The Council of Redding in England in the Year 1279.

John Peckam Arch-Bishop of Canterbury having Conven'd the Bishops his Suffragans at Redding in * 1.1 the Year 1279, did there renew the Constitutions of Ottobon, and made several others about the Collations of Benefices, the Sentences of Excommunication and the Clergy who kept Concubines. There was also one about Infant-Baptism, wherein 'tis order'd, That all those who should be Born Eight Days before Easter and Whitsontide, shall be kept to be Baptiz'd Solemnly on those two Festivals.

Besides these Canons for the Clergy, which were Publish'd the Thirtieth of July, John Peckam the same Year and probably in the same Council, made other Constitutions relating to the Monks and Nuns, wherein he is very particular in what relates to the Order and Discipline which ought to be observ'd in Monasteries.
