Titheable Lands in Waltham Abbey, Holyfield and Upshire, 1776

 

A transcription of an extensive survey of "titheable lands" made in 1776, which contains much the same information as the Tithe Returns themselves, but made about two generations earlier. Many comparisons can be made between this and Millennium Project 1.

Includes a map of the manor of Waltham Holy Cross spread over 8 A3 sheets, unbound so that they can be laid out on a desk.

Also included is the essay A Glimpse at Life from 18th Century sources (very useful for modern researchers), and several appendices.

The complete "Account" (comparable to the tithe 'awards') is included, with a key to the map's plot numbers.

82 A4 pages plus 8 folded A3 maps in green folder.
