Early-attested site in the Parish of Castle Morton

Etymology

This must take its name from the family of Keyse who were well established in Longdon, of which Castle Morton is a chapelry. They are found in Wills of 1584, 1592, 1628 and 1642 in Longdon and of 1631, 1633 in Castle Morton. They were doubtless ultimately the same family as that which gave its name to Chase End supra 96.
