Chief Bailiff of Hereford
text:
The chief bailiff of Hereford was the most senior secular magistrate in the city of Hereford, England, elected by the citizens of the city annually. The role was equivalent to that of a mayor, and was superseded by that title by letters patent issued by Richard II, King of England, on 15 November, 1383. One of the King's knights, Sir John Burley, had petitioned him for this change. There were typically also two under-bailiffs.
