TABULATED LIST OF MEDIÆVAL HOSPITALS IN ENGLAND

_i.e. Houses for Wayfarers, Sick, Aged and Infirm, Insane, and
Lepers, founded before 1547_.

EXPLANATION OF HEADINGS, REFERENCES, SIGNS, ETC.

Dedication. When names are stated thus: “St. John [& St. Anthony],”
this signifies that the name in brackets is less
frequently used.

Date. The date given is that of the first accredited reference.
The foundation was frequently earlier. _c._=_circa_;
_bef_=before.

Founder. This term includes benefactor and re-founder.

Patron. In the majority of cases entered as “Private,” the
advowson was vested in the Lord of the Manor. Where two
names are inserted they represent a change of patronage.

L. i.e. Leper; this denotes the nominal aim of the charity,
which was not necessarily confined to lepers.

* An asterisk signifies that there are considerable
architectural remains (chapel, hall, etc.).

† Indicates slight architectural remains (e.g. masonry,
windows).

‡ This sign before a dedication-name implies that some
endowment exists under that name or the name of the
founder.

Seal. Denotes that either a matrix or an impression is in
existence. A specimen is usually to be found in the
British Museum. _Soc. Antiq._ refers to the Society of
Antiquaries, London.

Italics. The use of italics implies uncertainty.

Foot-notes. “Patent” and “Close” refer to the printed Calendars of the
Public Record Office, space not permitting of fuller
details.
