During The Ashdown Forest Dispute 1876-1882 commoners and land owners were interviewed by the solicitor William Raper. Their comments were recorded in a series of notebooks:

[Carr/Card's evidence from Notebook 5 is inserted here to bring both statements together. It should be noted, however, that three years separate the two statements.]

Card, Harry. Aged 81. Owns double and 28 acres called Prickets Hatch lying across the boundary of Maresfield and Fletching parishes. This property has belonged to his Father and himself for over 100 years. His Father bought it off a man named Cole. He was born on it a small part of it. Was held of the manor of Maresfield and he enfranchised it over 30 years ago, quarterly rent 3s. 6d. He used to pay 1s. 8d. to the manor of Tarring Peverall, but has not paid it for over 40 years. Part is within the bounds of the manor of Duddleswell, but is free.

During The Ashdown Forest Dispute 1876-1882 commoners and land owners were interviewed by the solicitor William Raper. Their comments were recorded in a series of notebooks:

Carr, Harry. 84. Pricketts Hatch, Nutley, Maresfield. Born 11 January 1795 and baptised at Maresfield. My Father Vince Carr bought the Pricketts Hatch property about 28 acres in 1768 from one Cole. I produce the purchase deed of the freehold portion and he lived on it. I was born in the house on the property and have lived in it ever since. My Father died when I was 2 years old and my Mother carried on the farm for many years, I helping her, and when I was old enough she gave the farm up to me and I have used it ever since.
