Full description

Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.

A group of buildings is shown on the Tithe Map. Recorded on the Bideford Tithe Apportionment (Plot 1189) as House and Court, owned by James Jones Reynolds and occupied by John Atkins.

Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.

Farmstead marked as Lower Winsford. Comparison with the Tithe Map shows the farmhouse to have been expanded or rebuilt as a much larger structure and the farmbuildings to have been replaced by ranges of buildings around a courtyard, with a detached linhay on the north-west side. A well (W) is marked on the east side of the driveway.

Ordnance Survey, 2026, Mastermap 2026 (Cartographic). SDV366713.

The farmbuildings have been converted, shown as numbered dwellings of Lower Winsford Court.
