grant of the town to See also:Richard de Redvers, See also:earl of See also:Devon, in the reign of Henry I. No See also:charter has been found, but a See also:judgment given under a See also:writ of quo warranto in 1578 confirms to the burgesses freedom from See also:toll, passage and pontage, the tolls and stallage of the See also:quay and the right to hold two fairs—privileges which they claimed under charters of See also:Baldwin de Redvers and See also:Isabel de Fortibus, countess of See also:Albemarle, in the 13th See also:century, and See also:Edward See also:Courtenay, earl of Devon, in 1405. The town was governed by the mayor and burgesses until the See also:corporation was reformed in 1835. A writ for the See also:election of a member to See also:parliament was issued in the reign of Edward III., but no return was made. From 1585 two members were regularly returned; the number was reduced to one in 1867, and in 1885 the See also:representation was merged in that of the See also:county. Fairs on the 13th and 14th of May and the 2nd and 3rd of See also:October, dating from the 13th century, are still held. The Saturday See also:market probably dates from the same century. Lymington was made a See also:port in the reign of Henry I., and its large See also:shipping trade led to frequent disputes with See also:Southampton as to the levying of duties. The See also:case was tried in 1329 and decided against Lymington, but in 1750 the judgment was _reversed, and since then the See also:petty customs have been regularly paid. From an See also:early date and for many centuries See also:salt was the See also:staple manufacture of Lymington. The rise of the See also:mineral salt-See also:works of See also:Cheshire led to its decline in the 18th century, and later the renewed importance of Southampton completed its decay.
