The household diet account of Henry Langley, esquire, of Rickling Hall, Essex (theNational Archives, Public Record Office, E101/516/9) reveals fish consumptions of the gentry’s household. The household of Rickling Hall, the inland of Essex, bought mussels and oysters at Bishop’s Stortford or Saffron Walden using Newport ferry ship. Also theybought white and smoked herrings, stockfish, whiting, red and white cod and codling, salmon, sole, plaice, flounder, mackerel, sprat, eel, conger, pike etc. The account (f.6v, ll.7-17) reported that partridges and quails were specially served from household stockswhen Henry Bourchier, first earl of Essex (c.1408-1483) visited the household of Henryand Katherine Langley at Rickling Hall during 22-24^th September in 1473. Katherine’sfather was Thomas Urswick, chief baron of the Exchequer (1472-9) under the chancellor,earl of Essex. During the summer, the earl was busy leading a force against the earl of Oxford who hovered about the coast of England (E.F.Jacob, The Fifteenth Century 1399-1485, Oxford, 1961, p.571). Perhaps he dropped in Rickling Hall on his way to the attend Parliament summoned at London in October.
