Summary
What follows is a transcription for the first time of all Richard Redman's visitation itineraries, in his Premonstratensian visitation register (ASH). While H. M. Colvin transcribed and made some private notes (not for publication) from them – which he kindly gave the author – and at least the first itinerary from 1500 was fully transcribed by W. Farrer (The Chartulary of Cockersand Abbey III, pt 3, pp. 4143–4), it was felt that all the itineraries should be re-edited with a fresh examination of the manuscript. I am indebted to Colvin and Farrer's work on these and their usefulness in making the new transcriptions. I have capitalised place names and proper names and used my own punctuation. Certain capital letters have been reduced to the lower case and vice versa. The scribe[s] interchangeable use of ‘u’ and ‘v’ has been standardised where appropriate, but ‘t's’ and ‘c's’ (etc.) have not been modernised. Minor erasures by the scribe[s] have not been noted. Dates in roman numerals have invariably been capitalised and arabic numerals refer to the footnotes. While many of the place names in the itineraries will be obvious some may not be, and the reader is referred to E. Ekwall, The Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place-Names (Oxford, 1960), and Monast. Praem. II for variant readings of them. Where omission marks contained in the place names do not clearly render the scribe[s] intended extension of those words – into English, or Latinised English words in some cases – the omission mark alone will be indicated by an apostrophe.
