The Stewards' books contain weekly accounts for members of College. Each volume contains a list of members of the College in order of seniority - Master and Fellows, Fellow Commoners, scholars, and sizars. Next to each name is the amount owed.

At various dates different payments are included. In the College Order Book [MCGB/4/2/1] it states that the items of catechist, utensils, cook, candles and lamps, and scavenger which had been omitted since 1783 should again be included in the Steward's Book.
