Allerton Mauleverer

The manor of Allerton Mauleverer in Yorkshire was granted to King's College not long after the Foundation by Henry VI, who allowed King's College to ignore the effects of the Resumption (6 Nov 1449) on their grant of reversions by the prior of Allerton Mauleverer after Robert Osbern's death (31 Jul 1441) thereby allowing the College to retain any profits accrued in the intervening period. The College later fell into dispute with local landowner Thomas Mauleverer over his rival claim to the land, and eventually sold the manor to him in 1544, using the money to purchase Barton in Cambridgeshire.

A very special ceremony today, where over half of the graduands were receiving their MBA degrees (so many 'green hoods' on display!) and the lining up took place in a very sunny Webb’s Court. See them all leave College via the King’s Lane Gate behind the Deputy Head Porter and the Praelector. Congratulations to all! Enjoy the rest of your big day and share some of your photos with communications@kings.cam.ac.uk or tag King’s in your posts. @cambridgeuniversity @cambridgejudge #cambridgegraduation
