Full Description

Plumer's Green is only shown on the 1777 Chapman & Andre Historic Map, located just north of Fordham. The green is shown to be a thin linear section, in two parts, with an area of 1.5ha. The green does not appear on any other maps, so it must have been removed or developed over at some point before 1874.<1>
