Chronicle of Abbot Ralph of Coggeshall
The Chronicle of Abbot Ralph of Coggeshall (Chronicon Anglicanum) is an indispensable medieval history that brings to life centuries of English and European affairs through the eyes of a learned Cistercian monk. Ralph of Coggeshall, abbot of the Abbey of Coggeshall in Essex in the early 13th century, continued and expanded his community’s chronicle, documenting events from the Norman Conquest of 1066 into the tumultuous reign of King Henry III. Blending eyewitness testimony, careful compilation, and the monastic commitment to record-keeping, this chronicle offers a rare narrative of political intrigue, royal power struggles, and social upheaval in England and beyond. Ralph’s work captures the reigns of pivotal figures such as Richard I and King John, providing invaluable insights into their characters, decisions, and the forces that shaped medieval rule. More than a simple annal, Chronicon Anglicanum conveys the texture of medieval life and governance, making it a rich source for scholars and readers fascinated by English history, monastic authorship, and the shaping of the medieval world.

Bourgeois de Valenciennes. It happened that while the King of England was holding the siege before Calais, Louis, Count of Flanders, by the counsel and with the consent of his good towns, came into Flanders as lord of the country. He was received on condition that he should govern and rule them according to the usages and customs of the good Count Guy, his predecessor. The great and the small did him great honour, as was fitting, and as to their rightful and true lord. He remained in the land graciously and courteously, and followed the counsel of his people and of his good towns, who instructed him in sound policies. He remained in this state from Martinmas through the winter until after Easter, when the good men of Flanders, wishing to secure the best outcome, proposed and arranged the marriage between him and the eldest daughter of the King of England, so that they might be stronger in the land. They worked so effectively that they brought him to the King of England before Calais, and all ill will was pardoned on both sides. By the will of the said count, the marriage was agreed between Count Louis of Flanders [aged 16] and Isabel [aged 14], eldest daughter of King Edward of England, and they were betrothed without any deceit. The betrothal was performed by the Abbot of the Dunes at Bergues in Flanders, in the church of the abbey of Saint-Winoc. Present at the betrothal were the king [aged 34] and queen [aged 36], the Marquis of Jülich [aged 48], the Earl of Warwick [aged 34], the Duke of Guelders [aged 13] and the duchess, and many others, on the Wednesday after Mid-Lent, in the year of grace 13461. The agreements on both sides were settled, and a great feast was held. Afterwards, the Count of Flanders returned to the town of Male in Flanders. Meanwhile, while the King of England was at Bergues-Saint-Winoc, twenty ships laden with supplies came into the harbour of Calais, which greatly pleased those within the town.
Il advint qu'entandis que le roy d'Engleterre tenoit siège devant Callais, que Loys, conte de Flandres, par le conseil de ses bonnes villes et leur volenté, vint dedens Flandres, comme seigneur du pays, et fut rechups par ainsy qu'il les debvoit tenir et mener aux us et aux coustumes du bon conte Guion, son antécesseur. Sy luy firent grant honneur les grans et les petis, sycomme droit estoit, et comme à leur droiturier et vrai seigneur, et demeura au pays bellement et courtoisement, et crut le conseil de ses gens et de ses bonnes villes qui luy ensaingnoient les bons poins. Et fut en cel estât de le Saint-Martin en yver jusques après Pasques, que les bonnes gens de Flandres, pour le mieulx fait que laissiet, luy acointèrent et pourcachèrent le mariage de luy et de l'aisnée fille du roy d'Engleterre, par quoy ils fussent plus fors au pays. Et tant fisrent qu'ils l'emmenèrent au roy d'Engleterre devant Callais, et tous mautalens fussent pardonnes les ungs aux aultres, et que, par la volenté dudit conte, mariage se fist entre le conte Loys de Flandres et de Ysabel, aisnëe fille du roy Édouart d'Engleterre, et furent fianchiés sans nulle maise fraude. Sy les fiança l'abbé des Dunes à Bergues en Flandres, en l'église de l'abbaye Saint-Winoch, et furent au fianchier le roy et la royne, le marquis de Jullers, le conte de Wervich, le duc de Guéries et la ducesse et pluseurs aultres, le merquedy après le my-quaresme, l'an de grâce mil CCC et XLVI et furent les convenances de l'une partye et de l'autre prinses, et y fist-on grant feste; puis s'en râla le conte de Flandres en la ville de Malle en Flandres. Et entandis que le roy d'Engleterre estoit à Bergues-Saint-Winoch, vindrent au havre de Callais XX nefs chargies de pourvéances, dont ceulx de Callais furent moult aises.
