TheDean and Canons of Windsor are the ecclesiastical body ofSt George's Chapel atWindsor Castle.[1]

Foundation

[edit]

The college of canons was established in 1348 byletters patent ofKing Edward III. It was formally constituted on the feast ofSt Andrew the Apostle, 30 November 1352, when the statutes drawn up byWilliam Edington,bishop of Winchester, as papal delegate, were solemnly delivered to William Mugge, the warden of the college.[2]

Accepting that the process of foundation took several years to complete, the college takes the year 1348 as its formal date of foundation.

Costume

[edit]

Three ancientmonumental brasses survive depicting canons of Windsor, wearing the mantle of theOrder of the Garter, purple in colour, with a circular badge on the left shoulder, displaying:Argent, a cross gules (aSaint George's Cross):[3]

  1. c. 1370. Roger Parkers,North Stoke, Oxfordshire (half effigy with inscription; head lost).
  2. 1540.Roger Lupton, LL.D., Provost of Eton College and Canon of Windsor.Eton College Chapel (mantle worn over fur-lined cassock; no surplice).
  3. 1558. Arthur Cole, S.T.B., President of Magdalen, atMagdalen College, Oxford. Showing a very ornate mantle worn over cassock and surplice.

The long cords which fasten the mantle are well represented atNorth Stoke andMagdalen College. In the two later examples it is gathered. On the Eton brass the mantle is fastened at the neck. The lost effigy of John Robyns, d. 1558, of which the inscription remains in St George's Chapel, may have shown him wearing the mantle.[4] Brasses of canons of Windsor are found showing them vested in copes, without the Garter badge, as atThurcaston, Leicestershire. (John Mershdcn, 1425), and at Harrow (Simon Marcheford, 1442). A brass was discovered in 1890 at Bennington, nearStevenage, Hertfordshire, showing a small mutilated effigy of a priest in a cope with a round badge (possibly a rose) on the left shoulder. The cope has anorphrey. This has been supposed to represent a Canon of Windsor.[5]

It required that the first two vacant canonries should be suspended, the next filled, the next two suspended, the next filled, the next two suspended, the next filled, and the next two suspended.[6]
