Curious maps.


I can find no record of 'Horselet' ( in between Hale and Prescot.)
It is as you see on a minor road
Is it / was it something to do with the old blacksmiths on Cronton Rd?
Then theres Roebuck.???
Places do get 'absorbed' but in 1837 this is out in the sticks. The Victorian industrial expansion has yet to happen.
There's usually a vague referance knocking about somewhere in a street name.

Hunts Cross perhaps? Geographically, it looks about right and horse and hunt.
