Folios 136r–141r contain documents relating to property in Gutter Lane. The red-ink heading on f. 136r reads “Goturlane by Hillys”, and thereafter the verso pages have the heading “Goter” and the recto pages “lane”.

A different hand has taken over here. One must note that not a single one of these documents is accompanied by a note of the date of its enrolment. One also notes that the sequence in which documents are presented is in reverse order to that of the preceding sections: here the most recent document is presented first and the scribe has then worked backwards from that (although not all is in strict chronological order).
