I have just received from my Cousin, my Great Grandad's Work Log, listing many local names around Blakeney, from 1891 'ti; 1903 (by which time his eye sight was failing). e.g. Nov 19 1893, Lent Mr Thos. KIRBY - £2 - Killed Ox for Mr JONES, Two Bridges.

In this log, is a lovely leaflet, dated 1913 with a picture of a Shire Horse (Finstall Sultan) - the property of Vernon Jones, Blistors, Bream, Glos - Stud fee £2.2s. or Farmer's Unregistered Mares £1 10s. - Groom's Fee 2s 6d. (with a write-up inside the leaflet)

I've sent this to Admin, and hopefully this will be added to the FOD records
