- Abstract :
- A series of warrants issued during the reign of Charles I for the supply of materials and equipment to the royal stables provides evidence to enhance the limited picture of equestrian practice that can be compiled from archaeological remains of this period. In addition to harness and other horsegear, the warrants provide information on the fitting-out of carriages and litters. Ancillary equipment for the stables is detailed, as well as liveries for the stable staff. Contemporary and later literary sources are used to set this evidence in context. ;
