The book provides a detailed exploration of the evolution, significance, and regulation of markets and fairs in medieval England, delving into their socio-economic impact on society during that era. The content of the book features a variety of extracts and original documents that illuminate the customs, regulations, and practices surrounding markets and fairs from the Anglo-Saxon period through to the late medieval times. It discusses the significance of market rights granted by kings, the establishment of specific market locations, and the privileges awarded to merchants.
