Robinhood End Farm in Stambourne parish[1] is located 4.82 km NE of Finchingfield and c. 600 m NNE of the hamlet of Robinhood End. This place-name is first known from Chapman and André's 1777 map of Essex (see Maps section below),[2] where it appears as "Robin Hood Farm".[3] On the 6" O.S. map of the area published in 1880 the locality is labelled "Robinhoodend Farm" [sic].[4]
