HIS volume completes, according to the Editor's pro- posals, the third, and, he is well aware, a very un- popular part of his work. It also concludes much of his labour, inasmuch as it brings a large portion of his material and authority into a digested and metho- dised form ; but, like its predecessor, it is wanting in all that is interesting or attractive to the eye or the mind of the general reader. By the genuine antiquary, the genealogist, and the amateur in county history, he hopes it will be found a productive mine of useful information; and he is per- suaded that, as long as the people of Northumberland are permitted to live under the influence of the jurisprudence and customs of their forefathers, it cannot fail to be of frequent use to the lawyers and holders of property in that county.

Anxiety for the preservation, and a deep sense of the value, of public and family muniments, are feelings that spring out of loyalty and attention to self- preservation, and are characteristic of the high-minded and patriotic people who live upon estates which have descended to them from remote ancestry — have been the reward of valour, or wisdom, or industry, and which especially have been kept unspotted by dishonourable and enthralling incumbrances. How, indeed, can a generous and enlightened progeny look with indifference upon those charters of their rights, liberty, and property, which their ancestors had sealed with their blood, or emblazoned with the glory of great or useful deeds? A conqueror, who wishes to begin a new era in a country, by dividing its property among his ad- herents, naturally enough desires to destroy all evidences of the achievements and possessions of the people he has vanquished. A remarkable event of this kind occurred in China about 2000 years since, when Chi-Hoang-ti, for the purpose of obliterating every trace of the feudal government that preceded his dynasty, destroyed all its books and writings, excepting such as related to law and medicine, and put to death great numbers of learned men, lest they should relate from memory any portion of the genuine memoirs or established superstitions of their country. Something similar to this may always be expected to happen where neglect or mismanagement permits popular discontent to ripen into hatred, and to bring on a revolution : in the heat of revenge the actors in a new order of things, naturally seek security for themselves, their power, and property, not merely from those whom they had removed from their offices and estates, but from their de- scendants, by the destruction of such records and papers as might assist the con- quered party in the recovery of their rights, in the event of a successful re-action. Prynne asserts, that in several periods of the unsettled state of our country, " the prevailing king's parties embezzled and suppressed such parliamentary records and proceedings as made most against their interest, power, and prerogative;" and Ayloffe to this quotation adds, that " it cannot be doubted that in those times the like fate befel many other of our national muniments;" that " damps, mildew, and vermin have, from time to time, deprived us of many antient and valuable records." Dugdale, in his Baronage,* cites the Scottish Rolls for the 34th year of Edward the First, which record, as well as similar documents for the preceding and suc- ceeding year of the same reign, were not existing when that copious source of historical evidence was printed by government in 1814. It is the multiplication of copies of the authentic histories of countries and places, and- especially of useful

records and papers, which tends to avert these effects of wars, revolutions, and neglect. It is this process that keeps the most antient writings in perennial youth. It preserves the remembrance of such arts and measures as have been found to be useful and good, suitable to the climate in which they have rooted and thriven, and to the genius and habits of the people by whom they have been adopted. It keeps truth before men's eyes, and consequently gives a relish for histories that are grounded on facts, in preference to works of imagination, fables, and romance. It prevents the spread of visionary theories, by encouraging us to protect and de- fend the laws under which our predecessors have long lived happily, rather than venture upon such rash and vain experiments in legislation, as usually end in democratical risings and political ruin. " Records," indeed, " are the treasuries and conservators of our laws, and the standard to which we must resort for the resolving and ascertaining all constitutional points ; they are the testimonies of our legislation and of all juridical and judicial proceedings, and the perpetual evidence of every man's rights, privileges, and liberties." " The same fertile mine likewise offers us a rich vein of materials for improving and illustrating our English topo- graphy," " and for rendering our local history and antiquities of essential and public use."* This then is the object aimed at in the volume now presented to the subscribers to this work, on reference to the first and second parts of which the perpetual use of the third will be observable in almost every page. Each article, excepting the first, is prefaced with a short account of it, which precludes the ne- cessity of saying more respecting them in this place, than that the first three articles are now printed for the first time, and that the remaining part consists of selections respecting Northumberland, from the Calendars and Abbreviations of the Public Records, printed under the sanction of Parliament. Every care has been taken to make the Indexes accurate and full; and what is here accom- plished may serve to show how much might be done to make the stream of County History flow in a full and clear current, if the provincial Antiquarian Societies of the kingdom would insert similar articles, accompanied with good indexes, into their transactions, respecting the counties which lie within the sphere of their researches.

