The complaint of the Mayor+burgesses of Grimsby against the men of Ravenserodd, August 1290: https://archive.org/stream/cu31924084250590#page/n135/mode/2up …pic.twitter.com/Dec4eg3cz5
@caitlinrgreen Is it known where the countess's island is located? I'm assuming 3 miles to a league, and I can't find it.
@GeorgeRick1 Other sources say 1 mile from shore and 4ish from Easington, so prob Spurn area!
@caitlinrgreen Could rising sea levels have obliterated it?
@GeorgeRick1 wave driven erosion certainly might, as it did the Lincs islands, but not actual rise over that period, I suspect--too little!
@caitlinrgreen There's a place about 4 miles from Grimsby on the other side of the river named Sunk Island. Might that be a reference to it?
@GeorgeRick1 Sadly, is apparently post-medieval in date: https://archive.org/stream/losttownsofyorks00sheprich#page/44/mode/2up …pic.twitter.com/ATCnGIgnW3
