Barthing Lee?

[Reiver]

I have a note given to me many years ago which said that a William Lowe was born in the parish of Dronfield in 1754.

But is there such a place called Barthing Lee, please?

I live near Dronfield but never heard of a "Barthing Lee" unless it's a misprint

There is a Birchin Lee Farm at Dronfield

Thanks Omskirk
I'm prepared to accept that 'Birchin Lee'.  There is obviously no hamlet in Dronfield llikely.  After all a 'farm' name at that time was probably a better name for a location..
Now to look at maps.

Again thanks

Birchin Lee Faram is to the west of Dronfield if you're looking on maps.
if you put Birchin Lee Farm,Dronfield in google earth you will get it
