Recites Bill of Complaint of Thomas Parrot the elder of Luton, Beds, father of Robert Parrott late of Luton decd; and Thomas Parrott son and heir of the said Robert Parrott, executors of the said Robert Parrott:

Robert the late Abbot of the Monastery of Saint Albon, Herts was seised in right of the Monastery of the tithes of corn and grain from Luton and from Challey, Beds, known as the Luton tithes, and also of the tithes of corn and grain from the lands of Newmylend, Westhyde and Esthyde in the parish of Luton, and of a tenement and barn in Newmylende.

On 31 Jan 26 HenVIII the Abbott leased the above to the John Tymmes of Luton for 31 years from the Feast of the Nativity of St John the Baptist 1549 for £43 per annum, with a clause for re entry for non payment. On 4 Feb 26 HenVIII John Tymmes demised the lease of the tithes of Newmylende, Westhyde & Esthyde, and the tenement in Newmylende for £20 per annum to Thomas Dermer of Luton, who later in 1549 assigned all his interest to Mychaell Thrale, the deft.

On 30 October 29(sic) HenVIII, John Tymmes sold his interest in the original lease to Robert Parrott, who entered the same on the Feast of the Nativity of St John the Baptist 1549, and enjoyed the same for the remainder of his life which was about 6 years or more, and died in January, 2 & 3 Phillip & Mary.

In his will, Robert Parrott gave the remainder of the term of the said lease to the plaintiff Thomas Parrott (the father) if he should live so long, and if he should die, then to Thomas Parrott (the son) The complainants then claim that Mychaell Thrale has not been paying the £20 due from his share of the original lease, either to Robert Parrott, or to the Officers of the Crown.

It was also claimed that in order to avoid the enforcement of the clause of re entry in the original lease for non payment, Robert Parrott was forced to pay the portion of rent which the defendant should have paid (and which was now due to the crown since the dissolution of the Monastery).


States that deft has made answer, complts have replied, and deft has rejoined.


The court recognised that the deft had only paid his rent for the first 3 years of the 8 which have now passed, and that Robert Parrott had paid the defts portion of the rent for 5 years, in order to avoid forfeiture of the lease.

And as the deft has shown no good cause for his defence, it was decreed that the deft should pay £95 to the complts at the rate of £20 per year to discharge the arrears of rent. It was further decreed that from henceforth each party should be separately responsible for the payment of their own portion of the rent directly to the crown.
