Origin of the name Tomblins Ditch (General)
The TOMLINS that are turning up born around 1815 are involved in Lime burning . kilns.
English Bicknor has a lime hertitage. Joyford / Berry Hill are linked to this.
Perhaps Tomblins Ditch ( bank ?) is a reflection of historic Lime extraction and burning (?) by the Tomblins/Tumblins family.
