Peter's pence A tax formerly paid annually to the papacy. First stated as compulsory in 787, it was levied in England from the 10th century at the rate of one penny per householder. It was revived by WILLIAM I as a single lump sum of £200 for the whole of England. It was abolished in England in 1534 during the Reformation.
