Does anyone have this book?

If so, could you possibly check for me what rainfall is listed for the
following place:

Crosby Ravensworth (Reagill - Mr. Wilkinson) which is in Westmoreland.

many thanks.

They seem to be advertised from about £12 to as much as £42 per volume
depending on age, don't know how readily they sell though.
I built a complete run from 1865-1968 for about £10 a volume quite a few
years ago.

How much do old volumes of British Rainfall usually sell for anyway? I've
got loads that are just sitting around gathering dust.

I have a feeling Philip Eden has this or similar in his excellent
library. Maybe if you are nice to him..........

You should be able to get that information form the Met Office
library.
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/learning/library
It implies on that web page you have to visit them in Exeter which is
rather far from Crosby, but I have found that they will scan the pages
you want and then email them to you. The department to contact is
probably the Archive,

Good luck,

Cheers, Alastair.
