4 Aug 1730 Hannah ( ) Silk death w/o Hugh 'Ye Elder' Silk; residence Cow Lane.
7 Oct 1730 Hugh 'Ye Elder' Silk death; residence Cow Lane - On the edges of the town, houses and cottages stood c. 1800 off the London road on the south edge, on the east edge in Cow Lane (otherwise Kew Lane, sometime partly Eastmead Street, and in 1999 wholly Anchor Road), and on the west edge in and off the Bristol road. Most of the cottages stood in groups, (fn. 41) may have been built by squatters or for workers in quarries or mills, and may not have been of high quality. Although few of them survived in 1999 the sites of many of them had by then been re-used for building. In Cow Lane, which followed the Marden from the mill at the south end of Eastman Street to Kew Lane mill, (fn. 43) there were three groups of cottages c. 1800. A small group stood immediately south-east of the demesne farmstead at the south end of Eastman Street, a larger group stood near Horsebrook mill, and another small group stood near Kew Lane mill. None of the first group survives.
