The significance of Domesday Book was perceived at an early stage by scholars such as Selden who printed extracts at the end of his edition of Eadmer in 1623. Domesday Book itself was held under lock and key and could only be consulted for a fee with an additional charge of fourpence for each line transcribed. Without a complete printed edition scholar's regard for Domesday was combined with an ignorance of its general contents until 1783 when this edition was printed at the behest of a Royal Comission. It was printed in record type designed for the occasion by J. Nicholls and cut by J. Jackson former apprentice of William Caslon the elder and later destroyed in the Westminster fire of 1834. Douglas in his work English Scholars 1660-1730 expresses the view that Farley's achievement has been 'shamefully neglected' and that 'he produced one of the most accurate and reliable transcripts in the history of English scholarship'. Title-pages to theses volumes were supplied by the Record Commission in 1816 and two subsequent volumes comprising additions and index were provided in 1811 and 1816.
