There seems to be references to L.R. in the text. It might be found in Records of the Office of the Auditors of Land Revenue. If you have access to a University library, I would suggest you might want to consult the book. https://books.google.com/books/about/Records_of_the_Office_of_the_Auditors_of.html?id=Os0qAQAAMAAJ Hope that will point you in the right direction.

Or maybe the wrong direction. If you look at the entries which are marked L.R. they all concern the Duchy of Lancaster. The Court of Augmentations, the predecessor of the Office of the Auditors of Land Revenue did not come into existence until the reign of Henry VIII. Regards, John
