The 1816 Tenantry Column was paid for by ‘grateful’ tenants of the 2nd Duke of Northumberland, many were also part of a unit raised by him to fight Napoleon. It thanked the Duke for dropping rents by 25% during a post-war recession. After doubling them during the war, it must be noted. Nice Chap. /2

Alnwick 1851 map cover, this time a cheeky light burgundy colour.
