INTRODUCTION. 



THIS, the third volume of Feet of Fines, or Final Concords, for 
Lancashire, contains abstracts of all the transcripts of Fines pre- 
served amongst the Palatinate of Lancaster Records in the Public 
Record Office. 1 As a rule these documents are in very bad 
condition, owing to disregard for their preservation prior to 
their removal from Lancaster Castle in i868. 2 The injury has 
mainly arisen from damp, and may probably be attributed to 
the wretched parsimony of Queen Elizabeth and a consequent 
failure to protect from the weather the building in which these 
and other Palatinate documents were then housed. 3 Conse- 
quently this series of Fines, covering the period from 1377 to 
1509, is marred by numerous deficiencies. Not a single Fine 
remains for the reign of Henry IV., and many years in the 
subsequent reigns are unrepresented. I have endeavoured to 
repair this defect to some extent by adding abstracts of any Fines 
which have been preserved in private MSS., and also from the 
Chancellors' Rolls the record of Fines paid for writs, some of 
which relate to pleas which were terminated by the levying of a 
fine. But these additions represent only a trifling addition in 
comparison to the destruction effected by the negligence of former 
record keepers.

3 By far the most serious loss sustained by the county in this respect has been 
the destruction of all the Palatinate Plea Rolls save two rolls for the 2 Henry 
IV. and 7 Henry VI. from 1377 to 1441. 



VI FINAL CONCORDS. 

During the period covered by this volume the legal process of 
establishing and confirming a transfer of land by the suffering of 
a "recovery," in addition to the levying of a "fine," began to 
come into vogue. Wherever the record of a plea entered in the 
Palatinate Plea Rolls seems to record the process employed in 
leading to a recovery, an abstract has been included in this 
volume. Other abstracts of the same nature have been added 
from Kuerderfs MSB. and from private MSS. 

The series of Final Concords commencing with the reign of 
Henry VIII. and extending down to 1834, when this process 
was abolished, are practically complete and in a good state of 
preservation. Abstracts of all Fines down to the reign of 
Charles I., and of a selection of all the more important Fines 
down to the year 1800, are in my possession, and are available 
for printing whenever the Society decides to continue the publi- 
cation of this class of record. 

I am indebted to Mr. W. K. Boyd, of Highgate, N., for 
abstracts of those Fines which are preserved in the Public Record 
Office ; and to my secretary, Mr. Thomas Price, for compiling 
the Index.

LANCASTER. 



HENRY IV., A.D. 13991413. 

Upon the accession of Henry IV. to the Crown the Duchy 
of Lancaster, with its lands, possessions, and rights, became vested 
in the King in a character and capacity altogether different from 
that in which they had been vested in John of Gaunt, Duke of 
Lancaster, by virtue of the charters of Edward III. and Richard 
II. That is to say, all principles of law, in virtue of which John 
of Gaunt had held the same possessions, were extinguished by the 
operation of the common law, and with the King's accession and 
by force of it the possession of the Duchy, with all the franchises, 
liberties, and jurisdiction, became vested in Henry IV. as King 
and not as Duke, and those sovereign prerogatives and pre- 
eminences, which by the law were uncommunicable by the 
sovereign to a subject, were added, as it were, to the Duchy in 
virtue of his higher and superior title of King, and thereupon 
immediately clothed the lands and possessions of the Duchy with 
all the prerogatives and pre-eminences which that higher and 
superior title conferred upon the sovereign and his successors. 1 

One of the first acts of King Henry IV., after his accession 
to the Crown was to grant in Parliament a charter, in which the 
lands and possessions of the Duchy of Lancaster were declared to 
be a separate inheritance, distinct from the lands and possessions 
of the Crown. The prerogatives of the King were annexed to 
the possessions so separated, but the rule and management of the 
estates was to be under an appropriate management, the distribu- 
tion of the revenues by a distinct Treasury, and the ordering of 
all things connected therewith was vested in an establishment 
called the Chancellor and Council of the Duchy. 2 

There are no Feet of Fines for the reign of Henry IV. now 
preserved amongst the Palatinate of Lancaster Records. In the 
35th Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records, 

1 The Tf>th Report of the Deputy Keeper, pp. v-vi. 
3 Ibid., vi. 



I HENRY IV. (1400). 6l 

Appendix no. 2, p. 49, it is erroneously stated that bundle 
no. 8 of Prothonotary's Records contains " Final Concords, Henry 
IV." These are fines of the reign of Henry VI., as stated in a 
MS. correction in the copy of the same report kept in the Literary 
Search Room of the Public Record Office. 

