A collage of Adhucs from a court record in 1250 Norfolk
"Adhuc" means "Still" and appears at the top of some membranes. The heading tells readers the proceedings are a continuation from the same district listed on the previous membrane. For instance, a dragon breathes fire on "Still from Grimshoe"

I can't tell if this was done because the scribe was super bored and/or enjoyed adding flourishes to headings in (mostly dry and repetitive) legal records.
