Calendars provide summaries full enough, for most purposes, to replace the original documents. These summaries are printed in chronological order and do not necessarily reflect the archival ordering of the documents (hence ‘calendar’). They are the primary finding aid for the records that they describe. This series details the records of the Dean and Chapter of Wells, including the register books of the cathedral, act books and charters, from the 14th to the 18th century.
