Robin Hood Road is one of a cluster of eleven, mainly residential, streets with Robin Hood/Ivanhoe-themed names in Kirk Sandall. Judging by the look of the houses, the road is clearly of 20th century date. It must be later than 1948, for it is not included on an O.S. map published 1950 which includes revisions made in 1948.
