, the lord's dues were to be apportioned equitably. In this case I suppose the strict law to have been previously that a new manor was made, though I doubt if that was the case in Somerset, and if so the formation of new manors was put an end to by the Act. And it has always been understood that no new manor could be created.

The origin of parishes is obscure. The word in its ecclesiastical sense originally meant diocese. In Italy earlier than elsewhere it seems to have taken our meaning. The steps must have been slow, and different in different countries, by which the city ceased to be altogether the missionary centre of its diocese, and priests were established elsewhere, at first supported on the estates they were enormous in Somerset, and apparently dating from the English Conquest given to the Bishops, who, probably with the assent of their clergy, managed the whole. The priests would afterwards be dependent on the tithes they could get out of the districts assigned to them, with more or less of certainty ; and last of all, each of them with a definite district, filling up the country pretty nearly, each being the Persona of his district and having the tithes. This allotment of the whole country into ecclesiastical districts is not absolutely complete now. There were until very lately extra- parochial districts, generally very small, which are now made by law into separate secular parishes.

What we have now to deal with is the question when the boundaries of the parishes were assigned to them, and this is by no means easy to answer.

The change was much later here. In the gheld accounts under the Honour of the Bishop will be found a notice of Presbyteri Parochiales, who either would not or could not pay their gheld. The

xv

large numbers of ecclesiastics who were in this condition makes me think that they may have been exempt, influence being used with the Court, I suppose I may call it the Court of Exchequer, to which the arrears were certified, to get them off. I do not know an earlier authority for the word Parish Priest here. Hallam says that parishes began a little before the Conquest. Landowners are said to have kept the right of paying tithes to whom they pleased until about 1,200, and there seems to have been much confusion of practice. Parishes have been altered since, and new ones formed. Street and Mark do not appear in Domesday, and it seems probable that they were not manors or parishes then.

Parishes have, I believe, been formed since, and there are curious exceptions still to be met with as in Pitney and some of the neighbouring parishes where tithe in one parish is paid to the Rector of another, not impossibly through some ancient confusion of boundaries. And in Babcary, where I believe there has been no impropriation, to a layman.

The larger manors would naturally become parishes, or the chief parts of them, and we see in the Nomina Villarum that the vills were not parishes, and had in them or attached to them hamlets, which seems to indicate a connection then ancient. The larger parishes have been made up of many Tythings, and when these were in different Hundreds, as for instance Compton and Dunden, in Whitley, and Littleton in Somerton, the parish is in the different Hundreds now. Some of the anomalies, when a manor or parish had an outlying part, may be accounted for by subdivision, as for instance Lottisham as a part of Ditcheat. Domesday shows that Hornblotton, which lies between and adjoins both, was anciently part of the Glastonbury Lordship of Ditcheat. So also Ham in Pilton, with Shepton Mallet between. In these cases one is tempted to suppose that the parochial arrangements were subsequent to Domesday, though that is not certain.

In what I have to say I wish to keep to facts that I know, and to give such explanations as are necessary, and it is by no means my business to attempt to make things clear which I do not understand,

or to settle their origin. I have much fear of theory unless it is continually tested by facts. I take Tything as I find it a district, and do not dogmatize, with the authorities of Jacobs' Law Dictionary, that it was originally no district at all, but a combination of ten heads of families, and that ten of these combinations made up a Hundred. It is possible, but I do not know it and the same may be said of the similar views about the Mark. Nor can I presume to say for certain whether at each conquest the victors divided the territory among them according to its existing divisions, or made a new survey and parcelled out the land into new districts of their own making. If we may judge from what happened at the Norman Conquest, the former is most likely. I will merely remark that in Somerset the Tythings are usually smaller than ten hides, even in the north-eastern part of the county where hides are less than half their size in the extreme west. And if this be so, the view that in each mark or territory of a community gained by conquest, one- tenth, that is a hide, was given to each of ten men who composed the Tything, will not do here without a good deal of modification. I do not dispute that the hide was originally the homestead and property of one family, and we may fairly imagine if we please that it with its successor the carucate or land which one carruca or team of probably eight oxen could plough corresponded roughly in extent with the Roman centuria.

For our purpose of identification the name is generally enough, and a manor or tything may be taken to be the same as one of our smaller parishes. This is not true of the larger parishes and manors or lordships ; it is not safe to assume in any case that they were exactly co-extensive. It is generally untrue as to the larger districts.

ACCOUNT OF KIRBY'S QUEST.

The first and in some respects the most important document which we give is commonly called Kirby's Quest. It is stated to be Rolls of fees according to inquests made in Somerset and Dorset

xvii c

before the Lord John de Kerkebie, then Treasurer (of Edward I), and others ; it is marked Q. R. Miscel. Books, Vol. 52.

