The Lordship’s Green, Over

History of The Lordship's Green

In 1837 this area of 4 acres was set aside as an “Allotment for the recreation of the Poor” and cannot be fenced. Trees were planted in 1902 to celebrate the coronation of Edward VII. There used to be a large pond on the north corner known as Green Pond.
