Mentioned Dec 31, 1750, when Miles and Abigail Randall 
of Durham conveyed to Simon Randall 80 acres of land at
"a place commonly called ye Ash swamp brook," part of 
100 acres which their father, Nathaniel Randall, 
deceased, bought of Joseph Smith, "bounded on the south
side of ye Mast road." A bridge over Ash brook is 
mentioned in the Durham records of 1753 and 1754, and 
Ash Swamp-bridge is mentioned several times between 1755 
and 1763.  This brook is the outlet of Ash swamp.  It 
crosses the road from Lee Hill to Nottingham, near Mr.
John Thompson's, and empties into Little river.
