Addressed to the Master and Fellows. Rowe has received instructions to survey the College Farm at Over following a fire there, and has travelled there to make a plan of the ruined buildings and make drawings and specifications for new ones. These new buildings were to cost £1131, but the drawings were amended when the Master told him (via Mr Mitham, builder and tender) to reduce the cost to £1000, if possible. The altered drawings and specifications were sent to the master tenders from Messrs Tracy, Smith & Crawley, Gray, and Mitham, and Mr Gray's tender was accepted. Rowe also had to journey to Over several times to oversee the work, and has measured up extra work and certified contractors' account. Total cost for Rowe's work - spanning May 1873 to April 1874 and including a 5% commission and travel expenses for him and his assistance - was £53 8s. 9d. Paid in two installments on 27th April and 5th June 1874.
