Helsby, in or near which Robin Hood Field was located.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-01-21. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-12-05.
Robin Hood Field is listed in an 1845 tithe award for Helsby.[1] It is hoped that further research among the tithe awards will reveal the location of Robin Hood Field. In the meantime, the coordinates used in the Google map and cited in the infobox are those of Helsby.
