Mill Farm

Mill Farm was historically part of the large Cosford Estate in the Thursley area, sold in June 1952 along with other properties like Cosford Mill and Cosford Park.

The farmhouse was a semi-detached two up two down, certainly not very grand. It even had the small bathroom in the kitchen! Sid and Maddie Hall, the farmer, were Eddie Morgan's parents, Sid's brother lived in the other half. Both Sid and Maddie did a lot in the village societies Sid especially in the Horticultural Society I believe there is  a cup named after him. Robert's father bought the farm after Sid retired but he continued to live in the cottage. The original old buildings which were next to the old mill are gone now (Roger Taylor built his party barn on the site) and we built the barns. When the highways people widened the A 3 we had all the sand they dug off and used it to flatten the site on which our new barns are built.
