Tremes Close, Marshfield
Looking towards Tanners Walk and the children's play area. These houses date from around the turn of the millennium. The development is more sensitive than many, as local materials have been used and the street furniture is relatively elegant.

2010 : High Street, Marshfield looking east
John Wesley visited Marshfield on Sunday 21st March 1742 but had little to say about it.
(John Bartholomew, Gazetteer of the British Isles (1887))
Says "Marshfield has a considerable trade in malting"
Marshfield was also a small town much concerned with wool and textiles.

Hebron Hall
This chapel seems to have a mixed clientele. It appears to have been founded in the late 1800s and played host to Plymouth Brethren, before its history becomes a little unrecorded.
