Manor of Sarratt 27 July 1741
Copy of court roll
By Sue Flood
This extract from the court roll of the Manor of Sarratt records the admission of Henry Finch on the death of his father John. A copy was made from the roll and given to the incoming tenant as evidence of the transaction. This came to be regarded as a title deed providing the evidence of a tenant’s right to enter his holding and on what terms.
