	Medieval English urban history - Colchester
		Colchester's first known royal charter was received in 1189 and gave the borough the foundations of self-government.
		In Colchester's case the main rivals were the Abbot of St. John's, a powerful and wealthy ecclesiastic, and John FitzWalter lord of Lexden manor together with his steward (and tenant of Langenhoe manor) Lionel de Bradenham.
		Colchester had an added advantage of proximity to London, as well as a good connection thereto via the old Roman roads system, although this later proved disadvantageous when (in the fifteenth century) the export of products of Colchester's cloth-finishing industry fell under the influence of the Hanse merchants based at the London Steelyard.
