Following the expulsion of Jews from England by Edward I through the Edict of Expulsion in 1290, the Master of the Rolls became warden and the chapel became known as the Chapel of the Master of the Rolls, or Rolls Chapel. In 1377, Edward III broke up the Jewish almshouse, consequently annexing the House as well as the Chapel to the newly instituted office of "Custos Rotulorum", or Keeper of the Rolls. The office is used to store the rolls and records of the Court of Chancery.