Mr. Scaife, in "Kirby's Quest for Yorkshire," 1867, Surtees Society Publications No. 49, gives an account of what is known of him. He was a Leicestershire man ; was made Dean of Wimborne in 1265, and held various livings, and in 1272 and afterwards was Keeper of the Great Seal in the absence of Bishop Burn el of this diocese, who was at different times Chancellor and Treasurer. He was made Lord Treasurer January 6th, I28|, elected Bishop of Ely July 26th, 1286, ordained priest September 2ist, and consecrated next day. He died of fever, Palm Sunday, 1290. Sir H. Barkly, in the Genealogist, New Series, Vol. IV, No. 13, January, 1887, says that he is supposed to have been Treasurer until his death, and that the Records must have been taken before he was Bishop of Ely, as he is not so named in the Caption. I am indebted to Mr. Batten for this notice.

Our Inquest then must have been taken before the middle of 1286, and unless he was Lord Treasurer before the beginning of 1284 we have only two years and a half in which it can have been taken. It could not have been much earlier because in Bulston Hundred (page 30) He Brewers is said to belong to the heirs of John de Mohun, who, according to Calendarium Genealogicum (p. 279), died abroad on the Feast of St. Barnabas, the 7th of Edward I, which I make to be 1279. And it also appears, at page 5, that Kilton was held by William Martin and his wife (who seems to have been Eleanor, John de Mohun's widow, who held Kilton in dower, and is stated at page 371 of the Calendarium Genealogicum to have been married before the I4th of Edward I, which I make to be 1286). How long she may have been married before this I do not know ; the Crown did not behave kindly to widows and spinsters who held in capite, and second marriages were necessary and speedy.

Anselm de Gurnay who was dead (see Calendarium Genealogicum 367) I4th of Edward I is still alive, and Roger de Mortimer is dead, page 25, who died nth Edward I, according to page 329 of Calendarium Genealogicum.

preface.

I have had a deal of trouble about these dates because I had been misled by a reference to the late Mr. Hunter's History of South Yorkshire, in the Preface to which he states that the Inquest for that county was taken in 1 277, and that would not agree with the facts of our Inquest. I made my investigation before I was put right by Mr. Scaife's book. I was the more likely to be misled by Mr. Hunter, for I knew him many years ago, and felt sure he was an accurate antiquary.

Mr. Scaife describes the book as " a thick folio unpaged, on paper i6J inches long by 6 inches wide ; handwriting about the middle of the 1 6th century." My own note is that it is neatly written in a very disagreeable hand by some one who did not know all the capital letters of the original. I think that it has been bound since it was written. There are four leaves of Cornwall in it, and the beginning is on the third leaf, showing that they are not now in the same order as they were written and intended to be. I have not given much attention to the beginning and end ; they seem to be copies of memoranda of manors of Edward I's time. On the back of leaf 92 is the date of the 2 ist of Edward. The later leaves of this MS. seem to be the same kind of stuff. In the middle is what is called Kirby's Quest, beginning with folio 120 and ending with folio 350. Cornwall is the only one dated, at Lostwythyel Monday after Ascension Day, 34th of Edward I, and it is not stated by whom this inquisition was taken. This is later than those taken by Kirby, and he was dead.*

The date given is curious, and inconsistent with the notion that this work is one Survey. It seems to be a collection of Surveys of different dates, and the names are a clue which may guide some one to ascertain the composition of it.

Mr. Scaife shows that there must have been in 1639 another and an older copy, which was used by John Smith who wrote 250 years ago a History of the Hundred of Berkeley, published lately by the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society.

There are errors of transcription which it is not difficult to correct, and which for the most part have not been corrected, because the notes in the margin show plainly what is meant There is no reason that I can see to think this book an inaccurate copy. There are skins in the Record Office in a very defaced state which have lately been identified as part of a copy of Kirby's Quest, cotemporary with his Inquest, and therefore probably originals. I have compared them so far as they relate to Somerset, and I could decypher them, and I have not found any material difference.

SOMERSET AND DORSET UNDER ONE SHERIFF, AND THE MIXTURE OF KIRBY'S QUEST IN CONSEQUENCE.

Somerset and Dorset are mixed up in Kirby's Quest ; the reason seems to be that there was then but one Sheriff for the two counties. The same thing happens in various returns of names of men of substance, printed in Palgrave's Parliamentary Writs, as well as in other counties, such as Sussex and Surrey, but not in the Nomina Villarum, which is also a return to a writ to the Sheriff.

The facts about Somerset and Dorset seem to be these : W. de Moion was Sheriff of Somerset at the time of Domesday, Aiulf

Camerarius of Dorset (Eyton, Dorset, p. 40). When peace was made at Wallingford in 1153, towards the end of the year, between Stephen and Henry Count of Anjou and Duke of Normandy and Guienne, afterwards Henry II, it was one of the conditions that Sheriffs should be revived, " locis statuentur statutis," and should do justice rightly.

