London, Public Record Office LR 2/261

A single leaf, perhaps a segment from a parchment roll, used as the cover or wrapper of an early 15th century Rental of Thurgarton Priory. Two voices of a presumably three-voice motet survive both on the recto and verso, however the motet on the verso has been erased.
