Record title: Winchester College Bursars'
Accounts
Repository: Winchester College Archives
Shelfmark: 22159
Repository location: Winchester
The bursars' accounts were kept annually by the two bursars, one of whom was elected each year and served as the junior bursar, becoming senior bursar the following year. Their accounts included all the college finances, beginning with receipts from the rents of manors and estates owned by the college. Expenses are divided into sections: chapel, hall, kitchen, pantry, stable, and garden; stipends to chaplains, scholars, and others; external expenses and gifts (the last two the sections where payments to entertainers were normally entered). The rolls have paper wrappers, some of which contain notes made by later bursars. Unusually for this series of bursars' accounts this set of accounts runs from 25 September 1495 only to 20 June 1496, rather than the usual Michaelmas to Michaelmas.
