Barnard's Inn was one of the Inns of Chancery, possibly originally established to train medieval Chancery Clerks. By the 15th century the Inns were taken over by students, solicitors and attorneys, functioning as preparatory schools for those wishing to be called to the Bar. Barnard's Inn was established in 1435. The Inn became defunct and the premises sold in 1892.

The extra-parochial place of Barnard's Inn was co-terminous with the Inn of Chancery of the same name (on the south side of Holborn in Farringdon Without Ward). It was constituted a civil parish in 1858.

These records were deposited in 1922 by the City of London Valuation and Rating Department. They were catalogued by a member of Guildhall Library staff in 1936. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.

Records of Barnard's Inn civil parish, comprising poor rate assessment book and overseer's book of receipts and payments.

The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section order has been retained.
