Estate Papers of the Pierrepont Family, Earls Manvers, of Thoresby Hall, Nottinghamshire, 1645-1964, in the Manvers Collection

These papers form part of the larger Manvers Collection, and were generated in the course of the management of the family's estate business. For details about the Pierrepont family and their estates, see the collection-level description for Manvers. In subject matter and date, they complement other groups of papers in the Manvers Collection. There are many areas of overlap between these groups, which are catalogued separately because of the date and manner of their transfer to the University.

Material has been split into four sections: accounts and estate papers from the London solicitors, and estate papers and surveys from the Thoresby Estate office. These sections are subdivided by county and estate, and documents are listed chronologically therein.

Accessible to all readers.
