Synopsis
Excerpt from The Charters and Letters Patent: Granted to the Borough
On page 48, line 6, will be found a reference to Nowe Hythe. This means New Hethe, or New Hythe, in contradistinction to Old Hethe (now Old Heath). Nowe was written in the Charter of Edward IV. By a mistake of the scribe, and the error has been copied in subsequent Charters.
Necessarily, many of the words used in the translations are obsolete.
I have added a Glossary giving brief explanations of some of these and other words.
