R3/4848

Letter Reads- There is about ninety Agricultural Labourers and their families in the town of Woburn. There are about 3000 acres in the parish of which about 1200 are let as farms, 600 are in the Duke's occupation as farms and the remainder park, plantation, woods and accommodation lands. If Lord John Russell wants this information for statistical purposes, Mr Bennett feels that Woburn cannot be considered a purely agricultural parish and the information may therefore be misleading.
