Dear Sir							

	On looking over our stock of lead at Blaydon I find we cannot at present spare more than 1000 p[iece]s of Common Lead  - and in offering that qty to Mr Thompson I am now deviating from our usual mode of Sales & must not be considered as a president for future Sales.

	The price for 1000 p[iece]s including one thenth slag will be £13 Six Mos Credit from date of Contract or 21/2 p Cent for Cash

								I am Sir BJ

Is Cookson Esqr

The Dukesfield Smelters and Carriers Project aimed to celebrate and discover the heritage of the Dukesfield Arches & lead carriers' routes between Blaydon and the lead mines of Allendale and Weardale. 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
