Wow that is a tough one.  Is it written anywhere else like on the next/previous page that might be a little more readable?

Looks like ends in "erry or berry"

Its a fork in a country lane where there was apparently a couple of very small structures. Pink blobs on the tith map. There are two fields at that junction and both are called

Twinaway and Homeward Twinaway .... do you think its possible from the blobs you can see lol?
