Survey of the Work-horse Tax in the County of Lanark from the 5th of [April] 179[ ] to the 5th of April 1797 by Andrew Aitchison Surveyor
Transcriber's notes
There appears to be an error in the header which should read 1797 to 1798, but the 7 is omitted from the first, and the second is written as 1797.
Scottish Exchequer (Tax Records), Farm horse tax - Volume 4 - Counties (Lanark - Perth) (see 'More info' for county details), E326/10/4

Scottish Exchequer (Tax Records)
The Scottish Exchequer, and subsequently the Court of Exchequer, were concerned with the accounting of collected taxes in Scotland. These taxes include the Carriage tax (1785-1798), Cart tax (1785-1798), Clock and watch tax (1797-1798), Dog tax (1797-1798), Farm horse tax (1797-1798), Servant tax (1777-1798), Hearth tax (1691-1695), Horse tax (1785-1798), Inhabited house tax (1778-1798), Land tax (1645-1831), Poll tax (1694-1698), Shop tax (1785-1789), Window tax (1748-1798). Following the Consolidating Acts (38 Geo. III cap. 40 and 41), the duties on windows, inhabited houses, male servants, carts, carriages and dogs were incorporated in Consolidated Schedules of Assessed Taxes (1798-1799).
