The City of London was divided into wards for the purpose of government as early as Norman times. The wards had responsibility to keep the peace, supervise trade and oversee sanitation, and each ward has the right to elect an Alderman and Commoners to sit in the Court of Common Council. Farringdon Within Ward is bounded on the north by Farringdon Without and Aldersgate Without wards, on the east by Aldersgate Ward Within, Cripplegate Ward and Bread Street Ward, south by Castle Baynard Ward and the Thames, and west by Farringdon Ward Without.

A school was established in 1705 by the inhabitants of the ward at the west end of Bull and Mouth Street, nearly facing Butcher Hall Lane. It amalgamated with Aldersgate Ward School in 1875.

The records were presented to the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library in 1931 and were subsequently catalogued by a member of Guildhall Library staff. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
