JANUARY 25. The farmers of Woodbaft- 

 wick, in the fouthern part of this Diftrict, have 

 their marl chiefly from Norwich in boats 

 round by Yarmouth, forty or fifty miles. Some- 

 times they bring it by way of back-carriage 

 from Thorp-next-Ndrwich, about fix miles ; 

 at other times from Horftead, and other neigh- 

 bouring pits, convenient for back-carriage : 

 none within five or fix miles. 



The ufual quantity fet on is eight or ten 

 middling loads an acre. At Norwich they pay 

 one ihilling at Horflead eighteen pence a 

 load, uncallowed. 



The carriage (as back- carriage) is reckoned 

 worth about three millings or three fhillings 

 and fixpence ; fo that it cofts them about four 

 to five ftiillings a load ; or fifty Ihillings to 

 three pound an acre. 



The marl brought by the wherries is worth 

 at the ftaith about four Shillings the middling 

 load.
