  • not sure about that, check the photo below. in this the gate opens out onto a field. in the location you marked the track is tree-lined for perhaps another 30 metres or so? http://www.bernardomahoney.com/rrmurders/photos/cpho2/photos/16.jpg
  • The exact location is further to the right of the crosshairs, pretty much where the field opens out. The map is also way out of date as the path is now crushed ashfelt, much wider, with some kind of war memorial near the location of the murders.
  • Lane looks nothing like that nowadays. It has been widened with a war memorial at the entrance to the field which is the actual location that the murders took place.
  • is this loacation workhouse lane or moss lane?
