Small plot of ground, numbered 1114a on the Tithe map and named 'Archers Meadow', which was leased and occupied by Henry Baker. On the 1890 25" OS map the area is shown as a garden with formal paths, trees, greenhouses, an L-shaped stable block and a small building in the north east corner. At this time the garden was part of the curtilage of Loughrigg (PRN 72165). Only the greenhouses are shown on the 1904 25" OS map and a flagstaff (PRN 72166). The house was requisitioned during the Second World War and housed a Royal Engineers experimental training school (PRN 56296). By the 1960s the area had become occupied by a builder's yard, with buildings along the north and western boundaries, including a sawmill. Mole Valley Farmers moved onto the site in about 1964. Other details: Fig 5-8.
