Title: The glebe terriers of Shropshire
Description: "Glebe terriers were detailed descriptions of the economic assets of ecclesiastical livings from the 16th to the 19th century. Every parish was required to compile one at intervals. They include particulars of the parsonage house (a valuable source for venacular architecture), the incumbent's glebe land (with early field-names and sometimes information on the parish's pre-inclosure open fields and commons), his tithes and fees, and local schools and charities." -- from back cover.