Note 1. The betrothal of the Count of Flanders was celebrated on 13th March 1347. The marriage contract had been signed at Dunkirk ten days earlier. Edward III granted as dowry to his daughter the county of Ponthieu and the town of Montreuil, or twenty-five thousand livres in land revenue. Numerous documents relating to the negotiations that took place at that time between the King of England and the Count of Flanders have been preserved. The marriage didn't take place. He fled to France where he quickly married, on 1st July 1347, Margaret of Brabant [aged 24], daughter of the French King's ally John, Duke of Brabant [aged 47]; see next History.

Chronicle of Geoffrey le Baker of Swinbroke. In this year,1 on the feast day of Saint George [23rd April 1350], the king held a great banquet at Windsor Castle [Map], where he established a chantry of twelve priests, and founded a hospital, in which impoverished knights, whose means were insufficient, could, in the service of the Lord, receive suitable support from the perpetual alms of the founders of that college. Besides the king, other nobles contributed to the foundation of this hospital, namely: the king's eldest son, the Earl of Northampton [aged 40], the Earl of Warwick [aged 37], the Earl of Suffolk [aged 51], the Earl of Salisbury [aged 21], and other barons. Also included were simple knights, such as: Roger de Mortimer [aged 21], now Earl of March, Lord Walter de Mauny [aged 40], Lord William FitzWarin [aged 34], John de Lisle [aged 14], John de Mohun [aged 30], John de Beauchamp [aged 31], Walter de Pavely [aged 31], Thomas Wale [aged 47] and Hugh de Wrottesley [aged 16]. Men whose proven virtue ranked them among the wealthiest earls. Together with the king, all these men were clothed in robes of powdered russet, with garters of Indian colour, also wearing garters on their right legs, and mantles of blue, adorned with the shield of Saint George. In such attire, bareheaded, they devoutly attended a solemn Mass, sung by the bishops of Canterbury, Winchester, and Exeter. They then sat together at a common table, in honour of the holy martyr, to whom they dedicated this noble brotherhood, calling their company "The Knights of Saint George of the Garter."
Isto anno, in die sancti Georgii, rex celebravit grande convivium apud Wyndesore in castro, ubi instituit cantariam xij. sacerdotum, et fundavit zenodochium, in quo milites depauperati, quibus sua non sufficerent, possent in Domini servitute de perpetuis elemosinis fundatorum illius collegii sustentacionem competentem habere. Preter regem fuerunt alii compromittentes in fundacionem istius zenodochii, scilicet regis primogenitus, comes Norhamptonie, comes Warewici, comes Suthfolchie, comes Salisbiriensis, et alii barones; simplices quoque milites, scilicet Rogerus de Mortuo mari, nunc comes Marchie, dominus Walterus de Magne, dominus Willelmus filius Garini, Iohannes de Insula, Iohannes de Mohun, Iohannes de Bealchampe, Walterus de Pavely, Thomas Wale, et Hughe de Wrotesley, quos probitas experta ditissimis comitibus associavit. Una cum rege fuerunt omnes isti vestiti togis de russeto pulverizato cum garteriis Indie coloris, habentes eciam tales garterias in tibiis dextris, et mantella de blueto cum scutulis armorum sancti Georgii. Tali apparatu nudi capita audierunt devote missam celebrem per antistites Cantuariensem, Wintoniensem, et Exoniensem decantatam, et conformiter sederunt in mensa communi ob honourem sancti martiris, cui tam nobilem fraternitatem specialiter intitularunt, appellantes istorum comitivam sancti Georgii de la gartiere.
