Full Description
There was one bakehouse recorded within the main manor in 1262, worth 40/-, and it is recorded again in 1306 but in 1295 two are mentioned, both held at farm. Cirencester Abbey's Rectory Manor was also of sufficient size to warrant a bakehouse in it own right, which still existed in 1538, when it is stated it formerly was worth 6/8d per annum. The location of these bakehouses within the town has not been established. By 1607, as is usual by this time, the common bakehouse in the main manor had gone out of use, having in this case been converted into a house. (1)
