Robin Hood's Mill is indicated on an 1851 O.S. 6" map of the Stainforth area[1] (formerly West Riding, now North Yorkshire). The name is included also on later O.S. 6" maps of the area dated 1896 and 1910 (see Maps section below). The mill appears to have been situated in the field between, to the west, Stainforth Lane and, to the east, the Ribble, but it is possible it was located in the southeastern corner of the neighbouring field immediately west of Stainforth Lane. Depending on the exact location of the mill, immediately south or southeast of it was Robin Hood Close.
