  • Coal Aston. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-08-07. Revised by … Record IRHB comments Addy was about forty years old in 1888 when his Glossary containing this passage was published, so he cannot very well have had first-hand memories of morris troupes performing forty years earlier. In his entry on "morris-dance", Addy notes that "Fifty years ago and later Morris-dancers used to assemble in great numbers on 'The Cross' at Cold-Aston." Addy. op. cit., p. 151, s.n. "morris dancers". Addy's italics. Lists and gazetteers ⁃ Outside scope of Lancashire, Ian 1984a. ⁃ Outside scope of Wiles, David 1981a, Appendix I. Sources ⁃ Addy, Sidney Oldall 1888a, p. xix; and see p. 151, s.n. 'morris-dance'. Notes

  • The little field named Little John. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-08-10. Revised by … According to an 1844 tithe award, a field in the township of Tibshelf was named Little John.

It was characterized as a grass area, measuring 2 acres and 9 perches ( m 2 ). Cameron, Kenneth 1959a, pt. II, p. 315.

  • Plumpton Park Plantation. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-03-30. Revised by … In the Gest, King Edward is exasperated at noticing the scarcity of deer in Plumpton Park after Robin and his men have been poaching there during their stay with the knight. We should almost certainly take this to be in Lancashire, but it could just possibly be some place King Edward is meant to have visited after his progress in Lancashire, and in that case, a possible locality might be a Plumpton Park Plantation that figures in the 1851 tithe award for Huddersfield.
