Knowle Common - Meaning
« on: Friday 03 August 07 01:46 BST (UK) »
I have a Will dated 1785 for a John Gatehouse and in it he refers to his mother Mary living at the entrance to Knowle common.  John Gatehouse was living at Mere and I assume that Knowle Common must have been there as well.  Does anyone know what this was referring to?  He goes on to mention his Orchard which backs on to Knowle Common!
