14 items

Scope and Content: Estate ledgers and volumes, other than rental ledgers (U137/RL) and cash books and related financial records (U137/CB). This series contains books of a mixed nature, covering several aspects of estate management, and books which are uncommon in the collection and cover a particular aspect of estate management. U137/EV/001 is an example of the former, an estate agent's volume, 1719- 28, containing rentals, accounts, lists of leases, and other estate information. Examples of the latter type include wages books, agent's memorandum books, a volume on lease arrangements. This important series holds records documenting many areas of estate work not covered in rentals and other records. Other items may be added to this series from boxes not yet listed. The volumes have been arranged into two sub-series:

U137/EV/A contains volumes relating to the earl of Bandon's estate (9 volumes, 1719-1888)

U137/EV/B contains volumes maintained by the Bandon Estate Office relating to several estates and to single estates other than that of the earl of Bandon (5 volumes, 1817-1904)
