DescriptionHand-written time sheet from David MacGregor for producing the detailed plans for the "Duchess Countess" canal boat. Dated 21st August 1954 - 7th April 1958.
Found with a bundle of correspondence between David MacGregor and John H. Scholes, Curator of Historical Relics at the British Transport Commission, relating to the taking of lines from the Weaver flat canal boat, "Duchess Countess" before it is broken up. The bundle includes letters between the two making arrangements for work and payment, and a page of hand-written notes from MacGregor's research into the history of the vessell. The dates on the letters appear to be erroneous, see time sheet (BRSGB 2014.01001.03.20.10) for more accurate idea of dates.