From the very large and inconvenient size of most of modern deeds, and the great difficulty of keeping them in order and from injury, I cannot here omit this suggestion — that some statutory enactment, making every sort of con- veyance of property illegal, unless it were plainly written upon parchment or

paper of the foolscap or some other specified size, and the several sheets of each deed were inlaid, might be of considerable individual and national advantage. Title-deeds would then be easily accessible to the parties they belonged to; and if every deed was paged, and the contents of each clause indexed at its end, it would be rendered still more intelligible and useful. On this plan, deeds would be all of one size ; and mignt be protected with covers, according to their owner's fancy : series of them belonging to the same estate might be bound into volumes ; and copies of the whole much more conveniently made for the purpose of com- mon reference.

The Editor's special and most grateful thanks are due for contributions to this collection, to His Grace the Duke of Northumberland, Sir J. E. Swinburne, Bart., The Rev. James Raine, A. M., Rector of Meldon, and to Miss Emma Trevelyan, of Wallington ; as well as to Edward Swinburne, Esq., for drawings of the vignettes with which the volume is embellished, and the plate of the remains of the Manor House at Mitford ; and to the Rev. L. V. Vernon, formerly Rector of Rothbury, in Northumberland, and now of Stokesley, in Yorkshire, for several interesting papers respecting the Rectory of Rothbury, acknowledged at p. 139, and for 300 copies of the lithographed view of " Witton Tower, from an original drawing by the Hon. Mrs Leveson Vernon," delivered with this volume.

*#* This article is almost wholly copied from the manuscripts of Dr Chris- topher Hunter, which are preserved in the archives of the Dean and Chapter of Durham, and have lately been arranged alphabetically under the deaneries to which they severally belong, by the Reverend James Raine, Librarian in the Cathedral Library there. Some of the documents, it will be seen, are copies from originals in the treasury of the church of Durham ; and others transcripts of copies, either from the originals or from the cartularies there.

That Castle for lack of contynuall reparation is in much decaye for the first utter walles of the Inner ward toward Scotland endlong the banke of the River of Twead be much corrupted by occasion that the said wall hath not been covered with leade but that the rayne water fallinge thereon hath alwais discended into the wall and by contynuance hath soe putryfied the lyme and stone of the same that theire hath sundry peicea fallen forth of the same And more is like so to doe and as ap- peareth a smalle battery on that north syde from Jeynham in Scotland opposite thereunto would bringe downe that longe wall endlong the halle and kitchen from the new wall at the staire or turnepike uppon the North East corner of the aaid Inner Warde unto the end of the oven in the kitchen which is a full quarter of the saide inner warde And leaveth all the reste thereof open to the sight of Scotland The said Inner warde of that Castle is in no place flancked save by a little bulwarke or casamata made in it towarde the utter warde which flankn eth betweene the gates and the doungeon and may with hagbuttes beat a good parte within the utter warde Albeit the poynt of that litle bulwarke is (by no meanes) warded or flanked The Dungeon of that Castle hathe beene a verye large and strongly baylded tower of great hight whereof almoste the one halfe hathe beene decayed and fallen longe sithence It is flanked in no place save that the said litle bul- warke flanketh a great part thereof towarde the utter warde the gates of the inner ward lye very playne and open and might well be more covertly casten and better for defence

The utter warde is invyroned towarde the east South and west with a very old thynne and weake wall save that theire be sundrye litle towers made thereon to flank the foote of the said wall which were not ingenyously devised for the poynts or grounde of none of the said towers be flanked but that a man may come to the poynts thereof without danger of any shote other then such as is shotte forther right And the said walles of the utter warde be both olde and much decay- ed There is a place also towardes the north side of the said utter warde at the west ende of the Chappell where the wall is soe lowe that a man maye forth of Scottland uppon the banck head towarde the Lady Church view and see any man that stirreth within the said utter warde specially in passage from the upper gates into the inner warde which would be a meanded with no great charge Fynally that Castle standing in soe meete a place for the defence of the frontier and coun- trey there about were convenient (as me thinke) to be in the kinges maiesties handes and soe would it be better repayred and maynteyned that it is or hath bene by Bushopps of Durham who hath passed the matter lightly over every man for his tyme

And if it were the kings maiesties castle first the wall of the utter warde being ameanded (as it might be with no great charge) And shedds or toofalls made towardes the inner side of the same from the South east corner thereof to the North west part when the gate hath growe of old tyme towards the towne the same would be a strong bar. mekyn or fortilage for the saugarde of a great nomber of cattle of the country in tyme of warre when enemyes did invade And therein also might be then savelier lodged and have stabling for their horses one

The iron gates of the utter warde be hong very unwisly uppon the utter side for the enemyes may come and pike the crakes of them forth of the wall where they might hange better in purpose ynnermore in that gatehowse in a payre of wood gates without them to cover them

