Reference: Subseries within SC 13
Title: Seals removed from records of Augmentation Office, and mostly in wooden skippets of c 1800
Description:

These appear to have been taken from the Conventual Leases (E 303), that is from records of the Augmentation Office. The seals have been deliberately detached from their parent documents for convenience of filing of the latter; the stump tags remaining attached of the seals have (mostly) been annotated with an indication of date and origin, and the seals themselves placed for protection in turned wooden skippets of medieval design but Georgian manufacture, with paper labels indicating the contents of each skippet.

Date: c1200-c1547
