Norfolk, North Erpingham Hundred, Barningham Town & Northwood, Subsidy Taxes, 1522

Document Reference: E101/61/16

The original document is in the custody of the Public Record Office. This 1522 record is a valuation that led to the subsidy of 1524. It records the wealth of individuals in land, goods and cattle and other sources of income. The poor are usually simply recorded as 'nihil' (nothing). It is not a record of tax paid. A muster was called at the same time which is recorded separately in this archive (see under musters). The original 98 page document is in exceptionally good condition and lists the poor in each parish. Monetary abbreviations used: Pd=Pound, s=shilling, d-pence, Mk=Mark. A Mark was two-thirds of a pound (13s 4d)
