The next entry bearing upon the subject of tools and workshop requirements is found in an _Inventory under Privy Seal of Henry VI_, dated 1485, at which time John Stanley, of Wyrall, Cheshire, was Sergeant of the Armoury of the Tower.[26] Here we find the following items recorded:-- it’m ij yerds iij q’ters of corse rede sylke } All splendid and moch It’m d’yerds d’q’reters of rede vele wet } more to coom of the It’m iiij grosses of poyntes[27] } king’s harneys It’m vj armyng nales[28] } It’m hamer, j bequerne, j payr of pynsonys, iij pounde of wyre which was sold by Mastr. Wylliam Fox amerer The “bequerne” is the same as the “bicorn” mentioned in the Dover Castle inventory. In the earlier periods we have no records as to the material used or the quantities required. It is only when we come to the sixteenth century that we find detailed accounts kept to assist our investigations respecting the making of armour. The next inventory worthy of note contains a list of payments made to John Blewbery, who was in charge of the workshops in 3 Henry VIII, 1514. _Public Record Office._ xviii September Also payde by Owre Commandement to John Blewbery for the new fforge at Greenwiche made for the Armarers of Brussells these peces ensuynge. s. d. a vyce xiii iv a greate bekehorne lx a smalle bekehorne xvi a peyre of bellowes xxx a pype stake[29] iii iv a Creste stake[30] iv a vysure stake[31] iv a hanging pype stake[32] iv iv a stake for the hedde pecys[33] v ii curace stakes[34] x iv peyre of Sherys[35] xl iii platynge hamers[36] viii iii hamers for the hedde pecys v a creste hamer for the hedde peces xx ii hamers ii viii ii greve hamers[37] iii iv a meeke hamer[38] xvi ii pleyne hamers ii ii platynge hamers ii ii chesels wt. an halve viii a creste hamer for the curace xii ii Rewetinge hamers[39] xvi a boos hamer[40] xii xi ffylys[41] xi a payre of pynsors xviii ii payre of tongs xvi a harth stake[42] vi ii chesels & vi ponchons ii a watr.
