Content:
In the first part of this title the author draws on the correspondence and other writings of Richard How of Aspley Guise (1727-1801?) to present a picture of life in the Bedfordshire village of Aspley Guise in the 18th century - the effect of land tax, poor rates, parish disputes and enclosure. The second part is a study of land transfers based on land tax assessments in Tilsworth, Sundon, Milton Byran, Billington, Aspley Guise, Whipsnade, Studham, Chalgrave, Harlington and Toddington.
