King.
Places mentioned
Nature of request
Nicholas de Teukesbury states that a commission from Chancery to inquire into whether it is to the King's harm or prejudice, or that of anyone else, if the vill of Dartmouth becomes a free borough has been returned that it is not to anyone's harm; but that the Chancellor does not wish to take the fine for making the charter for this without the King's special command. He requests the King's grace on this matter.
Nature of endorsement
[None].
Note
C 143/139/18 is dated 13 Edward II (8 July 1319-7 July 1320), so this petition must date from shortly afterwards. The borough of Dartmouth originally comprised three distinct settlements, Clifton, Dartmouth and Hardness, sometimes combined, as here, into a single place name.
