Newton Local History


The Mask 2021
These 2 maps show the ownership of the Mask in 2021.
Although many of the original strips have been bought by larger land owners, predominantly Leach (they are also in the process of purchasing Etty land) you can still see the strip ownership as first created in 1766 when the land was allotted to villagers in the Enclosure Award.
​
The Mask until 1766 was common land, inter commoned with the men from Catton.

Rules for owners in 1938.
