Scope and content

Contains correspondence and invoices relating to the sale and purchase of wheat, barley, mixed corn and meadow fescue. Correspondence refers to the obtaining of seed and the sale and collection of the grown product. Hauliers mention the delivery of sacks and collection of full bags. Seed and grain merchants discuss the prices of seed and crops. Some of the grain is turned away due to mould, and weed in wheat allows it to only be used for seed. An annotated undated OS map shows a tractor and trailer route from Blyford Hall Farm through to Sotherton Hall to the grain dryer and storage.
