Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In the 1520s Cardinal Wolsey dissolved twenty-nine monastic houses, appropriating the revenue to support two colleges at Oxford and Ipswich. The paper reviews the procedures employed by Cromwell, Wolsey's agent, to bring about these suppressions, and the contemporary significance of the appropriation and destruction of monastic buildings. A survey book compiled by William Brabazon records considerable detail about the appearance of five of the suppressed houses, indicating that they had a manorial character. An additional survey survives for the monastery at Rumburgh. The `Little Dissolution' differed from the later dissolutions in a number of important respects, but some of the strategies developed were later redeployed. Includes | ||
