Clerks of the Household 1782–1815
On the abolition of the clerks of the green cloth in 1782 provision was made for two clerks of the household appointed by royal warrant and three assistant clerks of the household appointed by lord steward's warrant. These offices were replaced by the clerks to the board of green cloth in 1815. (fn. 1)
The salary of the first clerk, originally £800, was reduced to £500 in 1783; that of the second clerk, originally £400, was raised to £500 in 1812. The salaries of the assistant clerks were fixed at £210 in 1782. Clark, appointed in 1814, was designated `junior clerk' at £200 a year. (fn. 2)
