Hardy was voted to the chair. Among others present were T. Mayfield, S. Towson, J. Holbrook, J. Bowley, T. Locbies?, J. Lomas, W. Thorp, W. Berrisford, N. Ball, and H. Cresswell. Mr W. Smith observed the Tag-Hill proposal included the purchase of the Cross Keys – for £1600. Mr. J. Holbrook in explaining “no 1 Market Scheme” said is order to make it more complete he would suggest the purchasing of 850 square yards more land adjoining the proposed plot, belonging to Mr John Thorpe, which was now on sale, the owner consenting to sell it for £375.

A lengthy discussion on the various proposals offered took place, in which Messrs Towson, Mayfield, Cresswell, Thorpe and Bowley took prominent parts, after which Mr T. Mayfield moved “That Messrs J. Holbrook, J. Bowley and S. Towson form a deputation from that meeting to wait on the other market scheme committee with a view of arranging for a final public meeting. Mr. J. Paxton seconded, and the ----- was carried. Jenny |