Collinson gives the Sheriffs from 1 1 54, and states that they were for Dorset also ; and the lists in Hutchings seem to agree.

By 8 Elizabeth, c. 16, it was provided that Somerset and Dorset, and various other counties which then had only one Sheriff between them, should in future have two, one for each, after November ist, 1567. The Act was temporary, and as to us was made perpetual by 13 Elizabeth, c. 22.

It may be as well to mention that the part of this return concerning Dorset is given in the new edition of Hutchings.

REASONS WHY THE SURVEY is INCOMPLETE.

It will be seen at once that Kirby's Quest is not complete. The short index at the end of it shows that about fourteen Hundreds are omitted, for the most part in the North and East. Before I had got an exact idea of the dates, and when I had no intention of printing the other matters contained in this book, I extracted from a much more recent Inquest matter to supply the deficiency. I had this by me copied, and it has been printed, otherwise it need not have been inserted.

It is probable that the records of the missing Hundreds were lost before they were all copied out together ; but, besides this, places are omitted, from the nature of the work -itself. It was not, like, Domesday, a survey of all that was important to be known about all places, but an enumeration of fees held of the King directly in capite, and fees held under those who held in capite. This Survey, therefore, omits the first part of each county in Domesday, the Terra Regis, the " ancient demesne." Somerton therefore is omitted. It was not the people who were taxed as in the taxation of Edward III which follows, but the nobility and gentry from whom were due the ancient

•Preface.

feudal services. I do not understand how the ancient demesne had been dealt with. When alienated, so far as I can make out, the rights of the freeholders and villani were not affected by the change. But the new lord would surely have his feudal duties, which would be stated in the Survey. Accordingly South Petherton is mentioned, but not Curry Rivel, nor Hurcott, which is part of Somerton, and had been exchanged with the Newburghs for Poorstock in Dorset, and has been said to have become their Caput Baroniae. Boroughs of course are omitted.

JURIES BY WHICH THESE SURVEYS WERE MADE.

In the latter part of the thirteenth century the use of the jury seems to have been extended. I take this to be the principle of self-government which was brought here by the English Conquest, and not improbably was here before and prevalent through the northern nations.

In the Pleas of the Crown, published lately by the Selden Society, those in the thirteenth century who were accused of crimes were dealt with in the King's Courts, not by proof before a jury, whose duty is to know nothing of the facts or the person tried, except what was told them by the witnesses, but quite the contrary. All depended on his neighbours and what they thought of him ; the Hundred Court or the County Court tried him, and if he was thought well of, he was acquitted ; but if he was " male creditus," he was hanged. There were exceptions of trial by battle, in which it was supposed that the issue was left in God's hands providentially to try the right, and, as I understand it, battle had put aside ordeal* in great measure, and was itself already coming to be put aside, for it is pretty plain that at Somerton at least it had not been used of late for the duellum latronum, when the returns, printed as the Hundred Rolls, were made early in Edward I's time. Mr. Maitland in his Preface to his two books of early legal proceedings, published by the Selden Society, seems to hold that the Courts of the lords

* Kelham states that ordeal was abolished by Order in Council, 3rd of Henry III, 1274 or 1275.

xxii

could not try by jury, and that the King's Courts were substituted for them in consequence. However this may be, the general manage- ment of Manors was in the hands of the tenants, and whenever the Crown had to make inquiry, whether such as Domesday or those whose results are given here, the general course of proceeding seems to have been to send Commissioners or Taxors to call together the proper persons in each district, swear them, and report what they said, and so the result must often have been just what the neigh- bourhood pleased.

The statements in Domesday of the wrongs of great men, especially of the Conqueror's brothers, show a most laudable inde- pendence, love of justice, and performance of duty. In the Hundred Rolls, a few years before Kirby's Quest, the Abbot of Glastonbury's tenants in several Hundreds make representations of encroachments of the Abbot on the Crown, which are identical, and therefore show plan, conspiracy if you please, and indicate that they were inde- pendent enough to speak out what was the general view of their neighbours.

