Description | Book of reference to maps of estates (c1190 acres) of John Crewe in townships of Sandbach, Betchton and Bradwall. Arranged in alphabetical order of tenant; records tenant, field numbers and names and acreages. The volume lacks a title page and may be a draft. It is undated, but includes later notes referring to new leases in 1768; the paper has an 'LVG' watermark which suggests a date in the 1750s. The survey may have been carried out when John Crewe succeeded to the estate on the death of his father in 1752 |
