Glorious, cold, misty morning #today on the Greenway in #OldnallEnd between #BalsallCommon and #BurtonGreen. The trees on the horizon form the boundary between fields that in 1839 were called Middle Close and Far Close, named for their position in relation to a farmstead now long gone.

It’s #OnePlaceWednesday and I’m 2 weeks (ok, 8 years) into a #OnePlaceStudy of #OldnallEnd (now in #Berkswell and #BalsallCommon ) in #Warwickshire. For my first mini project, I’ve been identifying all the plots in the 1839 #TitheMap and entering them on this Google Maps layer, with notes & (from today) photos. It’s a bit rough, but it’s starting to look like something! Any advice more than welcome :)

@SocOnePlaceStudies thank you so much! “My” hamlet is Oldnall End, which is now in #berkswell and #BalsallCommon - I’m not sure yet exactly what its boundaries were, or how much of an identity it had outside tax and property transactions, but I’m looking forward to figuring it out! I can already see it’s going to be hard to stop at just one, but I will be strong :)