Also the olde gates towardes the towne at the northwest corner of the said utter warde were best as me think to be mowred upp and a privy postorn covertly conveyed that waye which might serve either for assayly to yssue forth of the Castle towarde the Rescues of the Towne from a Suddayne orells if the inhabitants of the Towne being overlayd with enemies retyred to the Castle They might moste readily that waye be received in And for the moste sure fortifying of the inner warde myne opynion were to have that side towards Scotland Northward even from the east ende of the Chappell to the newe wall at the turne pike uppon the Northeast corner of the Dungeon to be massively rampiered with earth both the Hall and Kitchen and other houses in that part And the Hall to be made in that part of the Dungeon that is decayed which might be with no great charges (in respect of a kings worke) made to or three howses heigh above the vaut that now standeth And the nether most of those howses to be the hall buttery or pantry And yet the East end thereof to be fower and twenteth foote rampiered within the utter wall and the other two hights above that would serve for Lodgings for the Captayne and his housholde And the Dungeon (being nowe over highe) might be taken downe one storye leaving only the turne pike thereof for a watch howse And the stone taken off the

Also the gates at the entrye of the Inner ward would be (as I think) where the gates now enter towards the west rampiered for a cover gate And the waye more covertly conveyed to passe by the rampier at the east ende of the Chappell and soe to come forward the North and the wall of the Gatehowse unto the entry that now is and so east warde in at the Iron gates that be nowe

WARKE. — The next Castle uppon the frontier is the Kings Maiesties Castle of Warke the utterward whereof is much decayed specially to wards the water of Theawde And had much neede there to be repayred That Castle standeth also to very good purpose for the defence of the frontier of the countrey And if waye could be founde to increase the plenishinge and inhabitacion of that towne it would much strength and infbre* that frontier against the enemy And for that purpose myn opynion is That if the towne were made larger as from the east end there-

of extending without the ringe of the Castle asfarre westward from the Castle as that part of the towne that is by east the Castle And the same fortified with a ditch and an earth wall as Guynes is I thinke the most parte of the ditch would be full of water And so it might be with no great charge made tenable for the souddayne except the enemye came with power and ordynaunce And then the Castle myght be the keep- ers safeguard for the men and goodes of the towne And this fortifying of the towne would be also much savety to the Castle specyally from mynorye where unto the said Inner ward of the Castle is much subject

And this towne of Warke (so inlarged) would not only conteyne in tyme of warre the inhabytants of sundry villages thereabouts for their better savety but also a number of Artificers and Merchaunts which I thinke might be gathered thither and there mayntayned if a Lybertye were graunted unto that towne of a market every weeke and two fayres in the yeare where the commerce and enterchaunge of all wares and marchandize passing betweene the realmes of England and Scotland uppon horsback within the east and middle marches of the same should be had and made And the tolle and custome their paid for the same to goe to the fortifications of the said towne

There was lefte in the said Castle of Warke much fayre tymber that was of a store howse brought from *coxburghe which would be savely kept And also a copper panne and sundry other brewe vessels brought also from *Coxbroughe which I thinke will suffise to make a large brew- house and a backehowse there And it were much necessarye to have

courses of the Scottes in tyme of warre Therefore yt is thoughte ex- Such as may to be pedient that suche of them as lye in moste coverte places for passage of Scottes shalbe stopped & suche as shall lye open be suerly watch- the rest watched ed so that the Scottes enteringe over them may be dyscov'ed and knowen

such bowses therre as well to serve the Castle if neede should requier as to help in victualling an army yf any should enter Scotland by that waye whereby much carriage might be saved that must needes be oc- cupied if all the victuall should be conveyed from Berwick or the Holy Hand

This Castle of Warke is not flanked but round in Compasse Albeit I think theire might be wayes devised in fortifying the towne as before to flancke both the towne and the Castle

There is two myles or more west from Warke a towne that lyeth waste in every warre myndrom which standeth uppon the water of bowbent in a very fertil soyle And might be fortifyed for the suddayne without it were assayled with a power or great ordynaunce with noe great charge If there were made a stronge tower with stables beneath and lodgings above after the fashion of Roclyf my Lord Dacres howse uppon the west borders able to contayne many men and horses and in circuite aboute it a large barmekyn or fortylage for savegarde of cattle which might easily in that place have water in a ditch rounde about And that towne soe fortified might be a savegarde for men horse and cattell of sundrye villages in that quarter which now for lacke of suche fortresses lye wast in every warre or troublesome tyme

Also that towne of mydrom well plenished lyeth soe in the high streete and waye whereby the Scotts passe and repasse into those marches of England that it would not only be a greate reliefe or de- fense to that frontier but also having two litle piles or watch howses

the whyte swyre towarde the Easte & the hangyngestone towarde the west And towarde the northe yt devydethe England and Scotland by the heighte of yt as the water descendeth & falleth And the Eng- lishe p'te thereof excedeth not three myles of breadeth And the most p'te thereof and esp'ially towarde the heighte ys a wete flowe mgsse so depe that scarcely eyther horse or cattail may goo thereupon ex- cepte yt be by the syde of certayne lytle broukes & waters that springeth forthe of the said mountaine by reason whereof the said

the one uppon teversheughe betweene it and Warke and the other uppon heddon lawe betweene it and Chevyot there could no Scotts men passe into England nor from England but one of those howses might discover them And soe by burninge of beacons or shote of a goune to give knowledge and warninge from one to another whereby they might assemble to resiste repulse or anoye the enemye as occasion might serve them The uttermost frontyer they fortefyed uppon the east marches would cawse that sundrye villages wasted by wares and lying longe tyme uninhabited to be repeopled and plenished which were a great strength to those borders

