Well I can tell you Ed that I have never come across it in East Yorkshire........not that I profess to know every place name in the East Riding! It sounds to me like an address within a town

I have never heard of it and surely it would be on Genuki as they have some very obscure names on there. Christine

The only thing I can think of is Kirkstall Forge, near to Kirkstall Abbey in Leeds, founded by the monks... ...too far-fetched? lol
