In the later 15th century Durham Cathedral Priory may have held up to 140 household members to feed and clothe, not to mention the estate which it managed. Based on a range of documentary sources from the Durham archive, this study examines the monks and monastery as consumers and aims to reassess the preconceived idea that they were 'unreflective, unresponsive, and uninnovative' in their purchasing strategies. What Miranda Threlfall-Holmes reveals is that the monastery was a most sophisticated consumer and had developed different purchasing strategies for different goods and suppliers and took account of factors such as need, choice, fashion, availability as well as events such as harvest failures, price rises and changes in industry. The wider implications of Threlfall-Holmes' findings for other late medieval institutions is considered, since Durham is unlikely to have been unique in its consumer behaviour.
