Comments
In the reigns of Edward the first, and in the 10th, 14th, 17th, and 19th of Edward the 2nd, further Grants were likewise issued in aid of repairing the Walls. (Bush)
No reference for these grant given by Bush and I can only find that of 14 Edward II in the CPR. Does not seem to be an error for Edward III. Bush was, presumably, working from Town records.
