Blacksmith. The ledger of a blacksmith living and working in Swaffam Bulbeck, Cambridgeshire, covering the period 1836-1850, 460 page manuscript in ink, original boards with vellum covers bearing various slash marks (presumably when the book was used as a flat surface for scoring), some slight watermarking to a few pages but in generally fine condition, folio. A fascinating insight into an important vernacular trade situated near the home of horse racing. Swaffam Bulbeck lies between Cambridge and Newmaket and close to the important horse race training area of Six Mile Bottom. The blacksmith, probably named Evanhart, covered a wide area as the ledger mentions the villages of Burwell, Botisham, Isleham, Swaffam, Wilbraham. The majority of entries cover work carried out for horses and it is most probable that he was one of the main farriers for the horse racing stables in the area. There are also references for work carried out for local workhouses and churches. Many customers appear to be long term and they include General (later Field Marshall) Grosvenor.
