This charity is an ancient one created by Letter Patent of Queen Elizabeth under the Great Seal dated 3rd February 1585 whereby her Majesty gave certain lands and properties to the Mayor, Governor and Burgesses of Beverley in trust for charitable purposes for the benefit of St Mary's Church, Beverley.
By a Chancery Decree of King Charles dated 27th March 1634 (to redress mismanagement and breaches of trust by the said Mayor, Governors and Burgesses of Beverley) it was decreed and ordered that the churchwardens of St Mary's Beverley and their successors be appointed Trustees of the charity in place of the said Mayor, Governor and Burgesses of Beverley and that such churchwardens be put in possession of the trust property then subsisting under the said Letter Patents of Queen Elizabeth.
