Extract
John Webster, a farmer at Smiril in the county of Derby, occupies some land belonging to Lord Viscount Howe, which gives him a privilege on Middleton-moor, and wanting this year to burn some lime, he dug for that purpose into a Tumulus or Low, on that part of the Moor called Garret-piece and began his work at the bottom of it, on a level with the circumjacent ground.
