From John R Denyer
To William Ward Esq
Faringdon
Stone taken from neighbourhood of Siddington for repair of Turnpike road on Berkshire side of St John’s Bridge already passes at reduced tonnage. Cannot reduce rate further unless greater quantity carried which would be of benefit to the Canal. Otherwise more wear and tear of the locks & loss of water for the same amount. Inform me of additional district of road to be repaired with the stone alluded to, and the extra annual quantity required.
