Vellum Lease document measuring about 9 x 28", fine condition for age with some folds - RALPH HAMOND and THOMAS BUTTERFIELD both of WEST SCRAFTON, Coverdale in North Yorkshire. Dated only in words as far as I can see but am no expert in these early deeds - appears to read 'in the twenty sevone year of Charles second' which would make it 1687 and James II ! It is certainly late 17th c from the style of writing, small wax seal still attached at base where signed by Ralph Hamond, a bit grubby on the back. The reign of Charles II was dated from the year Charles I was executed - 1649. Thus this document is dated 1676.
