The entry for Teddesley Hay in the Victorian County History for Staffs on British History Online suggests it might be included in Penkridge

Thanks for the reply. I've looked for it in Penkridge and Cannock but can't see it in either.

Staffordshire / Tithe map for extra parochial areas?

I'm trying to find the tithe map for Teddesley near Penkridge but I understand it was an extra parochial place... does this mean a map won't exist?

Thank you arthurk, much appreciated. I'd independently got some of those since my earlier post and they almost all agree with your interpretation, I'm guessing skimmer is for skimming off milk, not sure what the 'formes', ' lomes' or 'cooler' could be - cooler is mentioned again a little later on - but I did learn the word 'posnet' today :D

I'll post the final section shortly, if you could look it over that would be fantastic.

Many thanks

Paul

Yes I've just realised that too - it's the weird 'p' that was throwing me! Many thanks.

I have an inventory of goods, each line starts and ends with the same two words followed by the valuation as per this example. Can someone tell me what the words are please? The first looks a bit like 'from' and the last 'sprise'

Thank you,

Paul
