Question
What was the actual location where Edward II was forced to sign
the Ordinances of 1311 and who else was there?

Answer
Hello Mark. The Ordinances of 1311 were issued at a Parliament in Westminster. As it was a full Parliament most of the important landowners and nobility would have been present. The actual summons was for the "magnates, knights, burgesses and clerical proctors" to attend.

I have a good basic knowledge of British political history, but my speciality is the Kings and Queens of England and Scotland from 927 AD. Please no social history questions, it's not my strong point and I'm unlikely to answer them.
