An archaic or rare term for the front part or forefront of something.
From front + -ure (a suffix forming nouns from verbs, indicating action or result). This appears to be an obsolete or very rarely used English term that never gained standard adoption.
This is a word you might find in Middle English texts or very old documents, but it never became standard English—language is full of these failed experiments where people tried to create a word that just didn't stick around!
