A schedule of income that the Bishop of Durham might expect to receive from the lease of his Weardale Enclosure allotments and an illustration of how this might be expended. Probably dates to autumn 1798 when the inclosure’s benefits top the See were being estimated and a plan for their use outlined. 1 Sep 1798 used here. Assumed to be ofrm Thomas Bernard, who had an active interest in the topic.
