To these types must be added the records of the local courts, now largely also in the Public Record Office, though vast numbers of court rolls and manorial documents are still in private hands, and among the archives of ecclesiastical and secular corporations.  The Selden Society has done excellent work in publishing such muniments; as in particular, MAITLAND’S Select Pleas in Manorial Courts, vol. i., Henry III. and Edward I., illustrating the social and legal life of a medieval village; MAITLAND and BAILDON’S Court Baron; HUNTER’ s Leet Jurisdiction of Norwich; C. GROSS’s Select Cases from the Coroners’ Rolls, 1265-1413.  The records of the Bishopric of Durham, the County Palatine of Chester, the Principality of Wales, and the Duchy of Lancaster are deposited in the Public Record Office, and calendars and lists scattered over the Deputy-Keeper of the Records’ Reports throw some light on their contents.  Unluckily these records of franchise are incompletely preserved and often in bad condition.  The best preserved for our period are the Durham records, described in LAPSLEY’S County Palatine of Durham, pp. 327-337 (Harvard Historical Studies); some of the most important are printed in Registrum Palatinum Dunelmense, ed.  Hardy (Rolls Series, 4 vols.), which is also an Episcopal register.  Welsh records may be illustrated by the Record of Carnarvon (Rec.  Corn., fol., 1838).  Academic records are illustrated by the Oxford Munimenta Academica (ed.  Anstey), Rolls Series.  Municipal records are very numerous and important; full particulars as to them can be found in C. Gross’s Bibliography of British Municipal History (Harvard Hist.  Studies).  Admirably edited examples of our wealth of municipal records for this period are to be found in Records of the Borough of Nottingham (ed.  W.H.  Stevenson), vol. i. (1882); Records of the Borough of Leicester (ed.  Mary Bateson), vols. i. and ii. (1899 and 1901); and Munimenta Gildhallae Londoniensis (ed.  H.T.  Riley), Rolls Series.  The Reports of the Historical Manuscripts Commission afford much information as to every type of document in private or local custody.  Ireland and Scotland have archives of their own; but there are no systematic records in the Register House at Edinburgh before the War of Independence.  Among the enterprises now abandoned of the Public Record Office were Calendars of Documents relating to Scotland and Ireland.  The Scottish series covers all this period (vols. i.-iv.), the Irish was stopped at 1307.  They are derived, by a rather arbitrary selection, from various classes of English records, but contain much valuable material.  JOSEPH STEVENSON’S Documents illustrating the History of Scotland (1286-1306) (Scot.  Rec.  Publications, 1870), and PALGRAVE’S Documents and Records illustrating the History of Scotland (Rec.  Corn., 1837), are useful for the reign of Edward I. as are for limited periods of it the Wallace Papers (Maitland Club, 1841) and Scotland in 1298 (ed.  Gough, 1888).
