       Dukesfd. 11 Jany: 1776

Mr. R. Morrow Blaydon



Dr Sr.

	I cannot tell what course we can now take to find the Lead wanting, the calling of it has made no discovery as yet.   I have examined the Stock wth. the Smelting & Delivery & find them to agree exactly.   can you have made any mistake in placing the Dukesfd. Lead & Rookhope Mill’s Lead?  as that Mills Ld. has been led I suppose by several that let Dukesfd. and there’s a part of that Lead not got of[f] the Roads yet & if you have not Weigd. All that’s come to hand would hope you’ll find it there, for I despair now of our finding it upon the Roads & am yrs. &c. IH.Jr.

A two year community project, it was led by the Friends of the North Pennines in partnership with Hexhamshire and Slaley Parish Councils and the active support of Allendale Estates. It was funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and the generous support of other sponsors. Friends of the North Pennines: Charity No:1137467
