Synopsis

Delve into medieval land, law, and local power through the Gloucestershire Inquisitions Post Mortem.

This volume compiles abstracts from 14th-century inquests, showing how estates were held, transferred, and valued as feudal authorities and local courts recorded them.

Edited by Edward Alexander Fry, the work covers a span from 1302 to 1358, presenting concise summaries that illuminate how property and allegiance shaped life in Plantagenet Gloucestershire. The edition brings together documentary material that helps readers understand medieval administration, tenure, and the workings of the Court of Chancery.

• Concrete examples of landholding, tenure, and feudal service drawn from primary records
• A window into how medieval escheat and wardship affected property and heirs
• Notes on valuation, rents, and the link between land and local power structures
• Context for researchers and students studying medieval law, land tenure, and genealogy

Ideal for readers of medieval history, legal history, and genealogical study who want documentary insight without wading through full manuscripts.
