Item Y/COU/1/1/28 - Minute book, 1581-1585

1 volume

Minute and memoranda book, covering the period February 1581 - February 1585. Entries are broadly, but not strictly, in chronological order. The volume has been conserved, and it is not clear whether the pages have all retained their original order.

Minutes and memoranda run between folios 2 and 188, after which is included an index to entries in the volume, organised chronologically by Lord Mayor of York (folios 190-200). At the end of the volume, draft copies of entries for some of the minutes can be found (folios A-U), as well as extracts from indentures relating to the Manor of Dringhouses.

Dates in this catalogue have been given in the new style. Many of the original entries use regnal dating to record the year.
