 Florilegium urbanum - Salisbury / Northampton guildhalls
The administration of justice at New Salisbury was in the hands of the Bishop, and consequently it was his court that convened in a guildhall in the south-east corner of the marketplace; he also later had a prison there.
The bishop conceded a power-sharing state of affairs, through an agreement with the citizens in 1306, giving official recognition to guild and mayor; the bishop retained sole jurisdiction over judicial administration, but the presence of the mayor was required for judgements to be passed.
The Bishop's Guildhall in Salisbury was probably built in the early fourteenth century.
