- Importations of French Wines in Foreign Ships into the Isle of Man (1562)
- Description
- Extract from the Statutes of the Realm (5 Elizabeth I, 1562) permitting foreign-born merchants to import French wines into Manx ports in foreign-owned vessels, limited to 100 tonnes per year. This establishes early modern trade privileges and Manx commercial autonomy, relevant to understanding pre-Revestment trade frameworks and the Isle's special trading status.
