[120] Domesday, “Canonici S. Stephani tenent Lanstaveton. Ibi sunt iv. hidæ terræ, &c. De hoc manerio abstulit comes Moriton unum mercatum, quod ibi erat T.R.E.” [121] Plac. coram rege, 2 c. 2. Hill, rot. 20. [122] Leland. Itin. vol. ii. p. 109. [123] Not friers, as Magn. Brit. Antiq. et Nov. p. 333. [124] “And took the residew himself,” saith Leland [Itin. vol. ii. p. 110.] But in the recital of the donors and donations of this priory, made in the charter of king John, there is no mention at all of this bishop; but therein Reginald the son of K. Henry I. and earl of Cornwall seems to make the greatest figure, and he was certainly a considerable benefactor, if not founder of this new house, as he is said to be by Camden. [125] Here could not be less than twelve canons, for the prior and eleven subscribed to the supremacy, A. D. 1534. as Willis’ Abbies, vol. ii. p. 53. [126] And also in the register of Edm. Lacy bishop of Exon, marked _Lacy_, vol. iii. [127] Survey, f. 81. b. f. 116. b. [128] Carew, f. 68. a. [129] Lib. præced. B. 85. [130] Carew’s Survey, f. 81. b. [131] _Quære_, Perhaps the same with St. John Baptist chantry in this church. Willis’ Abbies, vol. ii. p. 54. [132] St. Matthew’s in Tanner. St. Mawes appears in the Exeter Registers and in Leland’s Itin. to be no other than a corruption of St. Mauduits. See Lacy’s Register, vol. iii. Leland Itin. vol. iii. 19. and Willis, Rot. Parl. vol. ii. p. 166. [133] Domesday, “Ecclesia S. Michaelis tenet Triwal, Brismar tenebat T.R.E. Ibi sunt ii. hidæ, quæ nunquam geldaverunt, &c. de his ii. hidis comes Moriton abstulit i. hidam.” [134] Not William, as Mr. Camden and Mr. Speed; this last author mentions the monasteries of S. Michael de Monte, and S. Michael de Magno Monte, as distinct religious houses in this county, for which I have not yet met with any other authority.
