It corresponded to the chapelry, later the parish, of St Margaret, and was subject to the lordship of Durham Priory,  in whose archives these documents have survived, dating chiefly from the 1390s and to the years 1498-1531. The records offer a sharp focus on the local administration of justice, as well as containing graphic detail concerning other aspects of urban society in the late middle ages. They are printed here with a detailed rental of the borough from the year 1500, which allows individual properties to be located and mapped, while the apparatus is designed both to illuminate the record and to serve as an introduction to historians needing to consult other urban records.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere can be no doubt that this is a definitive work, produced to the highest possible standards and providing a source of exceptional intrinsic interest. * NORTHERN HISTORY *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction Court Rolls, 1312-1400 Court Books, 1498-1531 Fragment of a paper court roll Additional Documents The sacrist's rental of 1500 Glossary of English words Index","brand":"Surtees Society","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49406265000279,"sku":"9780854440672","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/records-of-the-borough-of-crossgate-durham-13121531-9780854440672","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
