1292) was an English Benedictine chronicler, a monk of St Augustine's Abbey, Canterbury.
His work was used and acknowledged by the chroniclers Thomas Elmham and William Thorne.
[2] He elsewhere stated that Sprott's work ended in 1272, a point that is unclear in surviving manuscripts (which had later additions, and some damage).
[1] John Leland mentioned a chronicle by Sprott that extended to 1272, which Casimir Oudin stated was among the manuscripts of Walter Cope.
[2] The text of Sprott's chronicle survives in two variant 13th-century manuscripts (Lambeth Palace Library MS 419, folios 111–60; and British Library Cotton MS Tiberius A.ix, folios 107–80), and in several later transcripts.
