Bearley, Warwickshire Beggars Bush 1891

1891 Census Return, RG12/2479 for Bearley District, Bearley Parish, records at 139, Whitley Beggars Bush, with Samuel Shervington, Head, aged 64, a Farm Labourer, with a housekeeper and at 140, Beggars Bush,  with Clement Weetman, Head, age 68, an Agricultural Labourer, with his wife, and adult son. Assuming the census taker is proceeding sequentially the location appears to be between Preston Green and Whitley House, along or near the Warwick Road east of Henley-in-Arden.

One of the common fields was recorded as Bushes Field in the Enclosure Act of 1775 which appears to be Bearley Bushes and a separate site.
