“The property was owned by the local Linn Family builders around the 1920’s, who used to run a builders yard from the back of the property and behind the row of adjacent terraces (see old photo with the builders yard sign present at the front of the drive); this may explain the way the 3 cottages have flying freeholds! Mr Linn senior is believed to have built the original wooden culvert which took the stream under the high street early in the 19th Century. The deeds still have the builders right to use the water from the outhouse!”
