The entries before 'Middleway', 'it's just rural tranquility', 'deserted', and 'of the year' are incorrect. However, there appear to be several mistakes of spelling, punctuation, and omission in your transcription, so it is difficult to be sure. It would be better if you rechecked your typing of the whole text.
