About this ebook

The charters issued by Prince John, and later King John Lackland, detail his grants to the citizens of Bristol for habitation in Dublin and the allocation of the tithe of ale and mead to the church of St. Thomas. The first charter confirms the rights and liberties of the Bristol men in Dublin, while the second charter emphasizes the perpetual alms granted to the church for the sustenance of its canons. These documents reflect the administrative and religious obligations of the time, showcasing the relationship between the monarchy and local institutions.
