Title
R S Harter, Duchy of Lancaster Office, Somerset Place, to Philip Gell -expecting a letter about the Moot Hall at Wirksworth which is so dilapidated and dangerous and requires immediate action - Mr Wilshaw wishes for some answer re the ground, of which he is the owner, upon which it is proposed to erect a new Moot Hall - the price he sets is too high and much greater than the cost of repairing the old Hall - unless the town increases its subscription, the new Hall cannot be built. 13 Nov
