family of Ingate moved here in we lived in Gerrald close only remembering there stood once a trough on piece of land this I believe was here before roundabout put in? there used to be large farm nearby my sister and myself used to have friends there. I presume the farm was made way for housing estate. can anyone who knew the farm and family where did they go?

Hi, I'm trying to trace my dad's family history. He lived in Shipston on Stour and his mother was Patricia Lygo (nee Wheatcroft) and his father Charles Lygo. My dad's name was Richard Andrew Lygo born 1961. He had four brothers; Nicholas, Jonathan, Patrick, Christopher and a sister called Melanie. If anyone has any information, please could you share it. Thank you.
