Upon the inclosure of the parish of Little Dunham, in the county of Norfolk, in the year 1794, being lord of the manor, I got a clause inserted, directing the commissioners to set out a parcel of land to be called, and to be vested in the lord of the manor, rector, churchwardens, and overseers of the poor for the time being, and to be let by them for twenty-one years on lease; the rents and profits to be laid out by them in fuel, to be delivered at the cottages of the poor, in such proportions as the trustees should think proper.
