Reference
SC 8/229/11417
Date
[1403]
Description
Petitioners
Prior and convent of Beauvale.
Addressees
King.
Nature of request
The prior and convent request the grant of letters patent dated to the same day as earlier letters patent granted by the king to them of the alien priory of Bonby as these earlier letters have been of no use to them as the place is the rectory with the church of Bonby and not the priory.
Nature of endorsement
[None].
Places mentioned
Bonby, Lincolnshire.
Note
The petition dates to 1403 as both grants of the rectory were made on 4 April, though the latter in response to this petition was probably made later in the year in July or August (CPR 1401-5, p.270).
