Friday [sic; Tuesday meant] 21st April
Mr N Walker, Lessee of the Brick Kiln came to inform me that he had discovered a Seam of superior Clay for making Fire Bricks in a Field in the Hospitals Farm at Corbridge which he wished to be allowed to use in small quantities to mix with the other clay for that kind of Bricks for Fire Places etc. I agreed to allow him to dig a Pit of it, on satisfying the Tenant for any trespass and paying the Hospital £4 a year, as a consideration for the use of it. [marginal note: ‘approved’]
Went through the Hospitals Estates by Haydon Bridge & Whitechapel & then proceeded to Carlisle, where I had engaged to attend as one of the Judges for awarding the premiums offered by the Cumberland Agricultural Society at their Meeting held there on Wednesday the 22nd.
