A farm has been located here since at least the 17th Century (although the current building is probably later). It is empty at the present time and it and the barn behind it are being renovated. An archaeological assessment can be viewed here http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogue/adsdata/oasis_reports/greenlan1/ahds/dissemination/pdf/greenlan1-71098_3.pdf
