There appears on the statue roll of 2 Edward IV. c. 9, an Act of Parliament, whereby, after stating that divers grants had been made by Henry VI. of divers customs to be levied within the towns of Trim, Naas, Le Navan, Athboy, Kenlis, and Fowre, and within the franchises of same, for murage, pavage, and repair of the bridges of said towns; and that some held an opinion that these grants so made by Henry VI. were become void, but that if the said customs should be withdrawn from the said towns, it would be to the very great disadvantage of them, it was ordained, that every such grant of customs, to be levied in each of said towns and the franchises of the same, should be ratified, approved, and confirmed in all points: provided always, that said Act should not be prejudicial to the city of Dublin or the towns of Drogheda, Atherde, or Scryne.
