Transcriber's notes
Situation - unfortunately the writer sometimes writes his W [West] very similar to N [ North] - this example looks more like a N but elsewhere (and in a different hand OS1/10/40/1), it has the Railway entering "the Parish near the middle of Wn [Western] Boundary"Transcribers who have contributed to this page.
