JAMES MORRISON (No. 2) 1884

James Morrison was again instructed to list the mill for sale (section reproduced below) (1884, p. 3). The mill did not sell. Part of the advertisement is reproduced below. Note the statement “[w]ith this lot will be included the tramways and the tramway rights Buildings and Machinery.” Emphasis added James Morrison was again instructed to list the mill for sale (section reproduced on the right) (1884, p. 3). The mill did not sell. Note the statement “[w]ith this lot will be included the tramways and the tramway rights Buildings and Machinery.” Emphasis added (1884, p. 3). The advertisement refers to multiple tramways. This tends to confirm the mystery tram lines referred to by Freegard (2019, p. 26) and included in the map item No 506237 (below), and item No 506547 (below), were constructed by Shaw(1884, p. 3).
