Gateley and Brisley, 1524 - 1936
Scope and Contents
The estate papers of the College are the largest collection within the archive, and are kept in their original pyxides in the Muniment Room. The Muniments relate to the College's Manors, Ecclesiastical livings, and Estates bought or gifted over the centuries. They were first catalogued in the 18th century by Adam Wall, a Fellow of the College, and this catalogue is substantially the same, although it has been added to in the 20th century and typed up in 2020.
The fullest catalogue is available at -https://www.christs.cam.ac.uk/sites/default/files/inline-files/Muniments_Inventory_List_Typed_March2021.pdf .
The item level entries will be added to ArchivesSpace in due course, but this initial outline list of estates for which the College holds material is an interim measure.
