TitlePetition of Several of the Inhabitants of Ely
DescriptionThe petitioners own Adventurers' lands in Little Shell Fen. They report that the Corporation's officers have cut their lands to make a bank between Burnt Fen Bridge and Isleham. They ask for compensation to be paid to them. They also ask for a sufficient fence to be built, as the bank separates their lands from the Bishop of Ely's fence. Nine signatories.
