IT IS BETWEEN THOMAS STUBBS of WESTMORELAND PLACE, CITY ROAD, MIDDLESEX of the first part and HENRY LEROUX, a surveyor of CANONBURY LANE
of the other part.
THE DOCUMENT CONCERNS PROPERTY IN THE PARISH OF ST. MARY ISLINGTON AND MENTION IS MADE OF THE EARL OF NORTHAMPTON AS WELL AS A "NEW INTENDED SQUARE DESIGNED TO BE CALLED CANONBURY SQUARE".
There is also a small plan of the property.
