Scope and content
Order of the Court of Chancery, 1624, resulting from a case between Ellis Sutton, plt., and William Vaughan, Henry Price, Hugh Jones and others, concerning lands in Harlech which the plt claimed by virtue of a grant by Lord Eure, constable of the castle and mayor of the town, and the bailiffs and burgesses in 1611/12, and which came to him through subsequent assignments. The defts' claim rested on several letters patent granted by Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth. The court ordered that a commission be established for redemption of the plt 's grant of land, redemption of the estate back to the Corporation of Harlech and prevention of future grants of the town 's lands and revenues for any periods exceeding 21 years, restricting them to burgesses only, for the exclusive benefit of the town and its corporation.
