This last name is more probably to be read as Turg', for in
the Treasurers' Accounts F.2 the name is written Turgisium, and at the
end of the Assisa itself under Treasurers' Accounts occurs:—
Contra dominum Th. Carpentarium

In the Bartoner's Roll for 1317/18 (vi. ii.) occurs an
early reference to the Cathedral glazier:—

A further source of details of building expenditure is the
Day-Book of Priors Richard Oxenden and Robert Hathbrand for the years
1331-43 (D.E.3 in wooden box marked CCC. INDEX vol. 4).
