The hedge behind the stile, shows the east side of a Moat that protected this site. The farm has been with the Dutton family for nearly 100 years. John Darlington Dutton arrived in 1906 eventually buying the farm in 1917. John bred Hunter racehorses and his son Billy, a gentleman jockey, won The Grand National in 1928 on Tipperary Tim.
