Published between 1909 and 1955, this ten-volume collection
contains deeds relating to all of Yorkshire, from the twelfth to
the seventeenth century. The deeds are of local historical
interest, and provide topographical, philological and genealogical
information, as well as insights into daily life. The majority of
the records here are presented as abstracts, while documents in the
vernacular that are of greater interest or importance are printed
in full. Where possible, the documents are dated. Thorough
background information and discussion of the deeds is included, as
are notable physical descriptions, in particular of the seals. Each
volume concludes with an index of people and places. Published in
1932, Volume 7 was edited by Charles Travis Clay (1885-1978). This
volume contains documents from Lord Allendale's collection relating
to Birstall and the Popeley estates, and over 150 items from
Westminster Abbey's collection. Several facsimile plates with full
transcriptions are included in the appendix.
