Excerpt from The Chartulary of St. John of Pontefract, Vol. 2OF the two portions into which for convenience sake I have considered it better to divide the Chartulary, the second is of not much less importance than the first. For, although dealing with the smaller and more trivial affairs of the monastery, rather than with the seigniorial, regal and ecclesiastical charters and its more general privileges, it affords much useful information and illustration even to the general student.The Seventh Fasciculus, which is the first of this volume, opens with a charter (no. 234) concerning land at Wick (now Keswick, near Leeds).About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
