The paper, read at the Association's July 1872 Exeter meeting, focuses on the ancient city, and on how it served as an important link in a marketing chain that connected local, regional, and overseas trade. Although small by most standards (the population stood at around 3,100 in 1377), Exeter was the largest town in south-western England and has long played a central role in the marketing hierarchy of the region.
