The project was funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
Additional funding was provided by the University of Winchester.
Previous stages of the project were funded by the British Academy (Small Grants) and the Marc Fitch fund.
The parish boundaries used in the maps have been provided by the Great Britain Historical GIS Project at University of Portsmouth, thanks in particular to Humphrey Southall, Chris Bennett, Paula Aucott and the Frederick Soddy Trust. The boundaries are copyright Great Britain Historical GIS/University of Portsmouth; further details from gbhgis@port.ac.uk.
Datasets of georeferenced placenames were provided by two sources. Bruce Campbell provided data compiled for his England on the eve of the Black Death: an atlas of lay lordship, land, and wealth, 1300-49, (Manchester, Manchester University Press, 2006). The National Archives provided data compiled for the E179 database of taxation records. Both datasets drew in turn on R. E. Glasscock (ed.) The lay subsidy of 1334 (Oxford, 1975). We are grateful to all involved.
Permission to reproduce the content of CIPM 21-26 has kindly been granted by Boydell and Brewer and the National Archives. These volumes are all in print and available for purchase from Boydell, price £195.
Images of inquisitions post mortem and other documents in the National Archives are reproduced by kind permission of the National Archives.
We would also like to thank Phil Gooch for his important contributions to the technical development of the project.
