I only knew the mother Mrs Wright, a real formidable woman, and her three sons George, Harry & Richard. George went into property repairing, and Harry worked for some time at Moseleys Bakery in Jacob St, I think Richard was the last one to use it as a farm, they had a rooster that attacked any one who went near the place, I always carried a stick with me when I went to West farm.

Thanks for that retlaw although the Richards family did farm the leafield along with other family members who still live at moleside farm to the left of west farm at the top of sandy lane, one of the brothers Thomas Richards had a butchers shop up willows lane.
