Description

County or diocese: Kent.

Grant: Two ninths and fifteenths and tax on wool, 1340 Apr 3.

Document type: Receipt.

Folios or pages: 1.

This document is evidently a receipt relating to the collection in Kent of the wool tax part of the grant of two ninths and fifteenths and the tax on wool made to Edward III in 1340. The document records the delivery of wool by the collectors to the commissioners of this tax, noting the date of delivery and the amounts handed over.

The document is dated.

This receipt has almost certainly become detached from the larger bundle of documents for the 1340 tax now forming the piece at E 179/242/20.

This piece was originally catalogued as E 179/242/20*, and should still be ordered as such.
