Excerpt from Visitations of Religious Houses in the Diocese of Lincoln, Vol. 2: Records of Visitation Held by William Alnwick, Bishop of Lincoln, A. D. 1436 to A. D. 1449; Part I The English translation throughout has been made with the aim of a literal reproduction of the meaning of the original, and, where slight amplifications have been necessary, the added words have been put in square brackets. A very few passages, where translation seemed un desirable, have been left untranslated, and are indicated by dots or asterisks. It is hoped that the somewhat copious annotations will be found to contribute to the understanding of the difficult passages and the historical and local allusions with which the text abounds.
