ABSTRACT
Anna J. Mill's valuable article on 'The Stations of the York Corpus Christi Play' uses only those lists which state more or less exactly where these stations were. However, she observes that 'others … may, with caution, be derived from the names of those who pay rent, if the location of their houses is known and is on the route indicated'. The verticals are provided by the pageant route itself. The actual route remained the same for the whole period; only the stopping-places varied in number and location. The Account Books and Rolls record receipts of money from persons paying for the pageants to be 'played before their doores'. Their fullness varies. The Rolls for 1454, 1462, and 1468 record in detail both names and sites. Between 1475 and 1528 they record names only, with a very few scattered indications of place.
