Surprisingly it's a more recent one - around 1890 or summat. If y' root thru Leeds library's old maps you'll find it.

I found a few of them, further up the streamside. But there were one or 2 others without gate-latches. I also have a sneaky suspicion there's summat else lurking in the wooded areas which has yet to enter the archaeologist's records. Mi nose was twitching to something on higher grounds - dunno what it might be though....
