William Clapham of London was a Citizen and Grocer (d 1688), who owned Cox Key, Fresh Wharf and Gaunt's Key as well as warehouses in Thames Street. The properties were left in tail to his son William Clapham (d 1730). By 1764 William Skrine had gained the reversionary interest. Skrine may have been distantly related to the younger William Clapham through Clapham's wife, Mary Lem.

The Clapham and Skrine family papers were a gift from the British Records Association in 1968. They were catalogued in 1969 by a member of Guildhall Library staff. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.

These documents are largely deeds and papers relating to William Clapham, including title deeds of his properties Cox Key, Fresh Wharf and Gaunt's Key with warehouses in Thames Street. Also some deeds of the Skrine family's properties in Somerset and Wiltshire (Ms 14021).

Records arranged by MS number, assigned during cataloguing at the Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section.