The moste parte of the fortresses towers and piles uppon the utter side or frontier of those east marches have bene in tymes past rased and casten downe by the Scottes and yet be not repayred which is much pittye to se as the Castle of Heton belonging to Mr Gray the tower of Twisell belonging to the heires of heron of Foorde The tower of howtell belonging to one burrell The tower of Shoreswood belonginge to the Colledge of Durham the tower of Barmor belonging to Edwarde Muschaunce The tower of duddo belonging to Robert Clavering And the moste parte of all the other Castells fortresses towers and piles within the said east marches belonginge as well to the Kinges Maiestye as to any other person be suffered to decay which would be a meanded other- wise it wilbe great daunger if the Scottes should be hereafter able and of power to invayd those marches and remayne any time within the same without repulse

Out of the Southest p'te of the said mountayne springeth & de- scendeth a lytle ryv' called Colledge And oute from the Southe syde thereof an other lytle brooke or water called Caldegate and upon the sydes aswell of the said two lytle riv's as nere to other lytle brookes sprynginge out of the said mountayne & dyscendinge into the said twoo lytle ryv's there growyth many allers & other ramell wood whiche servethe muche for the buyldinge of suche small houses as be used & Inhabyted by husbandmen in those p'ties

The holy Hand is also a place muche necessarye to be defended and preserved for theire is a harboroughe sufficient for a great navye of shippes to rest safely in And very aptlye for the warrs towards Scott- land And in that Hand be both store howses brewe howses and backe howses to conserve and prepayre victualls sufficient to furnishe the saide navye withall which storehowses n\ust either contynuallye be kept in reparations or ells they will shortely decaye And the greatest decaye that appeareth in them is the Southeast wall of the brewhowse which standeth uppon proppes like to fall and would with expedicion be made upp with stone A piece also of the roofe of the great Store- howse that was the churche of the priory was the last yeare in a great winde broken downe by a parcell of the imbattlement of the same howse that feel thereuppon which woulde be repayred with expedicion Or ells the weat discending thereby will cawse great decaye in the floores of the said storehowse

I think if all the storehowses and howses of office belonging to the kinge with in that Hand were brought and sett with in the wall of the great storehowse that was the priorye Soe that the water or conduct might be brought thither conveniently to them I thincke they should theire be made more apt for service and more defensible against the suddeyn of enemys that myght Arrive theire and that place some what more fortified woulde be great releife to the Inhabitants of the towne within that Hand yf enemyes did suddaynly arrive to annoye them

The foote of Beblowe within that Hand lyeth very well for the defence

The Scottes aswell by nighte tyme secretely as upon the daie tyme w01 a more force do come into the said forrest of Chevyott dyv'se tymes & steale & carrye awaie inuche of the said wood whiche ys to them a greatt proffyte for the maynte'unce of their houses & buyld- inge & small redresse thereof can be hadd by the lawes & customes bf the m'chea wherefore we thinke yt expedient that some greatter cor- Some greater correc. recc'on & punyshernente were devysed for suche as steale and take awaie the said wood in forme aforesaid And also upon suche Eng- lyshemen as geve or sell any of the said wood unto the Scottes And

of the haven theire And if there were about the lawe part thereof made a ring with Bullwarkes to flancke the same the ditch thereabout might be easily watered towarde the land And then I thinke the said forte were very stronge and stood to great purpose both for the defence of the forte and annoyance of the enemies if they did arrive in any other parte of that Hand

There is great lack of millage within that Hand beinge no mylnes theire savinge horse mylnes And it is thought there might be a mylne devysed theire at one place which should grynd at the reflux or ebbe of the sea at the least three howers every tyde which would be a great commoditie if it coulde be brought to pass

The castle of Bambroughe also woulde be viewed and keept in repa- rations to be defencable for the scyte thereof is wonderfull stronge and the keepinge of the same castle is the best office that the kings maiesty giveth within the east marches of England

The Castle of Dunstanbrough is in wonderfull great decaye and the utter wall thereof might be repayred with no great charge and also the Gatehowse and a house for a constable And then surely it would be a great refuge to the inhabitants of those partes Yff enemies came to annoye them either arriving by sea or coming by lande out of Scoteland

the Middle Marchies of England and Scotland have bene used to be at Heppethegate head or Kymelspethe And that Liddesdall is but a par- cell of the middle marchies of Scotland The Keeper and inhabitants thereof should come to ye comon dayes of trewce with the Warden of Scotland as well as the Keeper of Tyndall and Riddesdall dooe And there answere all complaints for the discharge of the Warden accord-

