	Looks like you need to see the image - or if you're looking at it, the enumerator didn't understand what he was being told. Or it's disappeared. There's a Blakeshall southwest of Kinver but, otherwise, there doesn't seem much. Christine

	Bellewell could be the name of the house. If it is I would look close to the church and village well if you go looking for it. The naerest place I could find is a place called Kinninvie in Durham
