I passed the lane the other day and wondered who "Miss Grace" was. Does anyone know please?

the southern stretch of Madgett Road,
the only part of the two routes surviving
to become a metalled road, was later called Miss Grace's Lane
after the occupant of Chase House during the earlier 20th century.
(fn. 65)

A new farmstead, Chase Farm (later Chase House), and a few cottages were built on the chase soon after its inclosure in 1815, (fn. 60) and more cottages, in a fairly compact settlement east of Chase Farm, were added in the middle and later years of the 19th century.
