Somewhat bizarrely, the Court Order microfilm in the WYAS is in the East Sussex Record Office (found through searching for "Hipperholme" in familysearch's excellent Full-Text Search experiment).

1704
.
The Order Book is indeed at WYAS, despite FamilySearch labelling it incorrectly as being at East Sussex Record Office. Here it is on Ancestry, under Wakefield Orders ...
