Abstract
Analyses the principal document from the Norwich Chamberlains’ Account Books (1469-1490) that records expenses incurred for the entry of Elizabeth Woodville into Norwich in 1469. These financial accounts are presented in full for the first time, in the original Latin with a facing-page translation, with a detailed introductory discussion. Many skilled people were engaged in preparing, building and recovering materials used in the construction of two stations, at the Westwyck Gate and the gates of the Dominican Friary. Perhaps the most skilful of these was William Parnell from Ipswich, who operated as a 'property player' to the event.
