[Urmston]  2 Copy Conveyances of Land for the Railway

A contemporary copy of an 1868 conveyance of land by Lawrence Fogg for building part of the railway from Manchester to Liverpool - just one of many compulsory purchases to enable the line to be built.  In 1891 the railway company needed a bit more land to give them a wider margin.  Lawrence's 2 small plots of land were on the South side of the railway, and were either side of the Jewish Burial Ground which is clearly marked on a plan attached to the 1891 document.  As the railway hadn't yet been built in 1868, the plan attached to that document is only a brief outline.  2 copy deeds on a total of 11 large paper sheets.  (ref 303/14)

[Thornton documents]  5 Abstracts of Title to The Tarngate Estate

The 5 abstracts are dated 1871, 1875, 1890, 1898 and 1908 and between them chronicle deeds and documents reaching back to 1831.  The 1875 abstract specifically details a plot of land called The Short Butts which would imply this part of the estate was about to be sold off.  The 1908 abstract is accompanied by a hand-drawn plan on waxed linen showing Tarngate Farm bordering the Fleetwood-Poulton railway - indeed there's a level crossing marked on the plan as Tarngate Crossing.  Inevitably 5 multi-paged abstracts in relatively quick succession will have some duplication of detail, nevertheless they deserve to be kept together.  The 5 (ref 408/183)
