1841 England Census, Lancashire, Winwick, Ashton in Makerfield, District 7 quotes an area "All that part of Ashton comprising of Smithy Brow, all the Town Green, Gillacre, Wallis Nook and part of Long Lane as far as the town division extends". There are 36 inhabited dwellings in Smithy Brow. Long Lane today is Bryn Road and poss also Bryn Road south. I've found all these places on a map except Smithy Brow. I give up!
