If you mean 'dividing it by RPI' (i.e. £1 in 1987 is worth 37p now, or whatever), then it depends how far you want to go back .. RPI numbers only exist back through somewhere in the 19xx's (and I only have them back to about 1980). So if you were going to stick in '1632' you'd be pretty much out of luck.
However inflation as a problem/concept didn't really get going until fairly recently, as far as I know.
Depends what you mean by fairly recently.
This century - well, really some time after the Boer War, iirc.
