page 7 note 5 Below, pp. 167, 174–5, 185. The domestic esquires of the abbot's household are to be distinguished from the holders of the ancient domestic serjeanties at Westminster Abbey. A description of the duties of the serjeanty of the kitchen in 1319 shows clearly that they lay in the convent's kitchen, not in the abbot's (W.A.M. 5886*). Two other serjeanties were redeemed from their lessee during Wenlok's abbacy (Flete, p. 117).Google Scholar
page 7 note 6 Stipends were paid to eleven or twelve domestic servants in 1306 (1.208,231), but the stipends themselves suggest that one or two of these may have been esquires; if so, the number of yeomen and grooms was slightly smaller than it had been in 1289–90. For the fur allowances in 1306 see below, p. 201.

page 8 note 7 The practice of lending horses to demesne manors is shown by I.109.1. 35 refers to a different situation: while the abbot was for a time at Westminster some of his horses had been stabled at one of the inlying demesne manors.

page 9 note 1 For a list of Wenlok's annuitants see below, pp. 30–32. Adam de Fileby, proctor for Wenlok at the curia in 1284, should be noted as one to whom the abbot gave furs but who, as far as we know, was not a regular annuitant (I. 4; W.A.M. 9436; Pearce, , Walter de Wenlok, p. 22Google Scholar, ‘Phyleby’). See Emden, , Biographical Reg. of the University of Oxford to A.D. 1500 (Oxford, 1957–1959), ii, pp. 683–84Google Scholar. The advowson of the church of Denham, which Fileby held in commendam after 1271, belonged to Westminster Abbey.

page 9 note 6 Only the fourth part of the customary compiled under Ware now survives. References to Henry III as of ‘pious’, ‘commendable’ and ‘laudable’ memory suggest that it was probably not finished before 1272 (Customary, ii, pp. 45, 92Google Scholar); see also Archaeologia, lxii (1910), i, p. 88.Google Scholar
