My earlier message to Defra could not be delivered because a mail routing loop was detected between the mail systems involved.

After my first attempt bounced due to a mail routing loop, I resend the same FOI/EIR request about 1936–1955 Great House Farm records to Defra's published GOV.UK address.
“It was returned as undeliverable (a mail routing loop), so I am resending it to the address published on GOV.UK.”
