Full description and record details

Reference
SC 8/225/11230
Date
? 1381
Description
Petitioners
? No Petitioner named
Nature of request
Bond of William de Dudhill binding himself in the sum of 100 marks to White and Newark, to be paid at Beverley at the feast of the apostles Peter and Paul next.
Nature of endorsement
The condition of the writing is that if Dudhill stands to the judgment of the archbishop and his council in the matters that the community of Beverley should bring then the obligation is to be null.
Places mentioned
Beverley, [East Riding of Yorkshire].
People mentioned
William Dudhille (Dudhill) of Beverley
Richard de Midilton (Middleton), late alderman of Beverley
Thomas White, chamberlain of Beverley
Henry de Newerke (Newark), chamberlain of Beverley
Alexander [de Neville], archbishop of York.
Note
The bond is dated in its dating clause to 27 June 1380 (4 Ric. II). However, this is likely to be an error as the bond is almost certainly contemporary with bonds such as SC 8/225/11225 and 11226, and the scribe who produced the bond forgot that Richard II's regnal year began on 22 June, and the bond actually dates to 1381. If the dating is not an error it would push the date of the rebellion in Beverley back quite considerably as C.T. Flower dated the period of the taking of the bonds from 8 June 1381 to the end of the month (Beverley Town Riots, pp.83-4).
