Loxley Close.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2020-06-18. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2021-01-07.
Given its location on the southern outskirts of Barnsdale, it seems likely that the name of the short residential cul de sac Loxley Mount was inspired by Robin Hood's alias. The houses on Loxley Mount are all of fairly recent date, so a 20th (or 21st?) century date seems likely. A side street of Loxley Mount is named Sherwood Close.
