The Frithstool at St. Mary’s Church, Sprotborough, would give sanctuary in the church if one sat on it. Of three extant frith stools, the one in Beverley Minster had the inscription: Haec sedes lapidea Freedstoll dicitur, i.e. Pacis Cathedra, ad quam reus fugiendo perveniens, omnimodam habet securitatem. The English translation reads: This stone seat is called the Freedstoll, i.e. the Chair of Peace, to which a criminal, arriving by flight, has complete security. Free download.
