Transcriber's notes
should '(Remains of)' be written 3-times in Various modes of spelling? It seems to have been written in later
Church - Descriptive remarks: unknown word after 'distance of 140' - doesn't look like feet, chain, ell, fall, pole - looks like it starts with an li or h so guessing at 'links'
