These pictures and comments are from the Bottling Wood section in Album/Places

In a map from the 1800's there is a pub shown as being the Woodmans Inn LINK

In this crop and blow up of Bottling Wood, it shows that a lot more property had been built since the map from the 1800s had been printed.



This map from 1914 shows more property in Bottling Wood LINK

And the smallish building at the bottom of the picture with the smoking chimney would have been just across the footbridge from the bottom of Coppull Lane and it could have be a pub
