Innings Road remained a gated road into the 1920s hence the
name of the 1970s close of six houses.
Permission for building these houses was given prior to WW
II, originally they were to be built in the field behind the School House but
there was considerable local opposition to this and finally they were allowed to
be built in the corner of Innings Meadow.
The gated road / track through Innings Meadow led to Little
Frieth, a group of what were then ten or so small farm workers' cottages and was
not called Innings Road until after the close of houses was built.
