Malý Bor - Hliněný Újezd
Hliné Újezd is a local part of Malý Bor. Hliné Újezd is mentioned for the first time together with some other nearby villages in a donation deed dated October 18, 1045, addressed by Prince Břetislav I to the Břevnov monastery. In the past, the name of the village had different forms. On old country maps, for example, it has the name Oldenburg. In the collection rule from 1654, the village is listed as part of the Horaždovice estate of Ludmila from Šternberk and records only 3 not very movable peasant estates.
Hliné Újezd got its epithet "clay" from several brickyards that were in its vicinity. Pottery clay from municipal, manor and private brickworks was transported all the way to Sušice. In addition to bricks, roof tiles were also produced in the manor's brickyard. Around 1900, brickworks gradually disappeared. One of the first unified agricultural cooperatives in the region was established in Hliné Újezd. At the crossroads in the northern part of the village, there is a tall prismatic brick church of God from the first half of the 18th century. Together with the village chapel, they are registered in the list of immovable cultural monuments.

Subjects and freemen
It used to be said around the cottages that in Hliněné Újezd there are Ferds and Germans from the oldest families. Already before the Hussite wars, their ancestors were settled here and with their skill they redeemed themselves from labor. Their descendants then served as armor bearers on Rabi and were there when the famous hetman Žižka lost an eye during the siege of the castle.
How Hliný Újezd was created
Near Horažďovice, a nobleman received a piece of land from the Czech king. He got what he rode around on horseback. That's how the new village got its name from that riding... Újezd. And because there was good clay in the area, which was suitable for potters from a wide area, and in this earthy way actually made the village famous, they have had Újezd Hliněný here ever since.
A restless bell
In order for the people of Hlínené Újezd to know when it is noon or when it is time to kneel, they bought a bell. And because they didn't have a chapel, the bells were rung on the pillars at Ferdoc dvor. When the columns burned in one fire, the bell wandered to a nearby pear tree. So that they didn't have to keep moving the bell, the people of Ujezd eventually built the chapel after all.
