Abstract:		 Faced with dwindling revenues from taxation of a contracting economy during the late 16th and early 17 centuries, the search for means to bolster corporate income was never far from the minds of Rye's early Stuart governors . Examination of the fiscal policies pursued at Rye between 1600 and 1640 shows a corporation sensitive of the need to avoid placing additional burdens on already hard-pressed sectors of the economy, and nervous of the impact of general tax levies. But it also reveals the corporation 's ability to exploit and increasing dependence on - the revenue potential of the drink trade, and its willingness to deploy the machinery of the courts as a means of taxing illicit trading activities and a range of minor infringements of the law.