The cropping of the manors was managed by the people, the Praepositus or Reeve, chosen by them, being at once their Chief, and the Lord's deputy. All seems to have gone if we believe what we read in the local customs according to a beautiful patriarchal religious system, all protecting and at the same time watching their neighbours, and doing what was right between the community and their Lord. How far this was kept in order by custom we do not know, how far by fear of the Lord. There is a dreadful case recorded by Mr. Maitland in the Pleas of the Crown just published by the Selden Society, pages 115, n 6. At gaol delivery at Ilchester gth . of Henry III, 1225, No. 179, Nicholas d'Arundel is stated to have been killed and burnt in his own house or court at Samford Arundel. The people were pursuing their Lord to slay him, and he fled to the church and tried to go in, but the Chaplain shut the door, and he did not dare to enter, and they killed him, and put him in his house, and set fire to it. Others were asked where they were when this happened, and said that they slept " in villa," and not in " curia," but

xxiii

preface,

came there before the house was burnt, and they acknowledge that they saw their Lord burnt in his house about the hour of Prime, and did not dare to take the body out without the view of the coroners.

The knights of the Hundred (Milverton) and of Taunton Hundred, and others, and the people of the neighbouring vills, come and say on their oaths they were the jury, and this was the procedure at assizes that they suspect (male credunt) all these men, and the whole population of the villa except four. The men charged are all to be hung, and all the rest taken into custody.

Then again in taxation the Commissioners could not fix any- thing without the knowledge possessed by the neighbours. Certain things to be mentioned make me doubt whether the tax was always as fair as it might be, and whether the jurors were always as observant of their oaths as they ought to be. If not influenced by fear they may have been by favour and affection, though they were distinctly told that this was not to be.

As I understand it the Commissioners had no power to try rights, and questions between different people ; they would have to state what came before them and make return of it. An exception as to taxation will be noticed presently. These duties were, like that of the Grand Jury now, to do that which was conclusive if there was no answer to it, and if there was, to put it in the way to be tried, but by no means to try it themselves.

They would probably have before them whatever had been obtained by previous inquests and was accessible, and if the facts seemed to be different ask for an explanation, and no doubt put leading questions, but go no further.

The published Hundred Rolls the returns to writs sent to the Sheriffs to state all the waste of King's property during the troubled reign of Henry III, and certain other defects and abuses were followed by proceedings on writs of Quo Warranto to try the right to the Franchises claimed, and the encroachments and other wrongs complained of; and among other things the Abbot of Glastonbury was ordered to throw open 200 acres of land enclosed by him in Sedgmoor.

preface.

NOMINA VlLLARUM.

Nomina Villarum, pages 53-78, is taken from Harleian 6281, which is described in the catalogue as "a folio containing the Cities Boroughs, Villages, and Hundreds, their names, and who were the lords of every Manor throughout all the Counties of England from the year of our Lord 1316 to 1559, entitled a Transcript of the book called Nomina Villarum, kept in the office of the Treasurer's Re- membrancer in the Exchequer." The original return is written all through on one side of the paper, the Verso, and on the opposite pages are entries between the above dates, which I suppose are corrections and additions to the original Survey, and give the date of the copy or possibly a few years earlier.

The writ, to which the particulars here given are the return which concerns Somerset, was tested March 5th, 9th Edward II, 1316, at Clips ton, between Northampton and Leicester. This part is near the end of the volume, and begins on page 177. The writing is detestable.

The whole of the Return has been printed by Sir F. Palgrave in Parliamentary Writs, Vol. II, Division III, page 374, with oc- casional inaccuracies of spelling, which were unavoidable and due to the copyist. It is hoped that the identifications of names may render these mistakes of no importance.

A full account is given by Sir F. Palgrave of the MS., and the second of his two indexes contains a complete index of the names.

These very ponderous folios contain matter of great value for the history of Edward I and II, all documents being given at full length with all the names, that throw light on the times when our Parliament became a settled and permanent institution. The two long indexes of names are of the greatest value. They show at a glance all that is made known by the documents of the public life of persons great and small who are noticed in the writs, from the Royal Family down to the manucaptors of the Burgesses of the smaller boroughs. The copy was made from the printed book and collated with the MS.

TAX ROLL OF i EDWARD III, HERE CALLED EXCHEQUER LAY

SUBSIDIES.

What follows is in my opinion by far the most important part of the book. I made long ago an abstract of it which having been put in type will now be made use of as an index to the whole of it.

After we had printed the first part of the book, Mr. Bennett proposed to print this at length, which has been done. The abstract of it I thought valuable as giving better than any other authority the Tythings contained in the county, for these have always I believe been the areas for road purposes and national taxation, and I thought it valuable also as giving a sort of approximation to the opulence and importance of the several districts. The names as now given seem to tell their own tale, and show us all the persons in the county whose goods, estimated as will be explained presently, were of the value of ten shillings or more.

After the election of Edward III in the early part of what would now be called 1327, another Parliament met in the autumn, two months after the death of Edward II, and granted on November 23rd a twentieth of all moveables which were in each man's possession on Michaelmas day. Bishop Stubbs states, Vol. II, page 370, that scutage also was levied in the same year, and the clerg)' granted a tenth.

The Act of Parliament seems to be lost, and the information we have is from the Rolls of Parliament, Vol. II, page 425.

