1 gen 1661 anni - housewright

Descrizione:

A carpenter who built houses; accustomed to working great timber. Examples of the occupation date from 1549 (OED) and in Yorkshire they occur regularly from soon afterwards, many of them in Hull: 1557 <i>Edward Robinson, housewright, </i>Hull (YRS14/133); 1573 <i>John Anderson, le housewrighte</i>, Hull (ERAS24/62); 1590 <i>Rauphe Ellenor, house wright</i>, Hull (YRS22/40). Several West Riding examples have been noted in or near Emley and that may reflect the importance of Emley Park as a source of timber: 1601 <i>Briceus Archer nuper de Whitecrosse … housewright</i>, Emley (YRS3/216); 1639 <i>Thomas Slacke, houswright</i>, Cumberworth (YRS54/170). Less common is the term ‘house carpenter’: 1661 <i>John Nuttey, house carpenter</i>, Selby (YRS47/123). The trade of <i>Housewryght </i>was listed in Beverley in 1578 (YRS84/19).
