1804 SURVEY OF William Jones BURDETT’s ESTATES IN HIGH LITTLETON & HALLATR OW
1
Lady Elizabeth JONES, who owned the lordship of the manor of High Littlet on and a considerable amount of land
and property in the parish, died without issue in 1800. Under her Will s he devised her manors of Stowey and High
Littleton to her nephew William Jones BURDETT. In 1804 BURDETT commission ed Joseph WOLLEN of Wedmore to produce
a valuation of his estate in High Littleton and Hallatrow. For the purpo se of the valuation WOLLEN used SMITH’s
map of 1793, as updated in 1799. Various additions to the schedule have be en made afterwards from time to time.
There appears to have been some omissions and errors in the schedule and t he transcriber has highlighted these
by showing them in italics.