John de Clyvedon and John de Erie were appointed Chief Taxors for this county. They were to summon before them from the vills a sufficient number, out of whom they are to choose four or six or more of each vill to make the taxations, and swear them to tax all men's goods according to their true value, excepting things specially excepted, as will be seen presently. The lists were to be copied, indented, and carefully examined by the Chief Taxers, and amended if wrong.

In the latter part of the Roll there are several places where after the list of the Hundreds is finished there are added some names and

xxvi

numbers (see pages 206, 215, 222, 224, 233, 254, 263, 281, bis. Several of these are at the end of Hundreds, not all ; none in the extreme north or the extreme west). Mr. Lyte was good enough to ascertain for me that the contracted word which puzzled us at first was " subtaxati," and it is pretty plain that the amounts are those of persons who had been forgotten or had evaded the tax, or had been taxed too low and who were put right by the Chief Taxors, according to what follows, " Meismes les chiefs Taxours loiaument et peniblement examinent celes endentures, et si eux entendent q'il cit ascun defaut, eux tauntost 1'adrescent issint que rien soit concele, ne pur doun ne pur regarde de persone miens taxe que reson demande." And they were to go from Hundred to Hundred and from vill to vill and see that the subtaxors painfully taxed all, " et s'il troessent rien concele meintenant 1'adrescent et facent assaver as Tresor et Barons de 1'Excheqer les nouns de ceux qi issent averont trespasses, et la maniere de lour mesprise ;" the taxations of those who tax each vill are to be made by the Chief Taxors and by good men chosen by them to do it equally with the rest ; the Chief Taxors and their clerks to be taxed by the Treasurer and Barons of the Exchequer.

No distinction is here made between the people generally and those in boroughs and places of ancient demesne, who had in previous taxations been taxed more heavily.

" Et fait assaver que en ceste taxacion des biens de la communalte de toux les Countes seront fors priz armure mounture jueux et robes as Chevalers et as gents hommes et a lour femmes et lour vessel d'or d'argent et d'arrein." The reason of this strange and unreasonable exemption seems to be that a scutage* was levied at the same time, which was a payment instead of forty days service in war, to which the Crown tenants were bound for each knight's fee, and that this

* On this occasion " Parliamentary Rolls," II, 425, recites that the Comites, etc., have granted a twentieth of all their moveable goods, " in subsidium defensionis regni nostri contra Scotos inimicos et rebelles nostros, qui idem regnum nostrum hostiliter sunt ingressi, castra nostra et fidelium nostrorum infra idem regnum obsidentes et expugnantes, et homicidia depredationes incendia et alia facinora inhumaniter perpetrantes. "

payment reasonably freed them not merely from the service they ought to perform, but also on that occasion from the establishment they were obliged to keep up so as to be ready for it, because each Knight who went to the wars could not go with one squire like Don Quixote or Hudibras, or alone like Knights in poetry or romances and always in complete armour, but had at least one comfortable nag beside his war-horse, a great big strong thing,, something between hunter and a cart horse, capable of carrying four hundredweight,* that was led, and called destrier because on the right hand of his groom. The Knights therefore, and in a lesser degree the servientes, sergeants or squires, two of whom sufficed instead of one Knight, had each a small company of men and horses, which in the need of battle did good service as light cavalry.

It seems likely enough that this arrangement is as old as the fighting of armed men on horseback. In the Bible and in Homer we have chariots, for which probably small horses would suffice. The Gauls about 200 B.C. as I read in the Revue Arch&ologique brought chariots and horsemen against the Romans, afterward only horsemen, though chariots remained in Gaul certainly up to 100 B.C., and long after in Britain and later still in Ireland. Horsemen in armour must have had much better horses than would do for the chariots, and of a different sort. The curious thing is that each of the horsemen who invaded Italy is stated apparently by Polybius to have had two mounted servants.

It seems, therefore, right enough that those who by law and custom and fear of their neighbours' tongues had to keep up burthen- some establishments should be let off easy, their plate and their wives' jewels being exempt.

That the exemption went beyond Knights and extended to gentlemen may have come from the policy of the times, which was to make little of the distinctions between those who held in capite of

* In the tract lately published, concerning the shire horse, which seems to be, with some difference, the successor of the ancient war-horse, this is stated as the weight of the Knight, his armour, and the armour of his horse.

the Crown, those who held by Knight's service of them, those who held in socage, and villeins who would now I suppose be called copyholders. Writs under authority of Parliament, I suppose, for otherwise they would be of no avail went to summon alj who were possessed anyhow, but probably only freeholders of £20 or £40 a year in land, to act as Knights had of old been required to do, and the exemption would seem to have extended as far as the obligation.

