Transcriber's notes
Moat - Situation - written very faintly below the red ink entry, with an arrow pointing from the circled word 'hill' on the 1st line of the Descriptive Remarks, is (I think) 'A Natural feature?' Erased? because this comment is included/expanded upon in the Descriptive Remarks- Descriptive Remarks - there are words/letters lost in the page fold - best guesses inserted, except the end of the 2nd last line (doesn't seem to be e.g. 'but' or 'except' - an abbreviated 'however'?).
Birkshaw - there is a faint 4th entry in Various modes of Spelling & Authority - Birkshaw - Valuation Roll
However, this seems a duplicate of the 2nd entry and may have been erased?
