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.

of  Gaunt ;  3  — 12  to  20  John  of  Gaunt ;  4 — 21  and  22  John  of  Gaunt ;  5 — I  to  10 
Henry  V.  ;  6 — I  to  27  Henry  VI.  ;  7 — 28  and  29  Henry  VI.  ;  8 — various  years 
of  Henry  VI.  and  Edward  IV.  ;  9 — 10,   17,  and  19  Edward  VI.  ;  10— Henry 
VII.     35^  Report  of  the  Deputy- Keeper  of  the  Public  Records,  App.  no.  2,  49. 

2  ysth  Report  of  the  Deputy- Keeper  of  the  Public  Records,  i-viii. 

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.  1399—1413. 

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,

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.

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.
