Full description

Ordnance Survey, 1904 - 1906, Second Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch Map (Cartographic). SDV325644.

Rectangular structure shown on 1904-1906 25 inch Ordnance Survey map in southwest corner of main farmstead.


Knight, S., 2009, Westcott Farm (Personal Comment). SDV342323.

Stone built linhay/shippon with brick corners, now enclosed with wooden doors. Has the date 1883 in the west gable end. A building is shown on the 1880s-1890s map but appears to be on a different alignment to that shown on the 1904-1906 map and may, therefore, be an earlier building. Other details: Photos.
