Notes about this historic site

1 A former road ran from south east to north west from the present Tracey Farm on the Outhill-Oldberrow road towards the Gorcott Hill-Ullenhall road. Although shown as a continuous road on Greenwood’s map of 1822 and on the OS field sheets, the southern part had ceased to exist by 1839. A settlement at its southern end, Freemans Green (WA1208), had also ceased to exist in the same period.
2 The course of this road is still quite clear with banks and lines of trees along most of the distance.
