Monument record 14292 - Site of Post Medieval Farmstead to the east of Out Lane

<1> See map for surveyor, c.1837-51, Cheshire Tithe Maps and Awards (Maps and Plans). SCH3266.

The Tithe map for Bunbury, circa 1842 (source 1), depicts a building and plots of land to the east of Out Lane. The accompanying apportionment records the following information: Plot 297, 'Cottage, Garden, Croft etc', owned by Henry Raikes and occupied by Peter Dutton. The Ordnance Survey First Edition map of 1872-82 (source 2) depicts this building and an ancilliary building, as do the later second and third editions (source 3 and 4). The buildings are still present on air photographs dating to the 1940s (source 5), but have disappeared by the 1970s (source 6). It is possible that there may be below-ground remains of the homestead still in situe.
