Swinnock

Can anyone give me information about the area of Bradfield called Swinnock. An ancestor of mine was born there, and all I can find on the internet is a road called Swinnock Lane and some references to Swinnock Hall. My ancestor (Samuel Wilson) was from a poor family, and had no father given.

Re: Swinnock

Pamela,

On the 1855 OS map Swinnock Hall is shown simply as Swinnock,west of Wharncliffe Side.There is a reference to the history of Swinnock (Hall) within a Wickipedia article on nearby Brightholmlee.
