Northfield Parish - historic subdivisions

Hi,

I'm currently working on a series of colour maps the former Northfield Parish based on the tithe map of 1842. I wanted to break down the map into smaller chunks based on historic subdivions. I've read that within the parish there were three manors - Northfield (or Weoley), Selly, and Middleton. Does anyone know if there exists any description of these manor boundaries (or better still a map)?

Thanks!
 
Hi Andy,

Weoley Castle library has a briliant local heritage section including info on the manors. Well worth a visit.