A BOUNDER or VIEWE of the EST M'CHES of ENGLAND foranenst SCOTLAND

Fyrst the boundes of Barwyke bounded by the bounde roode well knowen w'hout dyfference

And from thende of the boundes of Barwyke up the water of Twede unto the mouth of Rydenburne And upp Rydenburne to hawden stanke and so as the feldes of Carrham boundes upon Scotland Albeyt the certayne bounders thereof ys in varyaunce

In so muche that a certayne flatte called the Mydrynge wthin the boundes of Carrh'm wch tholde tenautes of Warke & Carrh'm do testyfye that they & their neighbours of Carr- h'm dyd contynually plowe & sowe the same untyll Flodden felde And from that tyme yt rested unplowed untill about v or vj yeres nowe laste past At which tyme the ten'utes of Carran & other Englyshe men sew the same flatte And both the wardens of thest & mydle m'ches of Scotland came wth a great nomber of Scottes and destroyed the said corne when yt was redye to be shorne And ev' sy thence yt lyeth unoccupied and clamed by the Scottes And that flatte conteynes about Ix. acres And from Carrham felde syde the bounder goeth by a drye dyke called the m'che dyke endlonge all the feldes of Warke unto Pressen felde Albeyt the Scottes clame wthin the said marche dyke unto a place in warkes felde called warkes whyte lawe

And the said drye dyke called the m'che dyke ys the very true bounder unto a place called Cawdron bume in Pressen felde & from yt to the height of Horserigge Albeyt the Scottes occupie wthin the said m'che dyke unto a place called the west forde of Pressen which grounde ys nere half a myle of lengthe & a myle nere in bredth And hath plowed & sowen w^in the same two p'celles of the Indermost p'te towarde England of Intent they may intytle themselfes the better to that that is wthout and this plowinge was w^in this two or iij yeres & nev' before

And from the heighte of horserigge endelong the said marche dyke betwene the felde of Myndrome & Scotland unto a place called Chapman deane beinge the bounder betwene Myndrome & Shotton wthin wch bounder the Scottes have plowed & sowen a lytle flatte of lande & occupye much pasture wth their cattail wthin the said towneshippe of Myndrome

And from the said Shotton deane endlonge the said m'che dyke betwene the feldes of Shotton & Scotland by the west ende of Schotton lawe in the water of Bowebent Abbey the said m'che dyke hath bene by the Scottes of late tyme in dyv'se places plowed downe

[ 219 ]

inge to the lawes of the triarchies and not to have a privye meetinge for Lyddesdale alone whereby for the cawses aforesaide smalle justice will succeed to the trewe men

The devysion from Cassope betweene the middle Marchies of Eng- land and the West Marchies of the same proceedeth to the poltrosse And soe further as the devision is betweene the Sheires of Cumberland

to putt the very m'che oute of knowledge And thwartynge ov* the water of Bowbent up Elterburne to the ov' stawe forde wthin wch bounder the Scottes occupie allmost all the towneshippe of Shotton and have plowed & sowen dyv'se flattes endlonge all the m'ches of the said towne

And from the said ov'stawe forde the bounder goeth up Elterburne betwene the towne- shipe of Elter & Scotland to the highte of the whyteswyre wthin wch bounder the Scottes plowe & sowe all endlonge the said Elterburne by the space of two myles lengthe as the grounde will bere any corne and the most of this hath bene plowed wthin this two yeres

And from the whyteswyre the bounder & m'che goeth up sterrygge unto Stanemore- sheyle in Chevyott & so up the edge as the water falleth to arobeswyre And so to the hangingestone wch is the bounder betwene the Est & myde m'ches of England

Remember that nere the fote of Elterburne the Scottes had dem'ed the water of intente to make yt to alter the course & ryv'e towarde England so that thereby they mighte wynne the haughes endlonge that burne syde And Sr. Rob't Ellerker had broken the damynge & sett the water againe in his righte course

Also hygher upon the said burne appered twoo com'only used waies or rakes of great bredth where the cattalles of Scotland had bene accustomed to have been dryven into the grounde of England to their contynuall pastures

Also the townes of Scotland boundinge upon England have eared plowed & sowen muche of all the grounde that was wounte to be their pastures And pasture all their shepe & cattail in great nombres w^in the realme of England

that they escaped wthout a greatter losse of their goodes & cattalles by spoyle or thefte of the Scottes or Ryddesdale men then would have paide for the pasture of their cattail in a much better grounde nor that was ov' & besyde the daunger of their lives whereyn they were contynually for the defence of their said cattalles so longe as they abode there

