 Medieval English urban history - Glossary
It is not clear how early there were dedicated financial officers in borough administration (the absence of mention in the Ipswich proceedings of 1200 is notable), but merchant gilds appear to have had them from the beginning.
What was important about the latter to boroughs, at the time when they were securing their first grants of self-government, was that the holders of burgage tenements owed suit to the borough court and were (at first) an important source of revenue that was put towards payment of the fee farm.
Boroughs later mimicked this, introducing officers to take charge of collecting revenues and paying expenses in part to relieve executive officers of some of their work but perhaps more to place a check on possible embezzlement by those officers.

 Medieval English urban history - Ipswich - Map
The fact that provincial chapters were often held at Ipswich in the 14th century indicates the friary must have had the capacity to accommodate a large number of guests and, indeed, the central structure shown on Ogilby's map (1674) confirms this, although the church was rebuilt in the third quarter of the 15th century.
What wall-building there was may have focused on areas where the ditches were weakest and may never have proceeded to creation of a continuous line; the eastern and western sides of the borough clearly had walls, but it is less certain that the northern perimeter did.
Access into the town via the bridge was protected by some kind of barrier by the 15th century, for an ordinance of 1477 placed the keys to the bridge in the custody of the bailiffs.
