Folios 69v–74r contain deeds relating to Bowyer Row.

Folio 69v is blank for the first three-quarters of the space, and then the following two short documents are copied into the lower part of the page. Both belong to the following section, and must have been added later (or else they would have been included within the pages headed up for that section), they are in the same hand as the other deeds for Bowyer Row, and the first one has been labelled for its correct placing (see below). The second one appears to be an earlier document concerning the property, dating from before the earliest in the main section.