Note 1. Stow Annales 390: "This yeere, on Saint Georges day [23rd April 1350], the king held a great and solemne feast at his castle of Windsor, where he had augmented the chappel which Henry the first and other his progenitors, kings of England, had before erected, of eight chanons. He added to those eight chanons a deane and fifteene chanons more, and 24 poore and impotent knights, with other ministers and servants, as appeareth in his charter dated the two and twentieth of his reigne. Besides the king, there were other also that were contributors to the foundation of this colledge, as followeth: i. The sovereigne king Edward the third, 2. Edward, his eldest sonne, prince of Wales, 3. Henry, duke of Lancaster, 4. the earle of Warwicke, 5. Captaine de Bouch [aged 19], 6. Ralph, earle of Stafford [aged 48], 7. William Montacute, earle of Salisburie, 8. Roger, lorde Mortimer, earle of March, 9. sir John de Lisle [aged 31], 10. sir .
It will be seen that Stow here alters the names to tally with the list of the original knights or First Founders of the order of the Garter. Baker seems to be anticipating. William Bohun, 1st earl of Northampton, and Robert Ufford, 1st earl of Suffolk, and sir William Fitz-Warine became knights of the order at an early date; but Roger Mortimer, here styled 'now Earl of March,' did not have that title before 1352, and sir Walter Manny did not receive the garter till the end of 1359.
The date of the foundation of the order of the Garter has never been exactly determined. Froissart 203.
The Brute chronicle (Egerton MS. 650) has this description, although under a wrong year: "And in the XIX yere of his regne, anone aftre, in Jannuere, before Lenten, the same kyng Edward lete make fulle noble iustice and grete festes in the place of hys byrth, at Wyndsore, that ther were never none suche seyne before that tyme, ne I trowe sythene. At whech iustice, festis and ryalte weryn II kinges, II quenys, and the prince of Wales and the duke of Cornewale, ten erles, nine countesse, many barons, knyghttes, and worthy burgesse, the whech myght not lyghtly be nombrede; and also of dyverse londes as byyonde the see were many strangers. And at that tyme, whene the iustes had done, the kyng Edward made a grete souper, in the wheche he begone fyrst hys round table, and ordayned stedfastly the day of the forsayd table to be holde ther at Wyndessore in the Whytesonwyke evermore yerely."
Relying on the date given in the statutes of the order and on this passage in Baker, writers on the subject have adopted 1349 or 1350 as the year of foundation. But an entry in the household-book of the Black Prince affords a reason for dating the event a year earlier, payment having been made on the 18th November 1348, for twenty-four garters which were given by the prince "militibus de societate garterias" i.e. "garters [were given] to the knights of the society"; Beltz, Memorials of the Order of the Garter, pp. XXXII, 385. Proof however is not conclusive, as the ministers' accounts in the household-book were rendered between 1352 and 1365, and there is therefore room for error; moreover, the garters in question may have been prepared in anticipation. The date of 1349, which is given in the preamble to the earliest copies of the statutes, although it is true that those copies are not contemporary, is not to be lightly set aside. It is, indeed, most probable that the order was never solemnly instituted at an early period, but that it was gradually taking shape during the years following the foundation of the Round Table. Edward's patent, bearing date of 22nd August 1348, whereby he instituted a chapel at Windsor, with a fraternity of eight secular canons and a warden, fifteen other canons, and four-and-twenty poor knights, appears to be the first formal document which can be quoted as a foundation-deed of the order. After this there is no direct reference to it until 1350, when robes were issued for the King against the coming Feast of St. George, together with a Garter containing the King's motto, "Hony soyt qui mal y pense!" Nicolas, History of Orders of Knighthood, 1.24.

This yeere, on Saint Georges day [23rd April 1350], the king held a great and solemne feast at his castle of Windsor, where he had augmented the chappel which Henry the first and other his progenitors, kings of England, had before erected, of eight chanons. He added to those eight chanons a deane and fifteene chanons more, and 24 poore and impotent knights, with other ministers and servants, as appeareth in his charter dated the two and twentieth of his reigne.

