Continuity and change: the town, people and administration of Nottingham between c.1400 and c.1600Tools Mills, Judith Anne (2010) Continuity and change: the town, people and administration of Nottingham between c.1400 and c.1600. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
AbstractThis work is a study of continuity and change in Nottingham between 1400 and 1600. It looks first at the property, market, streets and common lands of the town before examining population trends. It investigates the social structure of the town, the wealth (or otherwise) of the people and the occupations they followed. The administration of Nottingham is also considered, in particular its institutions: the Council, the courts and presentment juries, and the networks and relationships which bind them together. It also looks at real and potential challenges to the authority of these institutions and incidents of social unrest.
