Grand Jury presentment books
The Grand Jury presentment books include information on public utilities within the county, including jails and bridewells, courthouses and sessions houses, piers and harbours and the county infirmary.
The high sheriffs are noted, as well as baronial cess payers, and the county surveyor’s report was presented to the Grand Jury.
Presentments, the grant of funding for the construction or repair of
roads and other public infrastructure, are arranged by barony with the
names of the local contractors recorded.
