Note. – The earliest register of Guiting is a parchment book of 69 leaves bound in a flexible binding, but many of the binding stitches have given and most of the pages are loose, otherwise it is in very fair condition. It is a narrow book about 12 by 6 inches. It will be noticed that there are several gaps.

The 2nd Volume is an ordinary official book of paper.

The Marriages have been extracted by permission of the Rev. Dr. Green, Vicar, and the Churchwardens, by the Rev. J. H. Bloom, and are printed under his supervision.
