Copy of the probate of John Beatson of Cottingley Hall is held in the Sheffield Archives: p. Leeds SY319/Z/7/1 1767
He must have been at Cottingley Hall by April 4th 1738 because tha's when we get the following advertisement in the Leeds Mercury:
"To be sold Altogether and Speedily, at Cottingley near Leeds, a Parcel of Timber Trees with the Bark, Ash and other Trees proper for Husbandry, Geer &c., decay'd Trees proper for Cordwood, and a fine Spring wood called Hodgson other Cottingley Spring, consisting of about 24 acres.
The whole numbered and set out as they are to be disposed off and may be view'd by inquiring of Mr. John Beatson, at Cottingley Hall. For the Price and other Particulars enquire of Mr. Alan Johnson, Attorney at Law in Wakefield."
