Hi Rod., The Ordnance Survey Explorer Map OL22 shows that today there are two farms in the Mount Pleasant area. the first is Mount Pleasant farm the second Kings Hyde Farm. They are only about half a kilometre apart. The area is just outside Lymington and lies to the west the main road A337. It appears to be in the modern parish of Sway. Boldre is just to the East of the main road and only about 2 km away. There is a Mount Pleasant farm in the 1881 census but no mention of Kings Hyde Farm. Hope this helps. Regards Bryce
Sway used to be originally be in the parish of Boldre before about 1900.
