The proceedings of the manorial court of Wakefield provide a unique insight into medieval life and commerce, the many legal disputes arising, and the mechanisms for resolving them. First published by the Yorkshire Archaeological Society between 1901 and 1945, this five-volume set contains the existing court rolls spanning the years 1274–1331.
The detailed records of the proceedings of the manorial court of Wakefield provide a unique insight into medieval life and commerce, the many legal disputes arising, and the mechanisms for resolving them. The manor court met every three weeks, as well as holding additional courts, or 'tourns', at various locations around the West Riding of Yorkshire. Recognising the historical significance of these court records, in 1901 the Yorkshire Archaeological Society began publishing them as part of its Record Series, continuing intermittently until 1945 and ultimately producing five volumes that span the years 1274–1331. The Latin text of the earliest extant court is followed by an English translation. All other rolls are given in English, and introductions and notes provide helpful commentary on the documents.
