A Wydeslade Inventory

352. A WYDESLADE INVENTORY.
[? 1480.]

     This is probably to be dated 1480, the year when Agnes Wydeslade married
Sir William Stonor. It may relate to goods delivered to her on that occasion.
The original is so defective that it cannot be fully deciphered. But the
specification of the rooms, and some of the items—especially the hand gun,
and four guns—are interesting. From Chancery Misc. 37, iv. 64.
