TitlePetition of the Inhabitants of Littleport
DescriptionThe petitioners complain that the lower part of their level is flooded, as William Cole keeps Littleport [Sluice] drawn up and the waters in Grunty Fen Drain are unable to reach their outfall. They believe that he acts in his own interest, and to their prejudice. They ask for a new fourteen foot or sixteen foot drain to be cut from Rack Fen to Modney Drain. Twenty four signatories.
