Bramwra (continued).
251. (C. pp. 208, 209).—The abbot of Holm and Bricius de Bramwra hold 12 acres of land at Bramwra, assessed before Robert de Ros with buildings, etc. at 11s. 6d. This they hold by the aforesaid ferm. They also hold there one acre of meadow of the purpresture worth 10d. yearly. The abbot and Bricius owe for the aforesaid ferm for 34 [read 24] years, 20s. And because they made the purpresture without warrant they are mulcted (in misericordia) and that acre of meadow is taken into the king's hand.
The abbot and Bricius hold 12 acres of land at Bramwra, assessed before G[eoffrey] de Langelay with buildings at 11s. 6d. This they hold by the aforesaid ferm. Of this land Bricius de Bramwra holds 8 acres with buildings, and the abbot holds all the remainder by these bounds:—on the water of Amot [Eamont] the land called Seynt Wolfriholm, from the top of the bank (costera) overhanging the said holm to the water of Amot in breadth, and in length from the top of the same bank as the dyke runs to the hedge (haya) on the Amot. Bricius pays the ferm, 11s. 6d. yearly, into the king's exchequer personally, for himself and the abbot. They may therefore occupy, quit of waste and reguard [c. 1255].
