1877 VELLUM DOCUMENT...Walpole Saint Peter, Norfolk. Large vellum document ; Conveyance of a freehold at Walpole Saint Peter in the County of Norfolk. Mr William Pike Bays to Mr Alfred Hill The sum of money involved seems to have been £90, and everything was signed and sealed at Wisbeach (Wisbech, Cambs). It's quite difficult to read the copperplate handwriting, and work out what it all means, because legal jargon doesn't seem to involve much punctuation. However, here's what I can make of the land involved: A freehold cottage or tenement, with the yard and piece of land or garden measuring ninety-six feet from north to south, and forty-two feet in width at the north end; eighteen feet in width at the south end. It was in Walpole Saint Peter, near the church and abutting onto a public path leading to the church. there are also details of who occupied the land adjoining it.
