Scope and content

Minute and memoranda book, covering the period February 1693 - July 1706. Entries are in chronological order, however an undated sheet of rough notes is included at the start of the volume, and copies of two documents are included out of order at the end of the volume. These two document are a copy of Henry Thompson's Will relating to the Hospital in Castlegate, and a copy of the Lord Treasurer's orders relating to the distribution of Monday. A subject index is included at the back of the volume, organised alphabetically.

Minutes 1693 - 1700 appear to be copies of those found in Y/COU/1/1/39. The entries in this volume include edits, crossings out, and rough text, and it is possible that the minutes in the first half of the volume were originally kept as draft minutes or first copy minutes. The minutes were possibly originally kept with other draft minutes (found in series Y/COU/1/3), for which there are no minutes 1693-1710.

Dates in this catalogue have been given in the new style.