All these, together with the king, were clothed in gownes of russet, poudered with garters blew, wearing the like garters also on their right legges, and mantels of blew with scutcheons of S. George. In this sort of apparell they, being bare-headed, heard masse, which was celebrated by Simon Islip, archbishop of Canterbury, and the bishops of Winchester and Excester, and afterwards they went to the feast, setting themselves orderly at the table, for the honor of the feast, which they named to be of S. George the martyr and the choosing of the knights of the Garter.

Chronicle of Geoffrey le Baker of Swinbroke
Baker was a secular clerk from Swinbroke, now Swinbrook, an Oxfordshire village two miles east of Burford. His Chronicle describes the events of the period 1303-1356: Gaveston, Bannockburn, Boroughbridge, the murder of King Edward II, the Scottish Wars, Sluys, Crécy, the Black Death, Winchelsea and Poitiers. To quote Herbert Bruce 'it possesses a vigorous and characteristic style, and its value for particular events between 1303 and 1356 has been recognised by its editor and by subsequent writers'. The book provides remarkable detail about the events it describes. Baker's text has been augmented with hundreds of notes, including extracts from other contemporary chronicles, such as the Annales Londonienses, Annales Paulini, Murimuth, Lanercost, Avesbury, Guisborough and Froissart to enrich the reader's understanding. The translation takes as its source the 'Chronicon Galfridi le Baker de Swynebroke' published in 1889, edited by Edward Maunde Thompson.

Westminster Chronicle. Meanwhile, on the sixteenth day of July at York, discord arose between two esquires of Lord John Holland [aged 33], the king’s brother on his mother’s side, and two valets of the earl of Stafford, who killed the aforesaid esquires and fled to a church. The people were trying to drag them out, and would indeed have done so, had not the king come more quickly to the scene. He caused them to enjoy the protection of sanctuary once he had recognised their immunity. Lord John Holland, grieving over the death of his slain men, came to the king with his complaint. The king, speaking to him wisely and gently, promised him that he would bring this affair to such an end that it would turn to his advantage and honour, expressly forbidding him to avenge himself in any way over the matter. Having obtained leave from the king, Holland made his way towards York. As he was travelling, he happened to meet the son and heir1 of the earl of Stafford. After insulting words had been exchanged on both sides, he immediately killed him, in revenge for his own slain men. When the death of the aforesaid earl’s son was made public, the king spent a long time in tears and lamentations, because he loved him most heartily, almost as one of his own age and as a companion in the flower of his youth. The earl, too, made almost mad by paternal affection, mourned him inconsolably. When the king learned of the earl’s grief, he tried to strengthen him with words of consolation, declaring with an oath that, notwithstanding the closeness of brotherhood, or any plea offered to him, John Holland would have the common law as a public murderer. Therefore, when Holland heard this, he withdrew and took himself into the county of Lancaster. The body of the earl’s son was buried, by the king’s command, at Langley [Map] in the Chilterns. Also in this summer, as some claim, the island of Rhodes was taken by the Saracens or pagans.
