Analyses the landed estate income of five Northumberland estates - including Earl Grey Estate, Greenwich Hospital Estate, Crewe Trust Estate, Allgood Estate, Blackett / Beaumont Estate - to comment on changing incomes 1700-1850. Deals extensively with the calculation and relative importance of lead, providing an analysis of extraction, processing and marketing, especially for the Greenwich and Blackett / Beaumont Estates. Does not cover coal extraction but uses coal incomes for comparative purposes
