Synopsis

Explore medieval law and local power in the Bishopric of Durham through the pages of Miscellanea, Vol. 2. This volume presents printed rolls and documentary material that illuminate how the bishop’s courts evolved from seignorial to royal‑style processes, and how disputes over jurisdiction, feudal rights, and revenue were handled in the 13th century.

Delve into the practical details of the era: the long governance of Sadberge, the fight over the bishop’s jura regalia, and the shifting arrangements that tied church and crown to a single franchise. The volume also offers context on the roles of judges, stewards, and other officials, and it discusses the early forms of the bishopric’s eyre and its relation to royal procedure.

• Two main rolls anchor the work: an eyre from 1242 and a 1235–6 record of the Sadberge wapentake.


• Discussion of the Convenit, the agreement shaping profits and jurisdiction between the bishop and the priory.


• Notes on how procedures in the bishop’s courts increasingly reflected royal practices.


• Biographical and contextual details about key officials and the evolving administration of the palatinate.

Ideal for readers of medieval legal history, church‑state relations, and the administration of English palatinates.