Interim xvi die Julii apud Eboracum orta discordia inter duos armigeros domini Johannis Holand, fratris regis ex parte matris, eb duos valettos comitis Stafford, qui armigeros prædictos occiderunt, et ad ecclesiam confugerunt ; populus vero mnitebatur eos extrahere quod vero fecisset nisi rex velocius occurrisset qui eos fecit immunitate percepta gaudere, Dominus Johannes Holand dolens super morte suorum interfectorum conquerendo venit ad regem ; quem rex sagaciter et leniter alloquens promisit ei istud factum ad talem finem perducere quod sibi cederet ad commodum et honorem, prohibens expresse ne se super hoc ullatenus vindicaret. Qui a rege obtenta licentia versus Eboracum dirigit viam suam et itinerando accidit filio et heredi comitis Stafford obviare ; quem post verba injuriosa ex utraque parte prolata protinus interfecit in ultionem suorum interfectorum. Publicata vero morte filii comitis prædicti rex diutius vacavit in lacrimis et lamentis quia illum quasi coevum et sodalem suo juventutis in flore magis corditer diligebat. Comes itaque quadam paternali affectione quasi amens effectus etiam inconsolabiliter ipsum planxit. Postquam innotuit regi de ejus mæstitia nisus est cum verbis consolatoriis confortare, protestans cum juramento, non obstante fraternali proximitate, at aliqua prece sibi porrecta, quin communem legem J. Holand haberet ut publieus homicida. Quare ille hoc audiens retraxit se et in comitatum Lancastriæ se recepit. Corpus quoque filii comitis apud Langeleye in Chylterne rege jubente fuit sepultum. Item in ista æstate ut quidam volunt capta est insula de Rhodes a Saracenis sive paganis.

Westminster Chronicle. On the third day of February, the king held a parliament at Westminster, in which Thomas [aged 33], Duke of Gloucester, Henry [aged 20], Earl of Derby, Richard, Earl of Arundel, Thomas, Earl of Warwick, and Thomas, Earl of Nottingham publicly excused themselves before the whole parliament, saying that they had never consented to, thought of, or imagined the death of the king, either secretly or openly. They declared that they were willing to prove this with their own hands against anyone contradicting them, and to defend themselves in these matters against any opponent who had a head, the king alone excepted. And since no contradictor appeared in response to this, they were considered by all to have been cleared.
Tertio die Februarii tenuit rex parliamentum apud Westmonasterium in quo Thomas dux Gloucestriæ, Henricus comes Derbeye, Ricardus comes Arundelliæ, Thomas comes Warwyk, et Thomas comes Notyngham exeusarunt se publice coram toto parliamento quod nunquam consenserunt cogitarunt aut imaginarunt mortem regis neque occulte neque aperte et hoc cuilibet contradicenti manu propria vellent probare et se de his defendere contra quemlibet opponentem caput habentem rege solo excepto. Cumque ad hæc nullus apparuit contradictor pro excusatis ab omnibus habebantur.

Chronicle of Jean le Bel Volume 1. The most handsome and splendid man one could see anywhere in the world was the Earl of Northampton1 and of Gloucester. There too was the Earl of Warwick2, and the Earl of Salisbury, who was marshal of the host; with him were the Earl of Suffolk, the Baron of Stafford, Sir John, Viscount of Beaumont, and many other princes and banneret barons, and many more besides whose names I do not know. Yet one must not forget Sir Reginald of Cobham3, who was then and still is held to be the most valiant man of his country. Nor should I omit Sir Walter Manny, who had performed so many deeds of arms and feats in Scotland and elsewhere that he had gained such favour with the king and with all the English, great and small, that the noble king had retained him in his most secret council and had granted and assigned him such great lands in England that he had become a banneret and maintained a greater estate than many bannerets who were there.
Le plus gent et le plus frique que on pouoit veoir ne trouver en nulle part du monde, ce fut le conte de Noireton et de Clocest; sy y estoit le conte de Warvich, le conte de Salbry, qui estoit mareschal de l'ost; et avecques luy fut le conte de Suffort, le baron de Staffort, messire Jehan, visconte de Beaumont, et pluseurs aultres princes et barons bannerès et plus que bannerès, et biacop d'aultres que je ne sçay nommer; mais on n'y doibt pas oublier messire Regnault de Cobaing, que on debvoit bien tenir pour le plus prœu de son pays adoncq, et encores fait on. Et sy n'y vueil pas oublier messire Watier de Manny, qui avoit tant fait d'armes et de proesses en Escoce et aultre part, que il avoit acquis si grand grace au roy et à tous les Anglois, grands et petis, que le noble roy l'avoit detenu de son plus secret conseil, et luy avoit donné et assigné si grande terre en Angleterre qu'il estoit devenus bannerès, et bien tenoit plus grand estat que bannerès qui là fust.
