Monument record 272/2 - Possible Former Village Green, Weston

{1} The 1593 map of the village indicates that some of the houses at the north west end of the main street then stood on an 'island' surrounded by lanes. This suggests that there may once have been a second green at this end of the village.

{2} Earliest map showing possible site of green.

{5} Aerial photo NCCAP: SP5846/001.
