Robin Hood Chase, formerly known as 'Robin Hood's Chase', is a path in Nottinghams connecting, to the north-west, Woodborough Road and, to the south-east, St Anne's Well Road. Currently the earliest source on record at IRHB for this place-name is a 6" O.S. map of Nottingham published in 1885 and surveyed in 1880-81.[1]
