Records of the Baron Court of Stichill, 1655-1807

This is a valuable collection of records from the Baron Court of Stichill, a rural district in the Scottish Borders, covering the period from 1655 to 1807. It provides a fascinating insight into the workings of a local court during a period of profound social and political change, and sheds light on a range of topics, from land tenure to criminal justice. The records are presented with an introduction and notes by the historian George Gunn, who has made a lifetime study of the Stichill court. This new edition will be of interest to historians of Scotland, local historians, and genealogists.
