The farmhouse on the left is Grade II listed, https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1251458 , and dates from the mid-eighteenth century. Two former farm-hand cottages on the right were converted in 1986/7 to two holiday cottages. I've stayed here five times between 1987 and 2011. The farm had closed down its dairy herd since I last came here in 1995, and the farmer and his wife were retired - sort of! Curious about the name as the buildings lie on the North side of the road; never though of asking the owners the origin of the name!
