TitlePetition of the Parishioners of Littleport
DescriptionThe petitioners report that they are in a deplorable condition, as they are now deprived of [Denver Sluice] to keep out the tides and St John's Eau to take the floodwaters. They ask for the [Welney Old River] and the New Dike to be scoured to May Lode, as they believe that this will secure the drainage until the proposed scheme is effected. Twenty six signatories.
