The site numbers, allocated by the Chapter clerk in the 18th cent., if not earlier, remained the same throughout, but the names of some properties were changed frequently, especially when a property was subdivided; the names here are taken from these documents or from the rentals in Cap/I/26.

Cap/I/28/1-18 Rectories, i.e. great tithes.
