Deposited by Mr Dunwell, Agent for Lady Diana Miller, Lady of the Manor of Conisbrough (as daughter of the late Earl and Countess of Yarborough).

This unusually extensive series of manorial records was formerly the property of the earl of Yarborough.

The manor of Conisbrough was at one time held by the duke of Leeds, and some court rolls for the period 1340-1695 are to be found amongst the archives of the duke of Leeds deposited at the Yorkshire Archaeological Society in Leeds. For further details see: Sylvia Thomas 'Guide to the Archive Collections of the Yorkshire Archaeological Society 1931-1981' and to 'Collections Deposited with the Society' [Wakefield, 1985], page 1.

Further records relating to disputes over the provisions of the Wakefield enclosure Act: see DDYar/E/13 below [unavailable, withdrawn] are to be found amongst the records of the West Riding Solicitor in the archives of the West Riding Court of Quarter Sessions held at the Wakefield Office of the West Yorkshire Archive Service.
