This book was released on 1970-10-31 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is centred on the Cornish manorial estates of the Duchy of Cornwall in the later Middle Ages, and has been compiled from a very full and hitherto neglected series of records, the completeness of which is perhaps unique for a lay estate. Most aspects of the history of the estates have been recorded and those which differed from other regions of England have been stressed. In order to place the Duchy estates within their regional context Dr Hatcher has studied a wide range of documents and produced a mass of new evidence concerning tin-mining, fishing, trade, towns and local industry in Cornwall and Devon. He shows, for example, that agricultural prosperity in later medieval Cornwall followed an exceptional course, and was determined by a series of interconnected changes within the regional economy, with a much less direct and immediate causal link than is commonly assumed between declining population after 1349 and agricultural recession. The intimate connexions between agriculture. and industry and commerce are additionally emphasized by the manifold business interests of leading Duchy tenants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prince Charles once referred to Dr John Kirkhope, one of the co-authors of this book, as 'some kind of nutter' because he had the temerity to investigate the Duchy of Cornwall. Clearly he touched a nerve as his investigations attempted answer some basic questions about this curious entity. What exactly is the Duchy? Where did it originate and is it really the private property of the Prince of Wals? Prince Charles also applied the same appellation to Lord Berkeley, both a hereditary and a life peer, who went as far as introducing a private member's bill into the House of Lords, one that would have required the Duchy to pay tax at the same level as private companies in the UK. Far from being an innocuous and consumer-friendly organisation from the land of clotted cream, pasties and wreckers, the evidence suggests the Duchy of Cornwall is secretive, unaccountable, aloof and even somewhat sinister. What's clear is that it is not subject to the various laws and criminal sanctions - should they act in breach of the law - that apply to the rest of the country and its citizens. Published with the assistance of Republic, this book challenges long-established assumptions about the Duchy, and whether it really is a private estate that should be in the hands of the heir to the throne. "A vital exploration of a secretive and feudal estate, one that raises many uncomfortable questions for the royals and their supporters." REPUBLIC "I am not a historian but I do take some satisfaction in the fact the Duchy of Cornwall has recently, very probably, been subject to more public scrutiny than at any time in its history." JOHN KIRKHOPE "No individual, irrespective of his or her status, or organisation, no matter what its purpose, make up or history, has any right to claim exemptions from, or simply ignore, the rules and laws that govern every other individual and organisation in Britain. And it is frankly disgraceful that the principle of equality before the law should be so blatantly ignored by the Duchy." PETER STUART SMITH

This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Duchy of Cornwall (the Duchy) delivered a good financial performance in 2012-13, increasing its total income and also its net revenue after taking account of costs. However, the Treasury is not doing enough to scrutinise the Duchy's financial strategy or transactions-it does not independently verify information offered by the Duchy, and details of its approvals for the Duchy's land transactions over £500,000 are not published. The Duchy has a Crown Exemption from tax, but there is no clear understanding of any consequences for its competitors, which are subject to corporation and capital gains tax. The transparency of The Prince of Wales's tax payments is limited by reporting only a combined amount for income tax and VAT. The Duchy's charter rules that each future Duke of Cornwall will be the eldest son and heir of the Monarch, which is out of line with the Succession to the Crown Act 2013.