" Et des biens des meseaux la ou il sont governez par soverein meseal ne soient taxez ne prisez. Et s' Is soient meseaux governez par mestre sien soient lour biens taxez comme les autres. Et fait a remembrer que des biens des ditz Gentz des Conteez queux biens ne atteignent a dis soidz ne soit rien demande ne leve."

Meseaux seem to be lepers miselli, poor little miserable creatures ; the treatment of them here gives one a favourable im- pression of these times I understand that they were not taxed at all, unless in Hospitals under a master with property, which seems right enough. I do not understand "soverein meseal," unless it be Chief or Principal leper.

This is an abstract of the directions for the levy of this tax which took a twentieth of moveables. Dowell's History of Taxation gives an account of many previous taxes of the same kind. In them the tax was different; the King's special domains had of course special duties to him, and so had the boroughs, and the tax was higher. In the 25th Edward I there was levied an eighth, and of cities and boroughs and places of ancient demesne a fifth. These latter places did not contribute to the county members' wages, a distinction which must have been dropped when the taxation was made equal. In the taxation of the 25th Edward I, R.P. I, 239, is a picturesque account of ( the things of the townspeople that were exempt from taxation.

" Et en citez burghs e villes marchandes serront forspriz en la taxacion une robe pur le homme et une autre pur la femme e un lit par ambeux, E un anel e un fermail (buckle ?) d'or ou d'argent et un ceint de faye* qu'il usent tutz les jurs, et ausint un hanap d'argent ou de

mazre" Skeat says wooden bowls made out of knots of the mazer, apparently old Dutch for maple " dount il bevient."

I have looked at Mr. Thorold Rogers' very elaborate history of prices, and feel it difficult to understand the taxation values, and am disposed to think that in general the taxation prices of stock must have been far below the sale prices, at which I suppose he puts them, and cannot but think that as between the Crown and the people the tax levied was not really fair. It was substantially the same tax that had frequently been levied, and though the directions are very precise, and we see that certain faults were detected and rectified, it must have been very difficult to make sure that it was equal in all places. Ancient custom has always gone for much in England, and alterations are unpopular. It may be therefore that there was no new valuation, but only the necessary changes from death, marriage, removal to places inherited or purchased, etc.

If the lists contained all the population that had any property at all, we could perhaps judge somewhat ; as it is we do not know who were exempt. There are places where the majority are taxed at 6d. ; in Martock there is but one at 6d., all the rest much more, the Lord £2, which is the highest I find anywhere, and this with what looks like a large population; in Glastonbury no one is put at less than one shilling. It looks as if no Martock or Glastonbury man were poor then, and one cannot but expect that in the other places there were many exempt, and doubt whether the differences came from poverty or unfair assessment. There is a tendency of the larger taxpayers towards round sums ; the richest, Courtenay at Crewkerne and Richard Polruel at Taunton, are put at £2, many others at Taunton and other boroughs at 2os., and many at a mark or half a mark (6s. 8</.) or a quarter (40^.), and the sum can hardly have been paid on an exact account of what they had, with the disagreeable accuracy of the income-tax now ; one is tempted to believe that many were let off easy, and I have had my suspicions that ladies were pinched hard.

Large tracts of country, especially in the west, seem to be full of poor people. With bad hill-land the stock would be weak, profits small, life hard, and therefore household goods, which I suppose made

up the taxable value with the farming stock, would be worthless. In these cases I fear we may consider the tax fair, as also in Weston Zoyland and Middlezoy, where the neighbourhood of Bridgwater and its commerce would make men prosperous, and the taxation high, as it seems to be. Bridgwater was the wealthiest borough in the county. Here and at Wells and Taunton the figures seem to me to imply a less strict taxation than at Bath. These speculations are uncertain ; the value of land now is a very uncertain test of the value of land then, and it does not follow that prosperity would be greatest where land is best. General Wrottesley, who published this same tax-roll for Staffordshire, is plainly right in saying that there was no distinction between villeins and others, and it looks to me as if the lawyers' view that villeins had no pro- perty of their own, but that all they had was their lord's and might be taken from them at his pleasure, was one of those legal fictions which used to be so dear to English lawyers. There are words in the directions for taxing in 25th Edward I (1297), which direct that the villani of Archbishops and other ecclesiastics shall not be exempt These words follow directions that clergymen shall be taxed for their non-ecclesiastical property. R. P. I, 239. Direc- tions about taxation, 25th Edward I ; of" biens q'il averoint en champ ou en mesoun ou ailleurs." After stating that clerks are to be taxed as well as laymen excepting " biens annex a leur Eglises " " et ensement seint taxez en ceste taxacion les biens as Vileins des Ercevesqes Evesqes Religieux et de touts autres Clerks qui qu'il seint," so that taxing these people shows that they were not to escape because of the clerical nature of their lords. No such directions are given in the present case, and I understand it that at the end of the thirteenth century it was necessary to make it clear that the immunity of ecclesiastics went no further than was right, and did not extend to their own property or to their dependents on their ecclesias- tical .property, who were in just the same case as similar dependents on the property of laymen. If this be so it is plain that villani had long been recognised as having property, and being taxable just as others.