And the most convenyent house for the said kep* of Tyndale & the said garryson wth hym (as we thynke) were Chypchase & Sy-

The countrey of RIDDESDALL hath moe inhabitants within it then Tyndall but not soe many hable and active men The inhabitants of Riddesdall be muche richer and live more uppon the labore of the grounde then Tyndall doth But surely the great occasion of the dis- order of both those countreys is That there be moe inhabitants within either of them then the saide countreys maye susteyne to live truely for uppon a fyrme of a noble rent There doe inhabite in some place three or fower howsholde Soe that they cannot uppon so smalle fermes with- out any other Craftes live truely but either be stealing in England or Scotland And the people of that countrey (specially the men) be lothe to departe forth of the same but had rather live poorely theire as theaves then more wealthyly in another countrey And if any of them of Tyndall or Riddesdalle come forth of theire countreys and inhabite in any other place in theis north parties to hym will resorte other light parsons of those countreys and committe offences thereabouts For the which he then is suspected as a receptor and an out putter (as the countrey calleth them) uppon which occasion other true Countreys be very lothe to have any of Tyndall or Riddesdall inhabitinge amonge them And I thinke it were more requisite that the superfluous peo- ple of those two countreys were sent Southwarde to inhabite in places farre distant from their owne native countreys for avoyding of suche resorte of theire Kynsfolk and countreymen

The Kinges M a*>es castle of Harbottle is assigned to the keeper of Riddesdalle and standeth very conveniently for the same It was of late in extreme ruine and is partley reparaled Albeit theire is not in the saide castle either hall kitchen or Brewhowse which were much necessarye for the keeper theire And the prisons also be nott suffitiently stronge nor large inoughe to conteyne soe many prisoners as at some tymes shall be requisite to be had in warde theire

The said countrey of Riddesdalle standeth much by surnames as Tyndall doth of which surnames the Haulls be the greatest and moste-

[ 244 ]

of reputation in that countrey and next them the Reades Petts Hed- lies Spoores Dawgs Fletchers &c

The Riddesdall men be even of like nature and qualities as the Tyn- dall men save that they be not soe trusty of their wordes and promise and have often tymes attempted to disobey and refuse theire keepers by force And can in no wise be kept in order butt by correction and dread

There have bene often tymes muche thefte betweene theis two coun- treys of Tyndall and Riddesdalle which hath bene ameanded and re- dressed betweene the keepers of the countrey and some of the wisest of the inhabitants of either countrey after the mannor of redresse be- tweene England and Scotland For they will not seeke for their lawfull remedy es according to justice but rather to revenge one wronge by another For the staying whereof such orders of redresse have bene permitted and tollorate betweene those countreys to avoyd the greater inconvenients

The whole countrey of Northumberland is much given to riotte specially the younge gentlemen or headsmen and dyvers of them alsoe to theftes and other greater offences which as they may be knowen would be justly corrected for the example of other for the whole coun- trey is much given to wildnes Albeyt the complements for the moste parte will alleadge more in their complaynt then truth And seeke much to have credence without hearinge the answere of the other par- tye which is very daungerous in the administration of Justice amongst them for either partye doe much covet to be heard alone And when his adversary is absent will give many evill informations of hym often- tymes more than truth And be very loth to come face to face with theire adversaries And in absents of the partye adverse they be full of evill reportes wch they covet to rowne or speak under silents rather then openly butt it is pillous to give credence thereunto untill the other partye is harde to answere for himself

The kinges Maties castles and fortresses within the Middle Marchies are Alnewick Warkworth Tynmouthe The Castle of Newcastell upon

[ 245 ] •

Tyne Prudo Castle Langley Castle Harbottell Castell and the two towers of Exham be much in decaye because theire is no yearely reparacons allowed to be done uppon them and when by contynuances of tyme they fall into decaye then the charge of them is so great to be reparaled that it is thought by the officers importable And so they be suffered to decay to the ruine and destruction of the countrey which were much necessary to be reformed

Thofficers as well of all the kinges Lordshipps as other be contynu- ally at the wardens or his deputies commaundement to assemble either for taking of orders for the good rule of the countrey or ells for resis- taunce of the enemyes or theaves And soe ought to be the whole inha- bitants of both the said marches without taking of any wages for resistaunce of invasions of the enemye though their assempbly endure eight dayes at one tyme And also the said marchies be bound to mayntayne watches as well by day as night for the defence of the countrey at the places accustomed uppon orders therefore taken by the Lord Warden or his deputies uppon paynes as have beene accustomed And likewise to maynteyne the beacons both for anempst Scotland and uppon the Sea costes at places accustomed

And the whole countrey of Northumberland is bounden to ryde with the Lord Warden or his deputye two or three tymes in the year (as they say) not taring in Scotland over one day or two nights going and coming without wages at theire owne expenses Save that of late it was ordered that the footmen within the lordshippe Tynmouthe should be attendant uppon the castle theire And not to assemble with the warden unless it were for resistaunce of an urgent or daungerous in- vasion but the horsemen of that lordshippe should assemble at com- mandement of the warden And ryde with hym like as the reasidue of that countrey doth

