Records of Fulham Manor including the papers of the clerks to the homage jury. This collection is complementary to the minute books preserved in DD/0015. All the correspondence in the papers is reflected in the minutes, and some comparable loose papers are also attached to the minutes. The papers do, however, in many instances provide greater detail, including some additional plans.

The decision to take the subject group as the basic unit, although unavoidable both because of the original order and the size of the collection, means that the list is in some ways summary. In particular:

1) The form of documents is not usually given. Most groups are composed primarily of correspondence.

2) The name of the party is only given when one, or occasionally two or three, persons or authorities are involved.

3) The party may or may not be the same person as a party named as the subject of the correspondence.
