BML10/49/1

Correspondence mainly between Messrs Robinson and Hall, Bedford, Surveyors (on behalf of the Duke of Bedford), and Brown and Merry re damage from "Brick Fumes" to stock on South Pillinge Farm - property of Mr W Burton.

1939-41

From: 1939 To: 1941

In 1939 Brown & Merry inspected and valued the cattle following a diagnoses of poisoning associated with the brick works. Robinson & Hall wrote to ask them to justify the valuation and to re-inspect the cattle. The name of the farm is given variously as Pillinge Farm, Millbrook; Wootton Pillinge Farm, and South Pillinge Farm. The cattle are seen in a yard, shed, covered yard and in the home paddock and adjoining field. By 1941 Mr W Burton appears to be of Speadwell Farm.
