On the evidence of several credible sworn witnesses, it has been a general custom within the manor for 40, 50 or 60 years that any tenant or occupier might dig peat in anyone's cow pasture on the unenclosed common, keeping out of another's peat pot [i.e. area of peat digging assigned to an individual] for 2 years after digging had stopped.  So, we order that any tenant or occupier within the manor may dig peat in anyone's cow pasture (if he does not have sufficient peat moss of his own) without disturbance or molestation, according to the custom of the manor, keeping out of another's peat pot for 2 years after the owner has stopped digging in it. Penalty 6s 8d for every offence.
