Shirley Park Farm

By 1851 Joseph Pegge, his family and five servants were farming here. They sold up in 1857 on the death of Joseph.

In 1881, Joseph Dakin and his family farmed here.

In 1903, it was occupied by William Millward when a fire broke out in a hay loft.

Thanks to Sue Coverley, who was born here, for the photograph.
