Wilton Beacon Lay Subsidy for 1629
The lay subsidy was a tax on moveables/goods ('bonis') and income from land ('terris'). Individuals were assessed on one or the other which would produce the best revenue. They were assesed on their whole estate but only paid in their place of residence. The rate was 2s 8d.per pound on moveables and 4s per pound for land. The thresholds for liability were £3 for moveable goods and 20s per annum for land.
