Originally published in 2008, this final volume of the Heads of
Religious Houses: England and Wales series takes the lists of
monastic superiors from 1377 to the dissolution of the monastic
houses ending in 1540 and so concludes a reference work covering
six hundred years of monastic history. In addition to surviving
monastic archives, record sources have also been provided by
episcopal and papal registers, governmental archives, court
records, private, family and estate collections. Full references
are given for establishing the dates and outline of the career of
each abbot or prior, abbess or prioress, when known. The lists are
arranged by order: the Benedictine houses; the Cluniacs; the
Grandmontines; the Cistercians; the Carthusians; the Augustinian
canons; the Premonstratensians; the Gilbertine order; the
Trinitarian houses; the Bonhommes; and the nuns. An introduction
discusses the use and history of the lists and examines critically
the sources on which they are based.
