| Description | This appears to have been a dispute as to the rights of tourists to boat and fish at Pickmere mere, and their disruption of the peace of the owners of land around the mere (the riparian owners). 'Large parties from Manchester and other places coming on Sundays in wagonettes to the Red Lion at Marston and proceeding to Pickmere for boating on the lake' are considered to be a great nuisance, and it is against them that the riparian owners are protesting. |
