To John White, lock keeper
Eastington
Mr Hopson the bearer will require the lock lowered about a foot as he is repairing the damage done by Mr John Wibby at Ryeford. You can do this but please pay due regard to the trade and the Company's interest and ascertain the position of any boats in the long pound before drawing water. Mr S. Hopson will pay you.
