Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 22/KW. 14.1.35.

With reference to the attached letter and account from Shacklock, Hill Farm, Edwalton, Notts, we do not consider that the account for the damage to the hedge is reasonable. We estimate that the cost of repairing the hedge would be about 50/-.
