Collection Info

As with other series shelfmarked MS. Ch. and MS. Rolls, this is an artificial collection created from a range of archival sources, and the provenance of individual items is not always known.

The collection catalogued in 1878 comprised MSS. Ch. Durham 1-4 (3-4 formerly Appendix), of unrecorded provenance. Ch. 2 was in the collection of Ralph Thoresby (for which see the collection overview for Yorkshire).

Ch. 5-22 are later accessions from a variety of sources.
