Content description

Agreement between the Provost and College of Eton and Lawrence Lord of Fritwell, Oxon., gent.: by indenture of the same date the Provost and College have leased to Lord the manors of Goldcliff, Nash and Coldrey [Coldra] in Monmouthshire for 20 years; amongst rents and covenants is one requiring Lord to pay 30 oxen of different sizes yearly, or in default £3 6s 8d each for the moiety of the oxen of lesser size, and £5 6s 8d each for the moiety of oxen of the larger size. The parties agree that if Lord pays the College £30 for every 10 oxen he shall be discharged of the obligation. This agreement is similar to one with the previous tenant, Henry Milbourne, esq., now deceased, made at first because of the great quantity of land swallowed up by the sea.
Signed by the Provost, Vice Provost and 4 Fellows.
