Footnotes
- THOMAS GOLDWELL, S. T. P. (i.e. Doctor of Sacred Theology or “Sacrae Theologiae Professor”) of Canterbury college, in Oxford, succeeded to this priorship on his predecessor’s death in 1517, and was the last prior of this convent. He continued in the government of it till the year 1540, in which year this priory was dissolved, and the prior and monks ejected, and a dean and twelve prebendaries placed in their room. This prior being a person of exemplary virtue and revered character, was, on the new foundation of this church, offered one of the canonries or prebends of it, which he seems to have refused, for he retired with a pension of £80 per annum, settled upon him during his life. ↩︎
