Monument record 1419/2 - Astwell Park

Now known as Astwell Park Farm. Many of the farm buildings have now been demolished.

{1} Farm buildings present on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map.

{2} Farm buildings are present on the 1812 Surveyors Drawings, although the detail is not sufficiently clear to identify individual buildings.

{3} Exposed within the reduced area were the brick footings of a range of 19th-century farm outbuildings. The outbuildings, which are depicted on the first edition Ordnance Survey map of 1885, were demolished at sometime between 1980 and 2000. The land was subsequently landscaped into a garden.
