[QUOTE="willy, post: 5959938, member: 994"] I have a farm map from 1710 done by Burghley estates and 90% of field are the same size (not rpa style) and have the same name. Yet I contract farm for a neighbour and in the last 20 years it has changed hand twice and the names are all wrong by small amounts I.e cold oaks was in fact cold oats. ( I know this as the guy who retired from me last year was born on the farm as his father was herds man and so Know this. Just shows how small a accent and an agents pen can write something different. If I take A farm on I always try and keep original names and sometimes have to go back a generation to find them out.
