Cox 1738 Here was also a Chapel founded by John de Pontissara, Bishop of Winchester, dedicated to St. Elizabeth, Daughter of the King of Hungary, and built before the Gate of his Castle of Wolvesley, for one Provost and six Clerks, of which last, three to be Deacons and three Subdeacons, and all to go by the Name of Chaplains. The Bishop of Winchester was to supply all Vacancies, and the Clerks to have their Board with the Provost, and all to live and diet in the same House. Their Rule was, That every Chaplain have a little Clerk to serve him in the Church, and in his Chamber, and none else: That they should rise at Break of Day, and repairing to their Chapel, first say the Matins of the Blessed Virgin with a low Voice, and then sing the Matins for the Day, &c. That their divine Offices should be celebrated according to the Use of Sarum; that no Woman should come into any Part of their House, but the Chapel and Hall; and the Chaplains to be all sworn to observe these Orders, and reside personally. The Deed of the foundation is dated, Anno 1301, 30 Edw. I. Simon Fareham, and divers others, were Benefactors to this Chapel, and gave divers Lands, Manors, and Rents to it, which were all confirmed by the Kings, Edward I. and II. It was valued at the Dissolution, at 112 l. 17 s. 4 d. ob. per Annum. |
