Vis=30/1/1984 (griffiths) the farmhouse and some of the outbuildings were demolished in advance of quarrying, circa 1979. The screen from the house is reported to be at aller farm, christow (sx88sw/32). Of the outbuildings, one barn, (a bank barn, fairly unusual), is still in use, and a further two (on either side of the road) are ruinous. It is possible that some foundations of the house survive (worksheet).
