This volume traces the history of the Edinburgh Incorporation of Mary’s Chapel, which sought to control the capital’s building trades and defend their privileges. By utilising a range of previously missing charters and archival documents, the author offers a new perspective on the prestigious craft guild in its 542 years of existence.
