THE CHARTULARY OF DARLEY ABBEY. 



The Cottonian manuscript volume lettered Titus C ix. opens 

 with a short fifteenth century ehartulary of Evesham Abbey 

 which covers thirty-nine folios. From folios 40 to 166, that 

 is to the end of the volume, is a ehartulary of Darley Abbey 

 of about the beginning of the reign of Edward I. It is beauti- 

 fully written, with rubricated headings, and is for the most 

 part as clean as when it left the scribe's hands. The first new 

 folios are somewhat confused by careless binding, but it is 

 all regular from fo. 50. There are several interpolations in 

 later hands. For convenience of reference, the ehartulary is 

 divided into various sections, the folios of each section being 

 headed by initial red letters, which run from A to P; this is 

 an original arrangement. 



The following pages give transcripts of the rubricated 

 headings throughout the ehartulary. Where there are brackets, 

 these headings are missing, and the words supplied are a 

 brief summary of such entries.
