Footnotes

1. A Terrar is the same as a terrier – i.e. a list of possessions, normally those of an ecclesiastical body. ↩︎
2. Demeasne or demesne is land retained and managed by the lord of the manor – in this case the Dean & Chapter of Canterbury Cathedral. It approximates to “domain” in current English. ↩︎
