Rolls of Parliament

Rolls of Parliament

The Rolls of Parliament were the official records of the English Parliament. They recorded meetings of Parliament, in the period 1272-1503.

They were first published in the eighteenth century, as "Rotuli Parliamentorum; ut et Petitiones, et Placita in Parliamento" (London, 1767-77), general editor John Strachey. A modern CD-ROM edition has been supported by the Leverhulme Trust, as "The Parliament Rolls of Medieval England".
