Register of John Waltham, Bishop of Salisbury 1388-1395
Author:
T.C.B. Timmins
Published:
1994
Medium: Book
Publisher:
Boydell & Brewer Ltd
The 235 folios of John Waltham's register contain letters, dispensations and letters dimissory, institutions; parochial visitations, and judicial acta. Five of the calendar's seven appendices supply additional related matter. As well as expediting routine business, the bishop is seen resolving, with royal support, a longstanding dispute with his chapter, resisting metropolitical visitation, using canon law to excuse his failure to levy papal taxes and statute law to safeguard patronage from papal provisions, and uncovering details about Lollard masses. It is of some interest that the clerks who preside over his courts differed markedly in their methods and sentencing policy. The medieval diocese of Salisbury covered the old counties of Berkshire, Dorset and Wiltshire, and the register will be of considerable interest to local historians as well as to medievalists.

Wiltshire 1830 Pigot's Directory
Published:
1830
Medium: CD
Publisher:
Archive CD Books
One of the earliest directories, this one covers the whole of the county, with descriptions of all of the towns and main villages, churches, schools, etc. and a listing of people with trades. Everything from doctors to candle makers, dress makers working from home to chimney sweeps, butchers, bakers and bricklayers, etc. A huge amount of early 19th century information of interest to historians and genealogists.
This county directory was purchased from a book dealer as a loose collection of unbound pages with no cover. Originally it would have been part of a combined county volume, and therefore when Archive CD Books finally obtained all of the other parts of the book (over a period of time from many different book dealers) they decided to reinstate it as you see illustrated here. Beautifully rebound in half leather, with hand made marbled paper and real gold leaf lettering and lining on the spine.
