These court rolls tell me what medieval communities considered a crime. We see instances of individuals being fined for dumping dung heaps, blocking gutters, selling unclean meat, and being irresponsible with their fires.

My research is on waste management and sanitation in late medieval English towns, focusing on the responsibilities, expectations, and levels of accountability for town officials!
