1 ene 1579 año - bacon

Descripción:

A rare term which occurs in wood management contexts but has no obvious meaning. 1419 <i>In cariagio iiij bacons quercuum fabricæ datæ per Archiepiscopum a Cawod usque Ebor. per navem, 10s</i> (SS35/41). It has been suggested that it might be for ‘baton’, in the sense ‘battens’ or squared pieces of oak timber, but that is unlikely since the spelling is ‘bakon’ later in the York accounts (Corr.). In Honley there was <i>the Close called the Bacon Royde</i>, first noted in 1579 (FAClxiij), which may have the same origin.
