I'm not surprised actually as I was pretty sure it would be some kind of plot of land rather than a street. Thanks for that snippet; it all helps.

Shane, I've been dragging that map all over the place and I can't find Critchley's Lane which existed in 1852 on the Griffith's Valuation. Could you possibly locate it for me please?

getting back to the original question for a minute.... from what I've been able to find 'Patchwork' was somewhere along the Killarney Road to the south of Bray. The accident mentioned earlier occurred on the way to an training exercise where the fire engine overturned. The location is described in the article I saw as '...after the hill at the S bends..'   I dont see any significant Hills on the Killarney Rd these days, although there was an S bend just to the north of Killarney House that could fit.

some Lanes for you.... (select c1890 25" historic option) 

  Dalton's Lane - off the Main Street, opposite side of the road to Purcell's Tce and Field and near to the townhall

  Cruchley's Lane - off the Main Street and directly opposite Purcell's Tce   (I presume that's later corruption of Critchley's Lane)

Absolutely fantastic Shane - your eyes must be in good nick as I'm half blind! I'll now be able to draw myself a little map to fit all that information in! I love that map and I wish I could buy it but only the sections I need and in very enlarged version!

Truly I am delighted with all this Shane - thank you very much.

Hi,

I have never used this site before, but Googled Patchwork in Bray to see what came up. I found this thread. I am from Patchwork and grew up there. My parents built the current house in 1975. One corner of an older dwelling still exists on the site. This house was long ruined by the time my parents bought the site. We have searched for records of older dwellings, but we can't find any. Patchwork is on the Killarney Road and is not in Little Bray.

Colm.
