King John in 1215, in order to win the support of the citizens, conceded to the barons of London by charter, the right of annually choosing their mayor. According to the evidence of the Rolls, it is to the reign of John that the possession of a mayor in the other great towns, such as Bristol, York, Norwich, Lincoln and Winchester, is due.
