Hough Green away from Chester
Image: © John S Turner Taken: 18 Sep 2009
Looking along Hough Green in the direction of Saltney. The road to the left, also known as Hough Green, accesses a row of 1970s houses. The large hedge on the left does not have a bank or associated ditch, but whether it be new or old it follows the old hedge line shown on the 19th century maps. Somewhere near the lamppost there was once a First Geodetic Levelling bench mark on a stone over a gully, but there is no sign of it now, and in fact it is not shown after 1874 on any map that I have seen.
