Comments
Despite its elevation to borough, the town did not receive a murage grant until 1303-7 (Bradley 1985) online copy
Cashel may have received murage in 1303 for 4 years (Bradley quoting RIA MS. 12/D/11 p. 8, communicated to him) (Thomas)
CIRCLE did examine the RIA MS collection but apparently (according to the given bibliography) not this particular reference.
