One of the earlier recorded grants of recently seized monastic property - the buildings, site and associated properties being described as "suppressed and dissolved by the authority of Parliament" - this grant requires Culpeper, who had
previously paid £42 per annum, "to pay one fourth of a knight's fee and £8.3s.4d which is a tenth part of the value of the property".
The document shows one small area of discolouration and has a slight weakness to one fold, but is otherwise in remarkably fine and fresh condition and has a virtually intact seal suspended from the original green and white cord.
