Cirencester to Stroud Turnpikes Sabre Wiki list

Post by Mr Red »

Cirencester to Painswick

map turnpikes.org.uk shows two routes from Ciren to Stroud. Sabre list - only one.
the above maps is borrowed from previous researchers by a guy doing a PhD on Toll Houses. I continued his work at the Milestone Society after he stepped down.

One other interest was what local aficionados refer to as the - "Bisley Path" where there are a number of stones that might fit the route on the map Gloucestershire Milestones (zoomed), though it might refer to Daglnworth if there were evidence of, say milestones, (sadly not).

What proof there is - is on this map - Metcalf 1816 with its MS and TP plus our Bisley Path stones.

So my point is - is there a need to add a row delineating a second route? Sabre Gloucs list

There is a separate issue - to be raised on another post.

From the SABRE Wiki: Gloucestershire Turnpikes#Cirencester to Stroud Turnpike Trust :

ithin the Historic county of Gloucestershire, many Turnpike Trusts maintained the roads. Below is an approximate list of those identified so far:

If it's missing, and there's evidence of the route's existence then feel free to add it in.
