Full Description

{1} Serjeantson refers to the presence of a new hospital in the town in 1439, however the actual description is 'novo hospicio'. It may be that this is simply the new inn established by the warden of the College. However there is a record in 1439 that John Attespittel was fined for occupying an oven in the new spital.
