Small village of c 15-20 houses surrounding junction of Weaver's Lane with the Mansfield-Derby Road (nothing on OS 6in of 1887 and 1914-38). (1)
Village/parish church described as deserted in the C19 due to the movement of population and the growth of the new colliery centre (New Annesley). (2) (3)
Fragments of earthworks remain on the W and SW of Annesley Hall, near the Derby to Mansfield Road. (4)
The later village, S of the church, has been entirely destroyed. The suggestion of earthworks proabably refers to its sunken roads now part of the gardens. (5)
There are no extant remains of the village depopulated in the C19. The area is now covered by gardens. Brick, stone and tile can be seen where the soil is disturbed and the retaining walls of the gardens' sunken paths incorporate a few fragments of worked and moulded stone. (6)
See M2562 for earlier village.
