TitlePetition of the Inhabitants of Ramsey, Bury, Upwood, Holme, Glatton, Stilton, Yaxley, Farcet, Stanground, Whittlesey, Denton, Caldecote
DescriptionThe petitioners report that the upland waters of Huntingdonshire have no outfall from the Middle Level. They ask for the Thirty Foot Drain, Forty Foot Drain and River Nene to be scoured and cleansed, as they are very overgrown. They also ask for the dam across Bevill's Leam to be removed, as it is obstructing the passage of water. Four hundred and forty signatories.