And I have hard it reported by old borderers that for an urgent necessitye either defence of the invasion of the enemye or for a notable incourse into Scotland the inhabitants of the bishopprick of Duresme ought to be and assemble at the monytion of the warden of the East

The nomber that have usually beene sent forth of the countrey of Durham for the resistaunce of an invasion of the enemies within the East and Middle Marchies have bene one thousand men or thereabouts And towards an exployt or journey to be done in Scotland V2 men or thereabouts And for the assembly of that releife The warden have used to writt to the Bishop of Durham (if he were dwelling within the county) And in his absence to the Shreiff and other the officers of the same countrey The power of hable men within the marchies as hath appeared at the late musters hath beene horsemen and footmen about XV£ men whereof were ablye horsed to serve at jorneys in Scotland eight hundred horsemen And the way to assemble them is either by burning of beacons uppon the night tyme or proclamations in Markett Townes And by letters sent to the gentlemen officers and headsmen within the precint of theire marchies therein appoynting the time and place of theire assembley

%* This article, from the beginning of the reign of Henry the 6th, was copied in London, March 13, 1821, from an old but very incorrect Calendar; and though numerous corrections have been made in this part of it, there are still some passages in it, which to the editor are obscure and unintelligible.

ARTICLE V. Extracts respecting Northumberland, from the Abridge- ment of the Rolls in the Exchequer, called THE ORIGINALIA.

*

This work is contained in two folio volumes, the first of which was printed in 1805, and the second in 1810. " The Originalia are the estreats transmitted from the Court of Chancery" into the Lord Treasurer's Remembrancer's Office, " of all Grants of the Crown inrolled on the Patent and other Rolls, whereon any rent is reserved, any salary payable, or any service to be performed, which estreats commence about the beginning of the reign of Henry the Third, and are continued to a late period." See more on this subject in Jones's Index.

ARTICLE VI. Extracts jrom the Volume of Public Records, en- tituled^ PLACITORUM IN DOMO CAPITULARI WESTMONASTERIENSI ASERVATORUM ABBREviATio, 50 far as relates to Northumber- land.

*#* The following abstracts of Pleadings were made by Mr Arthur Agard, and other keepers of such Records during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. " From the commencement of these Pleadings in the reign of Richard the First, to the end of the reign of King John, the abstract has been framed for the most part from Rolls of the Curia Regis; but as it is difficult to decide now when the pro*- ceedings in the Curia Regis finished, and the component branches of that court became distinct and permanently severed, the whole of the work has, therefore, been printed under the title of l PLACITORUM ABBREVIATIO.' During the reigns of Edward the First and Second, far the greater part of the abstract is collected from Rolls of Pleadings in the King's Bench. There are, however, numerous Pleadings under mixed titles," of which Mr Illingworth has given a list in his Preface to the volume from which these extracts are taken.

LENDARIUM RoTULORUM PATENTIUM IN TuRRI LoNDINENSI.

*#* " The Patent Rolls in the tower of London commence in the third year of the reign of King John, and end in the twenty-third year of that of Edward the Fourth." " They contain grants of offices and lands — restitutions of temporalities to bishops, abbots, and other ecclesiastical persons — confirmations of grants made to bodies corporate as well ecclesiastical as civil — grants in fee farm — special liveries — grants of offices special and general — patents of creations of peers and licences of all kinds which pass the great seal ; and on the backs of these Rolls are commissions to justices of the peace, of sewers, and all commissions, indeed, which pass the great seal. It may be proper to observe, that as this calendar, though entitled to great merit, is only a selection, various entries appear on the patent rolls which are not here described ; and, therefore, though this work will be found to yield abundant information, no one is to be deterred from an exami- nation of any record referred to elsewhere, as being on the Patent Roll, because it is not to be discovered here."

ARTICLE VIIL— Extracts relative to Property in Northumberland^ from the CALENDARIUM ROTULORUM CHARTARUM.

%* The Calendar of the Charter Rolls was printed in 1803. These Rolls are " in the Tower of London," and begin in 1199 and end in 1483. " They con- tain royal grants of privileges to cities, towns, bodies corporate, and private trading companies ;" " grants of markets, fairs, and free warrens ; grants of creation of nobility from 2 Ed. 2, to the end of the reign of Edward the Fourth j grants of privileges to religious houses, &c." The Calendar itself is taken from a MS. apparently written in the time of James the First; and preserved in the Record Office in the Tower.

ARTICLE IX. — Extracts respecting Northumberland from the CALENDARIUM INQUISITIONEM AD QUOD DAMNUM.

