First World War Memories of Girls Working on The Land

I have a small book of the memories of my mother and aunt who worked on Lord Rayleigh's farm during the First World War. Does anyone else have relatives who worked there? Would anyone like to read these? I would love to have a photo of the farm. Mary

Hi Mary I have just discovered my GGG grandfather James Cross worked on the Wasses Farm, I believe from around 1881 to 1901, with his son Benjamin. I would love any information about the farm. What type of farm was it ? Any help would be appreciated. Elizabeth Rose Canberra, Australia
