Newlands Farm

These are just some of the photographs inherited from the late Derick Johnson of Forest Town. While Derick did write information on the back (see picture captions) unfortunately he did not date them.

  • These were taken after 1995, before that there was only one pond and a rusty area. I was a gamekeeper on there with Mick Holmshaw. We ran the fishing on the pond too which for years Geoff Holmshaw rented from Mrs Coupe at the Farm.

  • The building in the middle, my dad’s friend converted into living quarters. Garages at the bottom, 3 story from the front, 2 from the back. Me and my brother hand mixed every bucket of plaster that went in those walls from about 8 years old upwards.

  • The Farmhouse belongs to my friend, I’ll show the family the pictures and they’ll no doubt be able to date it within a year or two.
