LIST 28 PREBENDARIES OF PRATUM MAIUS
PREBEND
Since the preb. mentioned in the taxation of pope Nicholas IV of c. 1291 as being endowed with an acre of meadow valued at 6d is stated to have been held then by M. Richard, archdcn., it is clearly the preb. of Pratum Minus, because it is named as such when Richard's successor in the preb. was relinquishing it to take another one (see list 29). Therefore Pratum Maius must be the preb. held by M. Alan de Crepping at the time of the c. 1291 taxation, whose revenue consisted of a truss of hay valued at 2d in the manor of Marden (Taxatio p. 169a), and may also be the preb. of Pratum listed in the prebendal taxation list entered in 1294 into bp. Swinfield's register (Reg. Swinfield p. 305: the value of the preb. is effaced). Valor III 11 assessed the value of Pratum Maius at 41s 8½d, of which only 4s was revenue from the preb., the remainder consisting of small commons.
