Robin Hood House, 66 Birches Lane, Lostock Green.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-01-17. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-12-16.
Robin Hood House, 66 Birches Lane, Lostock Green is a recently built house which seems to have been first put on the market in 2006.[1] I assume the name is little older than that. It may have been inspired by the Robinhood Farm once located nearby.
