Title deeds of properties in the town and parish of Oswestry, 1397-1838. A number of properties in and around the town were owned by Richard Dryhurst and his son, Edward, prior to their purchase by William Owen in 1636-1639. Other premises were purchased by William Owen, 1660-1661, Sir Robert Owen, 1688-1689, and William Ormsby-Gore, 1835-1838. Detailed boundary clauses in many of the deeds provide useful information about the urban development of Oswestry from the late Mediaeval period onwards.
