Title: Place name
Post by: Suzy W on Tuesday 23 May 17 00:46 BST (UK)

Is there such a place name as Beachwell in Leicestershire.  It states on a marriage, that the lady in question came from there.  I did a Google search and nothing coming up.

It does look like Beachwell, but perhaps it's supposed to say Bitteswell? Bitteswell is just north of Lutterworth
