In my 1930s map it is shown as Windles Green, a cluster of houses by Runnell's Lane, off Edge Lane, which runs north west from the crossing of Gorsey lane and Buckley Hill Lane.
Tan House Farm and Birch Cottages are named.
The general area is probably Thornton, though I stand to be shot down on that one.
