Sir	I received your letter dated 16th inst & observe what you say as to allowing you a Discount on the Lead, had it been customary I certainly would have sent it with pleasure but we have never done it to any of our Customers

	We are now selling Refin’d Lead at £16 per For & I believe in a little time it will be higher                                                                                            I am etc   J.S

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
