This was the house of Joan Maynard, 1921 - 1998, a passionate socialist, local councillor and JP. The blue plaque on the front wall also recognises her work championing the cause of agricultural workers, her role as a member of the Labour Party's NEC, her time as an MP from 1974 to 1987, her campaign to abolish the tied cottage system, and her support for a united Ireland.
