	Croyland Chronicle
		The Croyland Chronicle (or "Crowland Chronicle") is an important, if not always reliable, primary source for English medieval history, in particular the late 15th century.
		It was written at the Benedictine Abbey of Croyland, in Lincolnshire, England, off and on from 655 to 1486, and its first author was "Ingulph" or "Ingulf" of Croyland.
		The part that covers the years 1459-1486 was written in April 1486 (after Henry Tudor had become Henry VII of England) by someone who had been an insider at the court of Richard III -- someone described in it as being a doctor of canon law and member of Edward IV's council.

	Richard III Society--Croyland Chronicle
		It is a singular circumstance, that, with the exception of a transcript (1) of the sixteenth century, no ancient manuscript of Ingulph's Chronicle is known to exist.
		It was for this reason, perhaps, that so few copies of the manuscript were allowed to circulate; as the forgers must have been conscious that to the scrutinizing view of the scholar, the anachronismms and contradictions with which the Charters were filled would be too evident.
		It seems to have been the same which is mentioned by Gough, in his history of Croyland, as being in 1734 the property of Robert Hunter, lord of the manor of Croyland.

		Leaving the world in 946 he became a monk of Croyland Abbey, which had been devastated by the Danes and lay in a ruinous and destitute state.
		He endowed it with six of his own manors, and, being elected abbot, restored the house to a flourishing condition.
		The real authority for his life is Ordericus Vitalis; for no reliance can be placed on the long and fictitious account in the fourteenth-century forgery which is published under the name of Ingulf of Croyland (q.v.).

		O blessed Bertram,/ luminous with the grace of the Spirit/ thou wast radiant with virtue./ Thou didst shine from the Croyland marshes by confession and labours./ Pray for those who sing thy praises.

		It was also a kind of city of refuge; and any accused man who had made his way to the monks of Croyland was safe from his pursuers as long as he remained within the space bounded by the further shores of the four rivers.
		Many days later, while the ruins of Croyland [237] were still smoking, a half-famished child wearing a Danish tunic painfully climbed the hill from the river.
		A sad confirmation of his story came a day later, when the hermits of Ancarig with whom the monks of Croyland had taken refuge with their convent treasures, came to implore their aid in burying the dead of Peterborough.

	Abbey of Croyland
		In 1170 the greater part of the abbey and church was once more burnt down and once more rebuilt, under Abbot Edward.

		Richly endowed by royal and noble visitors to the shrine of St. Guthlac, it became one of the most opulent of East Anglian abbeys; and owning to its isolated position in the heart of the fen country, its security and peace were comparatively undisturbed during the great civil wars and other national troubles.

	Ingulph Information
		Ingulph or Ingulf died 16 November, 1109 as a Benedictine abbot of Croyland Abbey at Crowland, Lincolnshire.
		He was an Englishman who, having travelled to England on diplomatic business as secretary of William, Duke of Normandy in 1051, was made Abbot of Croyland in 1087 (Chambers and DNB say 1086) at Duke William's instigation after he had become king of England and the abbacy had fallen vacant.
		For several centuries, he was credited with the original authorship of a history of Croyland Abbey, Historia Monasterii Croylandensis, the Croyland Chronicle, a manuscript which has since been shown to have been fabricated well after his time, probably in the 13th or 14th century.
