Regular.

Seemingly six gatherings.

Contemporary vellum on boards.

Single, plus one poem in another, perhaps the compiler's son.

Includes son’s tribute to mother at the end ("On the Death of a Most Indulgent Mother by her Son"); suggests rereading of the book.

Two items marked “+”

Freely drawn lines (or sometimes double lines) at the ends of items.

Lines under titles. 

Yes. Definitely "On the Death of a Most Indulgent Mother by her Son"; other poems have been written by Heigham's acquaintances, including several sonnets by Charlotte Smith and an elegy by Mr Hammond; a few other unattributed poems might also be original.

The epilogues altered or spoken locally are presumably local productions ("performed by Henry Heigham").

Signature inside front cover: "Anne Heigham 1781."

Generous white space.

Paginated (in original hand pp. 1-103; then p. 104 by another hand).

Yes, at front.
