Abstract: Compiled by wealthy families or institutions, a cartulary is a collection of deeds, charters and other legal documents (either original or transcripts) that document entitlement to land and property. This article concentrates on the manuscript folios pertinent to the manor of Ashby Folville in Leicestershire contained within the Woodford cartulary held in the British Library (Cotton, Claudius, A. 13). Whilst Nichols, Copinger et al. provide certain extracts within their respective publications, they are limited to (un-expanded) transcripts (mostly of the Medieval English text) with little or no translations. This article provides transcripts of the complete text (fully expanded), along with translations (from Latin and Norman French).