*#* These Inquisitions are printed at the latter end of the volume of Public Records which contains the Charter Rolls. They " commence with the first year of the reign of Edward the Second, 1 307, and end with the thirty-eighth year of Henry the Sixth." " They were taken by virtue of writs directed to the escheator of each county, when any grant of a market, fair, or other privilege or licence of alienation of lands was solicited, to enquire by a jury whether such grant or alienation was prejudicial to the king or to others, in case the same should be made." A great number of the Records noticed in this article as be- longing to Northumberland, are inserted in the Calendar as relating to North- amptonshire.

PREFACE.

IN forming the plan of this work, I have thought it of importance to provide as much as possible against the introduction of foreign languages into the General and Parochial Histories ; but to give full copies from the originals of some of the most valuable records of the county, and to arrange them so as to ensure to myself a method of digesting their contents under their proper heads, and to my reader an easy plan of referring to my authorities. On these accounts, this part of my work will be found to consist of Records and Historical Papers derived from public and private sources, and from books printed by Royal Authority, but not generally known ; and to conclude with Indexes referring to the name of every person and place as often as it occurs.

That the contents of this volume, in their present form, are of a dry and un- amusing kind, is readily admitted. But while they fail to entertain, I expect

they will be considered as free from the attribute of offending, or of creating litigation ; and from the inferences I have to draw from them, and the positions I hope to place them in, I have no doubt of rescuing them from the character of dulness; and under this conviction, I could not be tempted to forego my plan, unpromising as it appears, of publishing -this volume the first, for the more flat- tering reception that one enlivened with anecdote and family and local history might have been expected to meet with.

And with respect to the utility of collections of this kind, whilst it is admitted, that no immediate pecuniary advantage, an interest of a more tangible and gratifying nature than that of amusement, is to be derived from them, it is main- tained that they contain the evidences of the improvements and the declensions of nations in the art of government ; they testify how law, and liberty, and know- ledge, and social order, and political strength, flourish or decay together ; and they prove that the application of science and of inductive philosophy to all the natural wants and policies of man dissolves and dissipates the superstitions of ignorant ages. For what tables of logarithms are to mathematicians, and of affinities to chemists, Records digested into order, are to the lawyer, the landholder, the historian, and the antiquary. " I dare assure any wise and sober man," says Dr. White Kennet, the learned bishop of Peterborough, " that historical anti- quities, especially a search into the notices of our own nation, do deserve and well reward the pains of any English student ; will make him understand the state of former ages, the constitution of governments, the fundamental reasons of equity and law, the rise and succession of doctrines and opinions, the original of ancient, and the composition of modern, tongues; the tenures of property, the maxims of policy, the rites of religion, the characters of virtue and vice, and indeed the nature of mankind."

Out of the numerous ancient and unpublished Charters with which I have been favoured, I have selected those in the First Article solely as specimens of the utility of such instruments, in illustrating the history and customs of places, and in forming pedigrees.

The three Records given below* were indifferently selected from the Calendar

* Inter recorda curias cancellariae in Turri Londoniensi adservata, scilicet, Inquisitiones post mortem de anno regni regis Henrici tertii, quadragesimo priino, n°. 25. sic continetur.

EXPLANATION.

This is used at the end of a word to show that a part of it is wanting, as Hie* for Ricardus ; fact* for factum.

This is a point or stop of frequent occurrence, but of very indefinite power.

This shows the beginnings of paragraphs. It was used in the article, Testa de Nevil, to avoid the numerous blanks that would have occurred if each paragraph had been printed separately, as in the edition from which it was taken.

The characters |, qq, z, and f, given in the foregoing table, not having occurred to the editor, as far as he recollects, either in print or manuscript, no examples of their use have been produced.

Some of the Saxon letters, as b, d ; g, g ; t, t ; D, ft]?, TH and th ; and p, w, were in common use till about the latter end of the reign of Henry the Third ; after which time they gradually gave way to the present mode of writing them,

Numerous instances of erroneous spelling in the names of persons and places have occurred by copyists mistaking the letter t for c, as in Wautrre for Waucre, and Erhewike for Echewike : also by mistaking u for n, n for u, m for in, and y for j?, many examples of which will be found in the parts of this work which are within quotations.

VIGNETTES.

WHEN this volume was put to press the Editor had no expectation of being enabled to give many embellishments with it, nor such as could come before the public with any pretensions to taste. The facs, seals, and vignettes, excepting those stated in the note below,* and the vignette at page 118, were all cut on wood by himself, solely with the view of giving an antiquarian character to his book. But by the muni- ficence of George Anderson, of Anderson-Place, Newcastle, Esquire, in giving twenty pounds towards the expence of procuring engravings ; and by the kind and able assistance of Edward Swinburne, Esquire, in supplying him with designs, it was put into his power to employ Mr Lewis, in the aquatints ; and, in the vignettes, the artists, whose names appear in the following list of wood cuts.
