Rent payments 1700-1837 Barnacre-with-Bonds parish

[olduser1]

I'm familiar with Valuation Rolls in Scotland,but where do you search for Rents paid to large estates pre Victorian times?
Specifically about to commence research in the above Parish looking for rents paid for farms & property back to 1700 - 1837 if possible.
Comments & suggestions welcomed

Lancashire Archives might be the best starting point. The 1839 Tithe apportionment will give landowners at that time. The Duke of Hamilton seems to have owned quite a lot of land there at the time (since when I don’t know, but it might be possible to work backwards). Depending on what happened to documents relating to a particular estate, however, they are sometimes held with other family papers in a quite different archive elsewhere.

Thanks I'll get in touch with the Archives.

Thanks I'll get in touch with the Archives.

When I posted the link it was linking to the catalogue of the tithe, now it seems not to be. I just typed
“Barnacre tithe” into the “Advanced Search” “Any Text” search box to get that result.

Dave Thanks, just need to ID the correct plot from 805 entries.

Dave Thanks, just need to ID the correct plot from 805 entries.

May be worth trying this: If you have the surname of the individual renting land in Barnacre just add that to the search box. For example I put “Barnacre” “tithe” “Daniel” (just an individual I saw renting from the Duke of Hamilton) in the search box and it showed just the plots this person was renting, not all 805 entries.

I'll give a go later this week, thanks for your suggestions.

Lancashire Archives hold the land tax records these run from 1780 to 1832. They show the owner of the land and the person renting the land and how much tax is paid.

That's good news, I've found searching any archive is down to entering the right sequence of search words. Are these records available on line or do you need to travel view?
