John de Grauntsete
John de Grauntsete (John of Grantchester) (c.1270-c.1350) was an English born judge in fourteenth-century Ireland. More is known about him than about many of his colleagues, from which we can form some idea of the life of an Irish judge at the time. He sat in turn in each of the Irish Courts of common law, and unusually, he is known to have appeared in Court as an advocate even after he became a judge.
==Early career==
He was a native of Grantchester in Cambridgeshire, his surname being the older form of the town's name (it appears as ''Grauntsethe'' in Domesday Book). He seems to have been in practice as a lawyer by 1300 and in 1302 was nominated by the Bishop of Ely〔Either Ralph Walpole, who died in March 1302, or his successor Robert Orford.〕 to be his attorney.〔Ball , F. Elrington ''The Judges in Ireland 1221-1921'' John Murray London 1926 Vol. 1 p.68〕
He came to Dublin in or shortly before 1308 and married Alice de Morton, daughter and co-heiress of Geoffrey de Morton, Lord Mayor of Dublin and one of its wealthiest shipowners.〔Ball p.27〕 He acquired a house abutting the city wall, close to old Dublin Bridge, now Father Mathew Bridge; he later completed two small towers, one at each end of the bridge, and began the building of the chapel. He also owned property in Castle Street and at Oxmantown. His property by the bridge included the Dublin "fish-house" for the upkeep of which he was responsible. He was given a licence to pierce the city wall to provide his house with light.
He continued to practice law and was legal adviser to the owner of Rathfarnham Castle in 1320. In 1326 he was made second Baron of the Court of Exchequer (Ireland) and the following year transferred to the Court of Common Pleas (Ireland).〔Ball p.28〕
