Item description from seller

The article describes a detailed financial record of King Edward I's expenditures at Rhuddlan Castle during 12811282, a period marked by Welsh resistance led by Llywelyn ap Gruffudd. The roll, discovered in 1805 among the unsorted records in the White Tower, consists of four membranes detailing payments made to carpenters, masons, smiths, and other workmen involved in the fortification and expansion of the castle. The research highlights the wages of laborers, including archers, sailors, and haymakers, the construction expenses, particularly for castle defences, military preparations in response to Welsh uprisings, and economic insights into medieval royal administration. Rhuddlan Castle served as Edward I's headquarters during his campaign against the Welsh, and many of his orders and military directives were issued from this location. The roll provides a fascinating glimpse into medieval governance, military logistics, and financial management. 48 pages. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 25 x 30 cms. Category: Archaeologia; Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers. A bookseller you can rely on. Softcover (Booklet - Unbound Pages).…
