ORGANIZATION OF THE MANOR 23 



1,074 acres divided among twenty-two owners into 1,238 pieces. 

 In some places furrows served to divide the lands instead of turf 

 balks, which were of course always being altered. Another 

 difficulty arose from there being no check to high winds, which 

 would sometimes sweep the whole of the crops belonging to 

 different farmers in an inextricable heap against the nearest 

 obstruction.
