Lea Hamlet and Lea Bailey near Hope Mansel (General)

by Haydn, Leicestershire, (5799 days ago)

I have found relatives living in Lea Hamlet 1861 (situated on the Purlieu) and Lea Bailey. Using the Census and maps it seems this is east of Hope Mansell.

Does anyone know if this was a specific hamlet or just a collection of dispersed homes within the woodland?

Thankyou,

Haydn
