My parents owned Singehurst Farm. I lived there with my 7 brothers and my sister in 1962 /1967. I worked at the local hairdressers for a short while. We had lots of fun growing up on the farm, sadly my mum and dad passed away and my sister too. I live in Dorset now.

Of particular interest is the wire work, quite modern for then as many farms still used chestnut poles for individual hop hills. I remember individual poles being used at Foxholes in the 1970s.
