I would like to point to my blog page here .
http://incised-meanders.blogspot.com/ You will find a link to the 1755 diary inside my profile page. This may be of interest to those from different parts of the country as it contains anecdotal information and names. I referred to other papers from Leeds I sent to the Thoresby Society, in another post,and this diary is part of that suite but I have kept the book. It is possible that I will hand the book on.
