The configuration of Middle Farm has changed little since the first Ordnance Survey Six-Inch map of the area was published in 1865 although the surrounding area has undergone massive change. The area immediately behind Middle Farm was once the site of Seghill Colliery which closed in 1962. The properties within Middle Farm are now utilised as private dwellings, many of which have been converted from various farm outbuildings.
