SUBJECT
William Borrer is buying property in Broadwater which consists of a messuage and 2 crofts totalling 2 acres, for which he is paying £1400. It seems that the property was owned by Thomas Richardson, but that George Moore had a mortgage on it.

This document is a record made for the Court of the Manor of Broadwater by Thomas Medwin, Steward of the Court. It is described as a "Copy of Admission", but since Thomas Medwin attests that it is a true copy, I presume that it must be nearly contemporary with the original.
