1349 Waltham St. Lawrence, Berkshire: Richard Berry (atte Bury) paid 4/- for the surrender of shilling of purpresture in Walth'm previous held by his father John atte Crouch'. I assume being a younger son he adopted the name of where he lived.
Purpresture - secondary quality land not subject to the obligations placed on bondland, and which therefore could be exchanged more freely.