Twelve fines for this reign, which have been discovered in 
various MS. collections, are printed in this volume, and no doubt 
others may turn up from time to time among private muniments. 
But the most important indication of fines levied during this 
reign is to be obtained from the particulars of fines given for 
writs during this period, which were enrolled upon Duchy of 
Lancaster, Chancery Rolls nos. 4 and 5, and Close Roll no. I, 
printed in the Appendix to the 33rd Report of the Deputy 
Keeper, pp. 1-8, and in the Appendix to the 3Jth Report, no. 2, 
pp. 172-4. For convenience of reference the entries which 
give the name of the plaintiff (or occasionally of more than one 
plaintiff) in the suit are given below, but it must be remembered 
that only a few of the writs here particularised were issued in pleas 
of covenant afterwards concluded by the levying of a fine, the bulk 
relating to other suits pending in the court at Lancaster. The 
probable proportion of the former to the latter may be estimated 
by referring to the fines paid for writs during the first twelve 
years of the Regality of John, Duke of Lancaster, and comparing 
the total with the number of fines levied during the same 
period.

THE following documents have come to light since the volume 
was in the press : 

This is the final concord made in the court of the lord 
King on the morrow of All Saints in the seventh year of the 
reign of King Richard [2nd November, 1195], at Westminster, 
before Hubert, archbishop of Canterbury, Richard, bishop of 
London, Ralph of Hereford and Richard of Ely, archdeacons, 
William de Warren, master Henry de Castellun, Richard Heriet, 
Osbert, son of Hervey, Simon de Pateshill, and other faithful people 
of the lord King then present there. 

Between Roger de Boston \rectius Burton] and Horm, his 
brother, plaintiffs, and Robert, son of Bernard [of Goosnargh'], 
tenant of 5 carucates of land with the appurtenances in Wrstinc- 
ton \Wrightington\ and in Dauton [Da/ton, par. Wigan\ and in 
Iperbolt [Parbold] and in Moston, whereof there had been a 
plea between them in the aforesaid court, to wit, that Robert has 
remitted the whole half part of the aforesaid 5 carucates of land 
with the appurtenances from himself and from his heirs to the 
said Roger and Horm, brothers, and to their heirs for ever, that 
is, one carucate of land with the appurtenances in Wrstincton, 
that is, a half of the whole vill, and one carucate of land with the 
appurtenances in Iperbolt, and half a carucate of land with the 
appurtenances in Dauton. And for this demise of half the afore- 
said claim of Roger and Horm, the said Roger, and Horm, have 
quitclaimed the whole right and claim which they had in the 
whole remaining part which remained to the said Robert from them 
and from their heirs to the said Robert and his heirs for ever. 
And the same Roger and Horm will warrant the whole aforesaid 
half part of the land which remained to him to the aforesaid 
Robert and his heirs against all the other infants of Roger, son of 
Horm, father of the same Roger and Horm, brothers. 1

NOTE. 

This interesting Lancashire Fine of 1195 has hitherto escaped 
notice. In considering it, a later Fine of 1202 must be examined 
with it. 1 The vills of Dalton, Parbold, and Wrightington had 
been given to Orm, son of Ailward, by Albert Grelley, senex, in 
marriage with his daughter Emma, to hold by the service of one 
knight. 2 From this union descended the family of Kirkby of 
Kirkby Irleth, mesne tenants of these vills and of Ashton-under- 
Lyne, for some centuries under the barons of Manchester. Some 
time between the date of this grant and 1 195 a sub-infeudation was 
made of this knight's fee by the Kirkbys in favour apparently of 
a certain Richard de Lancaster, who was not improbably a younger 
brother of the De Kirkby who enfeoffed him thereof. In 1195 
the inheritance, it appears, had descended to Robert, son of 
Bernard, thegn of Goosnargh, and to the two sons of Roger, son 
of Orm (whom I propose to identify as the then late tenant of 
Ashton-under-Lyne, and ancestor of the notable Lancashire 
family of Assheton), 3 in right of the respective wives of Robert 
and Roger. These two sons respectively bore the names of 
Roger de Burton, 4 of Burton in Kendal, and Orm de Ashton 
of Ashton-under-Lyne. In 1202, Margaret, relict of Richard 
de Lancaster, for a consideration of 3 marks, released her dower 
right in these vills to the three heirs, Robert, Orm, and Roger. 5 
Apparently sometime between 1202 and 1242 another infeudation 
of these vills was made by the Grelleys in favour of the Lathoms 
of Lathom, for in 1242-3 Robert de Lathum held one knight's 
fee in Wrightington and Parbold of Thomas Grelley. 6

3 Roger de Wrightington, son of Orm de Ashton, was a benefactor to Cocker- 
sand Abbey, and may be identified with this Roger, son of Orm (Cockersand 
Chartul., 504). He must not be confounded with Roger, son of Orm (de Kirkby), 
whose son and heir, William, had succeeded his father before 1163.
