The Morse Drybrook (General)

Well the Roman Road between Drybrook and Ruardean starts off as Morse Lane running West along "The Morse" , passing the "Rose in Hand" pub before joining Morse Road near Ash farm, again head west towards Ruardean passing Crooked End, before entering Ruardean.

Now Morse Road goes from the Hales, at Nailbridge up to Ruardean.

I "suspect" that one of these may have been known as Ruardean Rd in days gone by....( my instinct tells me Morse Rd )

re the Census record , is there anything enumerated nearby that can help locate the dwelling - a Church, Pub etc ? If the Nelson turns up you are on Morse Rd, if the Rose then Morse Lane
