The farm, on Bedmond Road, dates from 1932, but was closed in 1979. The main entrance to the farm was through the arch in the middle of this building. This leads to a cluster of similar thatched buildings. Since 1982 all of these have been converted to residential properties now under the collective name of Antoinette Court. The origin of this name is that the farm was designed as a replica of one built by King Louis XVI of France for Queen Marie Antoinette.
