Single sheet

GB 0096 MS 880 1668 Collection (fonds) Single sheet Unknown
The Privy Council is descended from the Curia Regis, which was made up of the king's tenants in chief, household officials, and anyone else the king chose. This group performed all the functions of government. About the time of Edward I (reigned 1272-1307), the executive and advising duties of the Curia Regis came to be handled by a select group, the king's secret council, which later came to be called the Privy Council.

Given via the Historical Manuscripts Commission and the British Records Association in 1973.
