Griffiths Valuation Annual Revisions

Griffiths Valuation Annual Revisions


Beginning from 1864 it is possible to follow the history of a property using the annual revisions, sometimes known as the cancellation books.

Using different colours of pen amendments were made frequently to the Griffiths Valuation. It may be amendments to the names, the acreages, the type of holding or the rateable value. whatever amendment was made the colour coding allows you to identify which amendment was made on which year.

This is a great way to move back and forward in time to see inheritance of property and maybe indicate when a death or move occurred in the family.
