| Introduction | PhD Candidate in History at Nottingham Trent University. My research focuses on the manuscript receipt book collections of aristocratic and gentry households in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, c.1727-1790. Current research interests include the ‘value’ of domestic knowledge in early modern households, female agency in the culinary and medicinal ‘secrets’ of the early modern family, as well as gender roles in the domestic sphere. Work towards my thesis has so far included the transcription of a collection of receipt book manuscripts by Henrietta Harley, Countess of Oxford (1694-1755) and the digitisation of the recipe books of Elinor Mundy and Margaret Willoughby of Aspley.
