This little farm lies to the west of Iveston village. It's a bit of a mystery. On older O S maps (up to the 1940's) it is shown as Sunniside Pumping Station. Perhaps connected to mine workings. The sheds here are obviously 20th century, but the house looks older, and could date from the former use. The name Sunniside refers to the nearby large farmstead.
