DescriptionThe petitioners report that Bevill's Leam, Whittlesey Dyke and Morton's Leam are very overgrown, preventing the drainage of water and causing their land in the Middle Level to flood. They ask for Bevill's Leam and Whittlesey Dyke to be scoured between Whittlesey Mere and Flood's Sluice, and for Morton's Leam to be dyked. Four hundred and nineteen signatories.
