Electronic resources: Nottinghamshire Manorial Documents Register now online

Following a five-month project run by Nottinghamshire Archives, in association with the University of Nottingham's Manuscripts and Special Collections department and supported by The National Archives, the Nottinghamshire section of the Manorial Documents Register (MDR) has been made available online. 

The MDR records information on Nottinghamshire's manorial records from over 255 manors, held at 49 different locations worldwide, some in publicly accessible institutions and others still in private ownership. 

The Nottinghamshire project benefits researchers worldwide, enabling them to search for manorial records by manor, parish, type of record or by date, and to identify relevant records online for the first time for this county.
