LIST 13 PREBENDARIES OF EIGNE

PREBEND

The preb. of Eigne may have been endowed with some of the land around the gate ('circa portam') of Hereford, belonging to the church of Hereford in the 11th cent., some of which was held by two episcopal chapls. from the church (DB I 182d). The episcopal chapls. prob. served bp. Robert the Lotharingian's chapel, and since this was not endowed separately from the cath. they prob. formed part of the cath. community (cf. J. Barrow, 'A Lotharingian in Hereford' p. 35). In c. 1291 rents at Eigne and Aylstone with half an acre of meadow were valued at £2 18s 6d for pope Nicholas's taxation (Taxatio p. 169a: Ynyne and Aylyneston') and in 1294 at 10s in the list entered into bp. Swinfield's register (Reg. Swinfield p. 305: Yegne). Valor III 12 assessed Eigne at 74s 9½d gross, 69s 5½d net.
