Description (What the record is about)
-
The series consists of 314 large deeds transferred to the Public Record Office from the Exchequer Pipe Office. Most of the instruments in the series bear marks of acknowledgement before a Master of Chancery or a Baron of the Exchequer, and those of enrolment on the close rolls or on memoranda rolls of the King's Remembrancer, on their dorse. Many of the deeds relate to grants of offices and land to and from the Crown, with deeds relating to trade, prominent councillors, and the attempted Elizabethan conquest of Ireland. Several of the deeds retain their original seals.

- This series and E 354 were created out of the collection of deeds, largely evidences of title, accumulated and kept by the Pipe Office. On the abolition of the Pipe Office in 1833 the deeds passed into the custody of the King's Remembrancer before being transferred to the Public Record Office in 1858.
