Loxley Hall.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2019-06-04. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2021-01-06.
Loxley Hall is a recently built residential estate on the western corner of Chester Road and Lower Robin Hood Lane in Helsby.
With a handful of street and field names in this vicinity all going back to a now demolished Robin Hood pub which was in business by 1844, there can be little doubt that Sherwood Grove and Loxley Hall are part of a Robin Hood-theme. Loxley Hall has a late 20th to early 21st century look, so the estate is probably of fairly recent construction. Template:PlaceNamesItemQuery
