Marston's Magna Carta, also known as the Charter of Marston, was a local English charter granted by King John around 1210. It granted certain privileges to the inhabitants of Marston, a village in Berkshire, England. The charter was granted in response to complaints by the villagers about the harshness of the local sheriff and the demands of the king's officials. Marston's Magna Carta is considered an early precursor to the English Magna Carta, which was issued in 1215 and has had a significant impact on the development of constitutional law in England and beyond.
