Banktop Barnsley Yorkshire



Sir

      I have received yours of the 5th. Inst. & observe the Contents.   It is not in my power at present to ascertain the Nett receipt from Col. Beaumont’s Lead Mines for the year 1800 – the several Leadmine Agents not having yet made out & sent me their Accounts of Charges &c. attending their Mines for that year, nor the quantity of Ore raised in the above time, that being the case, I think no better mode can be adopted than that of making the return of Income the same as last year 

      I am &c.  J:E:B:

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
