Robin Hood's Bog.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-05-09. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2021-01-06.
Robin Hood's Bog is "situated in the woods on the eastern edge of Chillingham Park",[1] about 2 km east of Chillingham. So far the earliest reference I have found is a 6" O.S. map of the area published in 1866, based on surveying done in 1860 (see Maps section below). Template:PlaceNamesItemQuery
