Trial over town moor dispute ends in historic settlement

In Newcastle, the Free Burgesses and the Magistracy reached a rare agreement after a long trial led by Serjeant Glynn. The plan confirms the burgesses and widows’ exclusive right to Town Moor and leaves cultivation of the moor to two appointed men, with parliamentary action to formalize the arrangement. Large crowds celebrated with bells and illuminations as the verdicts and negotiations concluded.
