Millfield Barn, Pickwell Lane

A converted barn now a residence. The barn was previously known as Noah's Ark until at least the 1962 OS map after which it becomes Millfields Farm. The name Millfields comes from a house to the north that fronts onto Broxmead Lane though a field to the south is also called Windmill Field which may suggest a site of a former mill or fields owned by a local miller. However, there was nothing marked on the 1843 tithe map nor the 1813 OS map.
