Full Description

A series of buildings labelled as 'Woodfield House' are situated here on the 1st edition 25" OS map of c. 1880. (1) They are named 'Far Close Farm' by the 2nd edition 25" OS map of c. 1900. (2) The farm buildings are still extant and in use by the 4th edition 25" OS map of 1937-8. (3) The farm obviously fell out of use in the 20th century, as there is nothing apparent on modern OS mapping [2016]. There are, however, wall foundations / ruined walls visible at this location on Google Maps aerial photographs. (4, 5)
