This confirms his wife's name and gives an occupation.


'Misc. Roll DD: 14 Dec 1347 - 29 Jan 1356 (nos 400-449)', London

Fri. 2 Mar. 1352. Andrew Aubrey, mayor, Simon Fraunceys, Richard
Lacer, Roger de Depham, William de Causton, John de Gloucestre,
Richard de Berkyng, William de Welde and Simon de Worstede, aldermen.

430. Thomas B(—) complains that whereas Isabel relict of Nicholas de
Basyngge gave by deed, produced in court, to Deodatus de Bedeford,
goldsmith, a vacant plot of land in the par. of St. Peter de Westchepe
now held by the pl., guaranteeing to him the light into and out of
(cum libero introitu et exitu luminis) the windows on the south side
thereof, John de Brynchesle, citizen and goldsmith, and Margery his
wife, have begun to build a house opposite his cellar and solar, thus
blocking his light. The defs. come and say that the pl. is not
entitled to the view and light of the said windows, because the
tenement from which he claims them is his own, and was formerly a
vacant plot of land on which his predecessors built, thus blocking
their own light. The pl. makes reply that his whole tenement, in
length, height and depth, as far as the vacant plot of land from which
he claims the light, was built long ago, and that at the time of
building the stones of the windows of the cellar were cut and already
in position, and the windows of the solars above were built at the
same time. A day is given to the parties at the next Husting of Common
Pleas on Mon. [? 5 Mar.] but an adjournment follows at their request
until Mon. 19 Mar. Finally the mayor and aldermen, with the masons and
carpenters sworn to the assize, come upon the land on Wed. 21 Mar.,
and find that the pl.'s tenement was built long ago and all at one
time. Judgment that the pl. have the light of the windows of his
cellar and solars, and that within 40 days etc. the building begun by
the defs. be demolished. [The lower part of the membrane is torn,
badly damaged and partly illegible. 430 is followed by a heading, an
essoin and another heading, all partly illegible.]
