Indulgences were a vital element in late medieval English religion, but evidence of their attractiveness is limited. Material from the sacrists' rolls of Norwich cathedral priory offers information to cast light on their local appeal, changing over time yet open to manipulation and exploitation. Records of offerings at shrines and images within the cathedral also provide comparative figures to set the scale of indulgence receipts in perspective
