Haroldslea Drive

Here a private road giving access to quite a lot of houses and other premises. Also public bridleway 372. 'Haroldslea' and 'Harrowsley' are used for several features in this area, clearly the same root, but which has precedence? The 1870 survey map had the house now calling itself 'Haroldslea House' as 'Harrowsley'. However, the same map marks the area as a detached part of Horne parish, with the name 'Harwardesley or Haroldslegh' - so take your pick.
