Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of land ownership and social structures in medieval South Wales. It does so through a meticulous examination of a fourteenth-century survey of the lands and rents belonging to the Bishop of St. David's. The author meticulously analyzes the survey, uncovering a complex tapestry of English and Welsh customs woven together through centuries of Norman influence and conquest. The text highlights the gradual encroachment of English law and feudalism upon the existing Welsh tribal systems, offering a glimpse into the intricate interplay of power and tradition during a period of significant social and political change. The book examines the evolution of towns and villages, exploring the different ways in which English settlers established their own communities within a Welsh landscape. It reveals how English legal concepts like burgage tenure were applied, modified, and even blended with Welsh customs, creating a unique blend of social and legal structures. This book provides invaluable insight into the complexities of medieval South Wales, showcasing how the region's cultural identity was forged through a dynamic interaction between English and Welsh practices.
