| | Medieval English urban history - Glossary |
| | Many historians have considered medieval borough governments to be oligarchies, particularly towards the end of the Middle Ages, when they were becoming the "closed corporations" of the Tudor period. | | | And in some towns, such as Lynn, perhaps inspired by London's example, mayors were created to lead the community in pressuring borough lords to cede power, particularly where bailiffs (controllers of local courts) remained appointees of the lords. | | | At Lynn the poorest townsmen were clearly described as non-burgesses, "burgesses" evidently being equated with those residents who had become freemen; this appears also the case in Ipswich. |
