The red line on this map indicates the boundary of Putnoe Manor in the 18th Century. If you have ever wondered where Putnoe stops and Goldington starts then this map is as good a guide as any. However, for a 2nd opinion you can also look at the 2011 census and Electoral maps further down this page which have redefined Putnoes boundaries on all sides.

This is a map of Putnoe Manor towards the end of the 18th Century. The field names, field use and boundaries are indicated. The hatched areas are woodland. The extent of Putnoe Wood is very similar to present day. Putnoe farm was located by Wheathouse Pightle, Cloth Pightle and Home Clofe. Note that in the 18th Century 'f' was used in some words in place of 's'. The red line on this map indicates the boundary of Putnoe Manor at this time.

This is a map of Putnoe Farm just before it was demolished in 1967/68.
