This document from 1655 is like a written map. It clearly separates the two parts of the village – Waldringfield Hilton and and the Manor of Rivershall. I made three pages of notes re: names of bits of land and names of people before thinking perhaps someone has done this already. This written map is a major project on its own -to be discussed in detail, I think.
