Siarter Ystrad Marchell rhif 82 / Ystrad Marchell charter no. 82
Confirmation of the land of Bahcwilim which was sold by Ralph de Lahee to Ieuaf ap Gruffudd ab Iorwerth and which Ieuaf's maternal uncle, Madog ab Iorwerth and his son, and the sons of Ieuaf have sold to the abbey.
Ralph de Lahee son of William Ketel has granted and by this his present charter confirmed to God and the church of the Blessed Mary of Stratmarchell and to the abbot and monks of the Cistercian Order who serve God for ever there and to their successors, for the salvation of his soul and those of his parents and successors, the whole land called Bahcwilim, with all its bounds and appurtenances, in wood and plain, in waters and meadows, which he, because of his need, sold to Ieuahf son of Grifud son of Ioruerht and to his heirs in everlasting possession, and which Madoc son of Iorerht, his maternal uncle, and his three sons, namely, Ioruerht, Grifud, Maredud and Einion (Anianus) son of Grifud, and his nephews, namely, the two sons of the said Ieuahf, by his (i.e. Ralph's) voluntary licance, consent and desire, had sold to the same abbot and monks of Stratmarchell, to be had, held and possessed by them and their successors, freely, quietly and honourably for ever, without any claim, molestation, impediment, exaction, secular custom or annoyance on his part or on that of his heirs, as the said men have ever had the same land more completely and more freely from him. So that neither he nor his heirs will have or will be able to have any counter-claim or claim or exaction concerning the aforesaid land against the afore-mentioned abbot or monks or their successors, he gives it, promises it to them peacefully and quietly, and protects it, if two pairs of spurs are kept for him and his heirs annually on the feast of Petrus ad Vincula (1 August) by the aforesaid abbot and monks instead of all feudal service, exaction and demand. But in return for this concession and voluntary licence, the oft-mentioned abbot and monks on their part have given him six shillings and eight pence and the other afore-named men on their part have given him six shillings and eight pence. So that this gift of his might be ratified and firm for ever, he has strengthened and confirmed it in the year of grace 1234 both with the impression of his seal and the attestation of good men.
