TitleAward of arbitration in a dispute between John Ray and Messrs Smith and Frearson (trustees of Mrs Abbott) regarding the exclusive right and enjoyment of the Marlpool. In 1835 Ray deepened the pool and planted willows which inhibited the use of the pool by Smith and Frearson;
Ray also placed a well nearby and a stop-cock by which the level of the pool could be regulated. The arbitrator ruled by that Ray was the owner of the pool but that owners of certain land adjacent had a right to use it: therefore Ray, at his own expense, must construct a conduit leading from the pool, not interfering with the ancient sough leading from the pool, to ensure a sufficient supply of water to Smith and Frearson's cattle and horses, 4 April
