Guest Gramps Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Heeley is about as much as I know. Let's see if anyone can narrow down the location. Source "John Brownell of Heeley, Sheffield in the parish of Sheffield, scythesmith, (brother and heir of Henry Brownell, scythesmith, deceased) to Henry Brownell his youngest son. A close in Heeley, Sheffield formerly called the Two days work and now Nether Dole, with a wood adjoining, for 10/-d" There was a small wood near Heeley Common called Brownell's Plantation so perhaps the Nether Dole field is the one adjacent to that (15 - 3.390 acres). It was there on the 1850s map too but not shown very clearly on my copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madannie77 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Maugherhay (Magathey) anybody ? Mentioned in Whites 1852 - Somewhere near Norton The 1950s Geographia Map (part 8) has Maugherhay marked as being in the School Lane area of Norton. EDIT SteveHB's 1931 map also has Maugerhay in the School Lane area of Norton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gramps Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 When I was a kid I used to wonder where Duplicate was, there were always a lot of buses and trams going there, especially at tea time. Always though that was a bit daft. Unless you knew what the destination of the previous tram/bus was how could you guess the 'duplicate' destination ?

DaveH Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Maugherhay (Magathey) anybody ? Mentioned in Whites 1852 - Somewhere near Norton Funny you should word it like that. My 4x Great grandfather, Jonathan Higginbottom, lived at Maugerhay Interestingly it appears on census records and the IGI as "Margathey" rather than Maugerhay, possibly because the enumerator wrote down what the locals said to him, an insight into the regional dialect perhaps. Of course it was Stuart that sorted out for me that "Margathey" was in fact Maugherhay. The lane is quite definately still there as shown by these photos, however none of the original cottages seem to be and it is now a private lane, firmly gated off at the bottom end.

DaveH Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 So - another for the Un-adopted Roads then ? Looks like it, although not very well maintained it is a private road but does have a council roadsign with S8 Sheffield designation, - although in my ancestors time this would have been in Derbyshire. I think the original road and its associated cottages and area would have been part of the Oakes Park / Bagshaw estate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the original road and its associated cottages and area would have been part of the Oakes Park / Bagshaw estate. There was once an Inn at Maugerhay .. At Maugerhay is a free school, situate a little to the S.E. of Norton, where about 80 children are now educated. Formerly here was an inn and bowling green, much frequented by pleasure parties from Sheffield; but it is now a private residence. Near this to the S.E. is The Oaks, a handsome mansion situate in a fine park, the seat and property of William John Bagshawe. Esq. 1846 Maugerhay. Charles James Fox, schoolmaster, (Endowed Public School) Henry Fox, shopkeeper. Reuben Rodgers, shoemaker. Kelly's 1854. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
