Full description
BALKWILL, Untitled Source (Migrated Record). SDV44259.
Site of south windbow, shown on tithe map, owned several fields, as well as buildings at buttermoor just to south at ss91684612. Settlement appears to have been transferred to here.(tm).(north windbow is at ss91911664). Windbow's earliest documentary references are in the 13th century. The name probably means "at the crooked curve".(mawer et al). Balkwill suggests that this may be the site of mid-windborough on the basis of the 1809 1" map. Traces of earthworks can be detected here. South windbow is put to the south-east near courtenay ss91nw/58 (balkwill).
