Notes about this historic site

1 The possible extent of the medieval settlement based on the OS map of 1886, 50SE.
2 The ridge and furrow plotting for the parish of Tredington shows survival that abuts the village in places to the north, west and south.
3 Newbold is not listed in Domesday.
4 Newbold on Stour is mentioned in the C14th in relation to the foundation of a chantry at Upper Ettington.
5 The 1886 map shows a compact village with lanes at right angles off the main street on the eastern side running down towards the Stour. It looks tidy and possibly with some planning input. WA2736 is the site of a medieval chapel of which the location is unknown.
