  1. Does not include other revenues that go into funds at castles and the wardrobe (personal funds) and revenues for ransom.
  2. The Round Church was consecrated in 1185 by the patriarch of Jerusalem. It was designed to recall the holiest place in the Crusaders’ world: the circular Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
  3. During the First Crusade, the Pope decided that knights of different nationalities should be distinguished by different colors of cross: English crusaders would be distinguished by wearing a white cross on red, and French crusaders a red cross on white, with Italian knights allocated a yellow cross on a white background.[1] At some point however English crusaders began wearing the red cross on white.In 1188 the French King, Philip II of France accepted the claim of the English to the red cross on white,[2] and the English and French officially exchanged their respective crosses. As both English and French crusaders had thereby become associated with the symbol, it became the standard Crusader emblem.
  4. Dating from around the same time, in Conisborough, near Doncaster, is an image on a grave slab which appears to depict St George defending a bishop from a dragon
  5. It depicts St George on horseback carrying a lance. To the right are two crusaders kneeling in prayer and to the left are two pagan soldiers, fleeing in panic (Budge 1930 26; Marcus 41; Riches 22–23). Thus, George is seen as suppressing human enemies rather than a dragon. This carving is contemporary with times his spectral form was apparently seen in the first crusade, leading the knights in the sieges of Jerusalem (1096–99) and Antioch (1097–98), so George is depicted as a crusader knight.
  6. In theory, all property of the‘King’s Jews’ escheated to the Crown on death, but in practice the kingwas usually content with a ‘relief’ of one-third of the estate. Aaron’s wealthwas so great (he was the wealthiest financier of the medieval EnglishJewry) that Henry II could not resist the temptation to confiscate hisentire fortune. A special department (the ScaccariumAaronis) was createdto deal with the business of realising outstanding loans, and possiblyopened the eyes of the treasurer to the profits that could be made fromJewish usury.
  7. Jews apparently could not own land but only as a pledge (or gage). In default they gained the income from the land. Their interests were sold on an open market with the investor paying off the debt to acquire the land. Monasteries were frequent investors.
  8. A house built c1170 with late 18th and 19th century alterations was restored in 1878 and again during the 20th century. The building is situated on the eastern side of Steep Hill with an elevation to Christs Hospital Terrace. The building is double range in plan and two storeys high with an attic range lit by segmental headed windows on the southern gable. It is constructed of dressed stone and brick with two double pitch pantile roofs with chimney stacks at the northern gable and between the ranges. The principle facade to Steep Hill has a four window range with a casement to the far left, two central sashes and a two light Norman round headed window with a central column and decorated capitals under a deep hood mould. The ground floor has two central entrance doorways, the left door is an 18th century insertion with an attached bow shop window and the right door is round headed with single shafts and crocket capitals under a truncated hood. To the far right is a casement shop window with a wooden pilaster surround and cornice and to the far left is a partially blocked small two light casement window. The house is associated with Aaron the Jew and is very similar to Jews House approximately 160m south.
  9. Cecil Roth identified these from names which is often a questionable method.
