Excerpt from List of the Lands of Dissolved Religious Houses: Kent-Middlesex

The series of Public Record Office Lists and Indexes, originally published by Her Majesty's Stationery Office between 1892 and 1936 and now reprinted by Kraus Reprint Corporation, constitutes only a very small (though im portant) part of the means of reference to the national archives of England. Many volumes in the printed series are continued or amplified in compilations which have hitherto been available only in typed or manuscript copies on the shelves of the Record Office's search rooms. A number of these compilations have been selected for reproduction and issue by the Kraus Reprint Corpora tion in this Supplementary Series of Public Record Office Lists and Indexes.

This List of the Lands of Dissolved Religious Houses expands one category of entries in the List of Ministers' Accounts, Part II, Henry VII and Henry VIII (which is No. XXXIV in the original printed series of Lists and Indexes). In the printed list, the accounts of royal ministers for the possessions of dissolved monasteries are briefly noticed under the counties in which the monasteries severally lay. In this Supplementary List the lands named in the earliest surviving post-dissolution account for each monastery's possessions are listed in detail as they occur in the original manuscripts. There is an exhaustive index of places, in which cross-reference is used to identify obsolete forms of place-names with those on the modern map.
