I want to know the answer to the following question:
Southampton's history of administrative independence dates back to the reign of which king?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Southampton as a Port and city has had a long history of administrative independence of the surrounding County; as far back as the reign of King John the town and its port were removed from the writ of the King's Sheriff in Hampshire and the rights of custom and toll were granted by the King to the burgesses of Southampton over the port of Southampton and the Port of Portsmouth; this tax farm was granted for an annual fee of £200 in the charter dated at Orival on 29 June 1199.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