The taxation shows where people of importance had estab- lishments— whether they lived there is a different question, and what happened in their absence. It is remarkable that no Beauchamp is taxed at Dunden, which had been the chief holding of Cecilia under Glastonbury, so that it is pretty plain that there was no establishment there or means by which they could cultivate the demesne, except the services of the tenants, if these services were still exacted. There are other cases where the great man is absent, and some one of plebeian appearance is heavily taxed, which make me suspect a transaction for the lease of the manor house and demesne, and the creation of something like our larger tenant-farmers, which grew up long afterwards. At Nunny the firmarius of Alexander de Montford is taxed half a mark. Here the taxation seems low. I find 6d., \2d., l8d., are frequent especially in places where the taxation seems to me low and careless, and I am disposed to query whether these persons were not holders of one-eighth or one-fourth, or some other part of a hyde and taxed as such without careful reference to the value of their stock. The custom of naming the holdings of the tenants after a supposed part of a hyde, as well as calling them nativi domini, that is villeins, continued long in Somerset.

The names of places are most interesting. I have identified a field of mine in Hurcott, Paddoxmead which must have been in the occupation of I hardly like to say belonged to John Padok of Hurcott. In Kingweston there is the name of Chascombe, which is evidently what is now Chacombe, the upper part of the brook in the western part of the parish, the name I conclude coming from the chalk-marl which lies in these valleys, the lime deposited in the course of ages by the hard-water springs out of the lias.

I see also in Lydford Kyngham Mulle now King a mill a name which has been a puzzle to local antiquaries. There are a great many queer names in the Roll of which the following are examples : John Hotale, 275 ; Walter Welifed, 279 ; Hugh le Honylikkere, 197 ; and two others all at Shepton Beauchamp. Thomas le Otemangere, 128; Hugh le Blodleter, 280; John le Northern Cok, 280; John Cache Freynsche, 199 and 265; John Dameaselync,

xxxiii e

are now there, and Richard Tynte at Wraxall, 235, 2s. There are various persons taxed small sums, who may possibly be ecclesiastics. I have not made out any for certain except the archdeacon of Taunton, who is charged 8s., 262, at Langford, near Wellington. I understand from Bishop Drokensford's register that he had just been appointed in consequence of a job. The master of Bridgwater Hospital is charged half a mark, and the Prior of Wells 4s. at Barton, 209, and the Prior of Taunton 2s. at Westowe, 166.

Mr. Bennett's Index to Wells Chapter documents enables us to put together an interesting and characteristic bit of history which seems to throw light on the condition of villani. Page 36, Liber Albus I, fol. 36, we have the manumission of William Cyan of North Curry in 1264, and grant of lands. It may be doubted whether he was of really servile condition before, and whether the act was not one of independence rather than of freedom ; but it cannot be doubted that legally and technically he was the nativus the villein of the Dean and Chapter.

Page 93, fol. 169 (dorso), the Dean and Chapter have sold to Alice, widow of W. Gyan, the custody of all the lands which he held in North Curry, on military tenure, and the marriage of her son Robert in 1321. Here apparently the grandson of W. Gyan, under age, and having lands in North Curry, not as villanus but held as a freeman, is handed over to his mother by their lord whose ward he was. And this privilege which was bought by her might just as well have been bought by some one else. I find no Alice or Robert Gyan in the Exchequer Lay Subsidies of 1327 ; there is Bartholomew Ganne at North Curry and Nicholas and Christina Gyan at Yarling- ton. At pages 104 and. 105 Robert Gyan, a clerk, possibly not the same man, is assaulted in 1337 in the presence of several members of the Chapter, and apparently at North Curry, and the assailants appear to have been excommunicated instanter by one of the Canons. At page 1 80 Robert Gyan, a layman, in the same year 1337 (fols. 212 and 213, Liber Albus the 3rd) appears before the Chapter, and acknowledges having cut down their trees at North Curry and beaten their servants. He is excommunicated and made to pay

xxxiv

8 marks for poaching and 10 pounds for the timber, and as he submits to the excommunication he is only punished by being whipped three times round North Curry Church and three times round Wells Cathedral, nine times in each case if I understand it rightly, nudus prater femoralia, and each day to carry a lighted wax candle of a pound weight, which he is to hold in the nave from the time of the procession before Mass to the Offertory, when he is to offer the candle, and he and the dignitary who celebrates are to state publicly in English the cause of this penance and of the oblation.

