Title: Value Today of L22,150 in 1818
Post by: Kamante on Monday 25 March 13 15:25 GMT (UK)
In 1818 my ancestor Francis Forster of Margate, Kent sold Low Buston (in Warkworth Parish, Northumberland) to the Appleby's for L22,150. [Source: p. 230, Vol. V, History of Northumberland, by Hodgson.]

What would L22,150 be today?
