| Title | The chantries of the East Riding of Yorkshire at the dissolution in 1548 |
| Date | 1972 |
| Description | A survey of the chantries in the East Riding before the dissolution of the monasteries. Includes a table with a list of chantries and the source of their endowments |
| Abstract | By comparing the information contained in the summary or 'brief' certificate made by the chantry commissiioners in 1548 with that in the minsters' accounts in the Public Record Office, and the subsequent award of pensioins to the dispossessed chantry priests, it is possible to arrive at something like the total of information presented by the commissioners in their full certificates, which have not survived for the East Riding. This paper seeks to describe the role of the chantries, colleges and similar institutions in the area at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries |
