Description: | The pale rectangle of vellum stuck to this flyleaf would formerly have been on the outside cover of the binding, underneath a piece of transparent polished horn held in place by nails at the corners. Two copper-stained nail-holes are still visible. Usually only the author and/or title are mentioned; in this case ownership by the Augustinian priory of the Virgin Mary, Thornton-on-Humber, is also recorded: 'Historia de Gestis Pontificum Anglorum. Constat monasterii beate Marie de Thornton super Humbream' | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
