As always with old documents, names of people and also places and their spellings change. The people living in the place speak it to the priest, registrar or O.S. surveyor and they write down what they think they heard. This surely is the situation with Green Hurst, Greenhurst, Green House and Greenas. You can hear the dialect as you read.
There are two farms, Low Greenas and High Greenas. On the early 1854 O.S. map High Greenas is marked as Moorcock Hall. I haven't come across any other references to this name yet in any census or register however, and on the 1890 map it had become High Green House.
At, or close to, Washfold there was another house variously called The Green, Green House, or just Green. I've had to take care not to mix them up when placing people during data gathering.
Here is a list of relations who have lived or stayed at at some time or other.
