Title: Manuscript Valuation of Messrs Mather Parkes Lead Works North Wales, Jan 8th 1825. by Robert Daglish.
Description: Manuscript, 1825. Small 4to. pp. 6 [plus blanks]. Sheep backed marbled stiff card wrappers, spine a little worn. Based at Bagillt, near Holywell, but run from Liverpool, this appears to have been a short lived affair, being dissolved in 1827. The valuation is very detailed, totalling £9,396 14s 8d, of which £4,152 7s 5d was not removeable. In 1825 they advertised a 15 horse power steam engine for sale, which presumably was replaced by the 25 hp engine listed in this inventory.
