How interesting.  I was just there last weekend taking photos of Balls Hill.  After a day in the archives, I found that my GGGG Grandfather, William Reeves lived on Balls Hill in 1827 with wife Sarah and son George.  It was listed on the parish record as "Balls Hill Wellington".  Does that make sense?  Do you know if any of the houses date that far back?  Thank you,

Matt Reeves

The house I live in belonged to a Mrs Ball.
My husband bought it after she passed away.
Her name was Lily Ball and she died in 1988. Her husband was called Alfred.
