In 1888, the village comprised 7 houses and including the settlement of Kobylany had 79 residents. The settlement had 1 house inhabited by 4 residents. Reksuł is a linear village located to the north of the village of Sobień, on the Bzura river, and between the villages of Sokola Góra and Tkaczewska Góra; homesteads are situated on both sides of the village road with a near-longitudinal layout. Elements of the cultural landscape characteristic of the Dutch colonization are detectable. The village is situated on a natural rise of terrain. Fields slightly descend westward, away from the road. Numerous poplar and willow trees extracting water excess from the ground are present. A small river runs parallel to the road draining the excess of ground water. The cemetery’s layout resembles a ca. 50 x 50 m square and is entirely overgrown by bushes and self-sown trees; no gravestones have survived. SGKP, t.IX, 1888, s. 607. |
