This figure is the total assessed value of the benefice. Note that for a cathedral church a zero figure is given because its
assessed value is derived from a number of holdings which are listed elsewhere in the taxatio text.

This section shows the patronage status of the benefice in 1291-2, the date of the taxatio, as much as can be found in contemporary or near-contemporary sources. The line includes the type of patronage: ecclesiastical,
monastic or secular; the name of the patron; and for monastic patrons, the order of their religious house.
If the patronage is ecclesiastical or monastic, then it may be an appropriated church. This is shown by the "If Appropriated"
line below.

1 The grid reference given is for the placename. 2 The grid reference given is for Kinvaston Hall Farm. 3 The grid reference given is for Hilton Park. 4 The grid reference given is for Monmore Green. 5 The grid reference given is for Hatherton Church Farm. 6 The king was patron of this royal free chapel, his position having been re-established in the middle of the twelfth century: DentonRFC 42. He appointed the deans of the college, and the dean appointed to the prebends. See also VCHStaffs3 321-31. The Victoria History of the Counties of England: Staffordshire, ed. W.Page et al., 12 vols, 1-9, 14, 17, 20 (London, 1908-2004) vol 3 p.321-31 7 This collegiate church was assessed as a unit. Its single value comprised the values of all its parts, that is its deanship, six prebends, and a 'chantry', which are detailed in a schedule attached to PCLA1 2 (and thus in T 243, and also given here) deriving from a memoranda roll of 17 Edward III. It seems most likely that the prebends represented in origin distinct parts of the parish of Wolverhampton, but there is no clear evidence for the precise nature of the values attached to the prebends, except that Willenhall was a prebendal chapel, and its income therefore was perhaps in spiritualities from the chapel of Willenhall. For all but Wobaston a grid reference is provided to suggest a location based on the prebendal name. The collegiate church apparently had a dependent chapel at Pelsall (SK020030) where a chantry was endowed in 1311. See VCHStaffs3 325 and the references there.
