    3. Hi Bev Have you had a look at the 1:25,000 Ordnance Survey maps which are available on line at www.streetmap.co.uk - then zoom in to level 3 There's a group of three farms called Moore Farm, East Moore and West Moore between Rattery and Harberton http://www.streetmap.co.uk/idld.srf?X=274521&Y=59126&A=Y&Z=115&lm=1 which are probably the hamlet that you refer to and may well have been known as Morelands at one time. Alternatively there is a Moorshead, north-west of Rattery http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=271675&Y=63236&A=Y&Z=115 but this is in the parish of Dean Prior, so less likely. My money would be on the first of these, unless of course there was a house in the village of Rattery that was called Morelands.
