Thematic codes

The bulk of the text coding relates to words, phrases, or delimited parts of an entry. For some purposes, however, entries have been coded for their subject content. The entries and their codes are recorded in the table Codes.

The categories are:

• codes for legal matters

• codes for tenures

• codes for manorial changes

• codes for changes in taxation

• codes for miscellaneous items of unusual interest

For the use of codes in searching the text, see properties and property searching.
