According to the colophon the manuscript was written by monk Gregorius in 1337.[6] It was bought by John Jackson on Conant in Fleet Street, in 1777, for five guineas.[5]

It was added to the list of New Testament manuscript by Scrivener (573) and Gregory (686).[5]

Actually the manuscript is housed at the British Library (Add. 5468), in London.[3][4]
