Excerpt from Documents Relating to the Foundation and Antiquities of the Collegiate Church of Middleham, in the County of York: With an Historical Introduction, and Incidental Notices of the Castle, Town, and Neighbourhood
Amongst the mass of materials which the Editor has searched for these ends, it is possible some few facts may have escaped his notice, but he can confidently assert that not one statement has been put forward which does not rest on sufficient authority; and, however others may differ from him in opinion on the inferences to be drawn, the data upon which those conclusions rest must remain uni'mpeached; and perhaps, when, in a few short years at most, he shall sleep with those who have preceded him as ministers in its collegiate church, this little volume may form the basis of some more interesting and perfect history of a place, of which a distinguished and attractive writer of the present day says, middlehan - not Windsor, nor Shene, nor Westminster, nor the Tower - seemed the Court of England?
