It is generally accepted that Britain's formative industrial development took place on landed estates where the labour, minerals and space was available to support fledgling industry. Yet despite this consensus, surprisingly little attention has been played to the management and accountancy practices of these estates. It is the purpose of this book to fill this gap, examining the issues through the lens of estate accounts and supporting documentation.
