Barnet House, 1920s? (See transcript below of note on back)
(from Katherine Smailes)

" The original of this was found in the attic of Barnet House by Mr & Mrs Chippindale who had just bought the property from Richard Bonas, who had been in a home to many years, this was in the autumn of 1971. The photo shows one of the Miss Huttons feeding the hens - could have been taken in the early 1920's.

Certainly before the end of the house was altered about 1932.

The land belonging to the farm was bought by Mr Henry Atkinson in Summer of 1971."
