- Description
-
- The purpose of this manuscript was to describe Christ Church’s landed estates in order to prove ownership after the turmoil of the English Civil War and Commonwealth confused land boundaries and rights. Each property is described, often with an account of its pre-Christ Church history, and with details of the rent due and any other obligations. The Book is, in effect, Christ Church’s Domesday Book and is usually the first port-of-call for any research involving property.
