Stonehouse site.

1603 survey reads 'Humfry Hodgin... his stonehouse.'

Site next to Reed Beck, needs a survey. (Perriam and Robinson 1998)

Gatehouse Comments

No building shown on modern or 1868 OS maps and nothing apparent on air photo. Did Perriam and Robinson exclude the nearby Garth Marr and Garthhead houses as possible locations of this C17 tenement?
