Abstract

Helen Nicholson uses testimonies given during the trial of the Templars in the British Isles to explore what the people of Britain and Ireland actually knew about the Holy Land during the early years of the fourteenth century. Having discussed the problems of using such testimony evidence, she shows that there was a certain level of travel from Ireland to the eastern Mediterranean, and argues that some of those who spoke against the Templars did have a personal interest in the situation in the Middle East.
