The above map shows most of the land contained in the Hanlith Enclosure Award. The Enclosure Award Map isn't lodged in the NYC Record Office and this information is a tentative reconstruction based on the Award text and field details contained in the much later 25 inch scale OS map (1909). Other parcels mentioned in the Award are quite probably contained in the area between Windy Pike Lane and Baregill Lane. The first parcel of James Constantines's land probably lay just south of Windy Pike farmstead (OS field 78, 5.226 acres), more work still needs to be done or an original copy found.
