HARRIS TOWNSHIP · 71 PARCELS ACROSS ITS SECTIONS
Sherwood Forest is the register's most literary street plan. The county file carries 71 parcels — a first section filed simply under the name (54) and a Section 2 (17) — on the northern-tier ground east of Cherry Road (centroid −86.0796, 41.7576), and the listing record names its interior streets: Sherwood Drive for the plat itself, King Richards Way, and Little John Lane. The vocabulary is a complete Robin Hood set — forest, king, and the outlaw's lieutenant — of a piece with the wave's habit of themed interior naming that the banked streets article traced stratum by stratum, and it dates the plat's marketing as surely as a sign: this was a plat sold on a story. The build-year samples the assessor and listing records give cluster tightly at the story's moment — houses dated 1987, 1988 and 1989 on Sherwood Drive and King Richards Way, the King Richards Way house's assessor record showing a sale in December 1987, the plat's first section building out in a single late-1980s run.
Its lots run at a median of 0.37 acre, some 31 acres in all, and its present state is complete: all but one of its parcels improved, one vacant-classed. No proprietor, builder or recording date is reachable on the open web; the tightness of the build years suggests the Recorder's date for Section 1 will land in the mid-1980s, but that is inference and is printed as none. Named gap — Sherwood Forest's proprietor and recording dates: settler, the St. Joseph County Recorder's plat books (Harris Township books), GAP-NBH-5's settler named for this plat.
