Andrew c 1332 William extended the church, in part with money from a successful silver mine nearby . However the success of the mine came to the attention of Edward I who annexed it for the Crown, ordering the Ferrers send the silver to London.His grandparents had rebuilt the church c 1243(Dr. Oliver says, in Monasticon Dioecesis Exoniensis, p. 289:- "Sir William de Ferrariis having rebuilt the parish church was desirous of making it collegiate. For this purpose he assigned a sufficient endowment for an arch-priest, and four other clergymen in priest's orders who were to live in common under the same roof. Provision was also made for an assistant deacon, a sub-deacon or at least a clerk. The community were to perform the daily and nightly office (at the 5 altars) in the church and to offer up perpetual prayers for the prosperity of the founder and his lady, Matilda, during their lives, and for their souls after their death, as also for the souls of (his parents) Reginald de Ferrers and Margery / Margaret , and the souls of (wife Matilda's parents) )Sir Roger de Carminow, Knt., and his lady Joan; and the bishops of Exeter were to be remembered, both living and dead. Bishop Grandisson and the Dean and Chapter of his cathedral approved and confirmed this foundation in 1333-4, but secured the yearly payment therefrom of 20s. for the chorister boys of the cathedral. The founder did not long survive his charitable work, for we find in Bishop Grandisson's Register, Vol. 2, folio 219, that his relict and executrix Matilda obtained from the Bishop, on December 15th, 1338, an acknowledgement of having well and faithfully administered to her late husband's property, and that only the sum of £20 in arrear ad comletionem cantarie de Biry.")The presbytery was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1533, but even today the rector of Bere Ferrers bears the title of Arch Priest.Picture with thanks - Copyright Tim britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101163103-church-of-st-andre... |