When there was such confusion as this of matters religious and secular, and men were beginning to spell out the difference between them, one cannot wonder that the Pope was in permanent exile and that Protestantism was making its first beginning.

COUNTY ASSESSMENT PREVIOUS TO 1818.

What is here given is the County Assessment as it was before the change made about seventy years back. It is not a fair and reasonable assessment, I think that is plain, and an alteration was necessary, but for the purpose of this book it is very valuable, for it gives the small parts of different parishes which are in different Hundreds, some of which are very remarkable, as for instance the bits of Williton and Freemanors in High Ham, to be accounted for probably by this that some one of the Freemanors incorporated in that Hundred had an outlying bit in High Ham or close by it, a thing by no means uncommon.

It is very curious that Collinson did not take more pains about the Hundreds. He was evidently helped by persons who knew the antiquities of the county well, and he was diligent and painstaking himself and plainly had his eyes about him ; but it is passing strange that figures which must have been known to most magistrates, for they all must have had the book from which this list is printed, the Sessions Court Rolls of 1768, and to the Parish officers who had to pay the County Cess, and to the Hundred constables who collected it, should not have been known to Collinson, and that he should

XXXV

never even have heard of what would be a natural foundation for his work.

The County Rate was ordered to be made by 12 George II, c. 29, in 1739, instead of various rates ordered by previous Acts. The Acts are recited, and, as is stated in the Preamble, it was impossible to collect the rates justly. These rates are to be assessed upon every town, parish, or place in such proportions as any of the rates heretofore made have been usually assessed. I do not see any power to value, nor indeed to alter the proportions. I conclude that the different charges must have been made at the same rate, and it seems to follow that the valuation on which the rate was levied was really much older than 1739.

The first of the Acts mentioned in the Preamble is 22nd Henry VIII, c. 5, concerning Bridges, which directs that the rate is to be made on the town, parish, or place in proportions "as they have usually been assessed for the repair of Bridges," so that this carries us back into .the fifteenth century at least. The nth William III, concerning gaols, directs the rate to be made on Hundreds, and not directly on Parishes, by an equal proportion. The Acts of Elizabeth concerning gaol-money are made on Parishes, and seem to be those reflected on in the Preamble of the Act of George II, and do not help us.

It looks therefore as if the rate must be very ancient indeed. I do not see any power to alter it, but one does not know what may have been done.

CENSUS OF 1841.

The last list of Hundreds we have is a portion of the census of 1841 ; the first was in 1801, which seems, as was likely, to have been less carefully taken. In this a good deal of pains seems to have been taken in planning and executing the work, and as at that time the Hundreds were still well known and were the divisions of County taxation, they were unavoidably the divisions for the Census, and give light on the parishes and other districts contained in them, and on the divisions of parishes and hamlets. The formation of the

xxxvi

preface.

Poor Law Unions and the consequent changes of detail of county finance have made the Hundreds of no importance, and the Registers of Electors have contributed to the same result ; before they were made the land-tax assessment was practically the Register, which went by Hundreds and Tythings.

CONCLUSION.

I am able to give in this Preface but a small part of my materials. I had originally intended that what I had collected should be of use to elucidate Domesday. This has been done by Mr. Eyton with power and knowledge to which I make no pretensions ; what remains is only, as I have said before, to correct his work in detail.

With a view to this I put the materials of these lists together under each Hundred in a series of tables, so as to place all the information I had of each Hundred before the reader in one view compactly. And I was told by Mr. Bennett that anything in a tabular form was especially expensive, and that it could not be printed. I spent much time on these lists last autumn which I now find might have been better employed.

I had also made long ago various lists of places with their holders in Kirby, the holders in capite and the tenants in each Manor, the Baronies mentioned in Kirby, and I have notes of various things that had struck me. All these things were incomplete and only required time and patience to complete them ; but time is gone, and I am obliged to cut away all that is incomplete and finish speedily.

I had besides made use of the Indexes of Sir F. Palgrave in his Parliamentary Writs with a view to give what information I could* of the owners of property in Somerset who were established else- where, and many of them of much more importance than one would imagine from what we know of them in Somerset.

My extracts from the Indexes are in a less complete state than even the rest of the work. I had at one time hoped I might have had another year to complete it. As it is, I have no alternative but

xxxvii

to omit all this incomplete work, which would have served for a series of explanatory indices for the whole, and to content myself with the index the Revs. Gilbert Smith and F. W. Weaver have been good enough to undertake ; for these they, and for the Exchequer Lay Subsidies Mr. Bennett, are responsible.

I am desirous, if I have strength, to put in shape by degrees what is omitted of the matter I had more or less prepared, with a view to its being printed hereafter if that is possible.
