- Folios 208-212. Letter from William Powell, Clerk to the Guardians of the Newport Pagnell Poor Law Union, to the Poor Law Commission, enclosing a copy of a request to the guardians for the sale of parish property in the parish of Walton and a request from a majority of the guardians to the Poor Law Commission.

The property is detailed as follows: Four cottages or tenements with a close of pasture land called Town Close containing about 2 acres.

Two closes of arable land containing about 7 acres and 1 rood called [Trumpiton] together with all commons appending it.
