Uniformly bound, outsize volumes, containing dates of grants of leases, terms of leases, names of lessees and of lives of lease, annual rent, amount of fines and heriots, descriptions of the premises and details of subsequent licences granted to assign or to sub-let which were endorsed on the leases. All the volumes are indexed by assignees and lessees. Up to 1871 three copies of the register was made: one for the Badminton estate office, one for the co. Glam. estate office in Swansea, and one for the Prudential Assurance Co. Ltd, though for the years 1871-1889 only the Prudential Assurance co.'s copy has survived. From 1871 the co. Glam. estate office's copy was dispensed with.
