There is a blunder in the Commutation map in assigning the field no. 288 (288) 8a3r29p to W.P. Honywood as parcel of The Gatehouse Farm - and no. 289 (289) 8a1r22p (which is parcel of The Gatehouse ) to Booms - This transposition is easily corrected between the respective proprietors - but is of more consequence in the tithe apportionment - it adds 2r7p to Booms and The Gatehouse is minus the same quantity - It has been corrected in the Parish Rate Book, and noted on the map
survey 1598 - fo. 107 - 108 and 109 - Booms was a large property containing altogether now in the respective tenures of Jn Moy Jonathan Hutley and Rich H. Solley - The quantity of Moy's portion appears to be about 13a# in both manors - The property being long in the possession of the same hands has been so divided and subdivided so that it is difficult to identify the present form with the old survey
copyhold lands belonging to Jonathan Hutley late Jas Cowlin and copyhold lands belonging to Jn Moy late Wm Batt from the Commutation map 1836
Booms and Gosses at the Reve continued - survey 1598 Rich Parker Gosses at the Reve 6a3r26p - copyhold of Priory. This leaves about 11a for Booms which corresponds with the quantity of the Commutation map
