Burnt House Farm
A Memory of Sandhurst.
I was born in Burnt House Farm, Sandhurst Kent in 1956, I lived there with
my parents and brother, who started at the village primary school in 1956. My father farmed at Burnt House Farm for about 5 years prior to us moving in 1959, just after my sister was born at the private nursing home in Hawkhurst. If anyone remembers my mother and father, the Pickerings, or if the present owners of the farm read this, I would love to be able to visit the farm and house and just see where I was born. I was told it is a 13th-century house with exposed beams and there was the original brick flooring in the kitchen and probabley an inglenook fireplace in the sitting room. I would love to hear from anyone who can help me on my visit of my birthplace.

The Pickering’s were customers, and Sheila Pickering was one Mum’s friends.
The house was bought by the actor Donald Houston who was there for several years.
