The Ordinal and Customary of Barking Abbey, one of a number of its liturgical manuscripts which survive, was written on the instructions of Sibille Fenton, who was abbess from 1394 to 1419, and the manuscript was presented to theabbey in 1404; its liturgical usages deal mainly with the functioning of the choir.
