South West Farm. Shown on map of 1833 and 1st edition Ordnance Survey map. Dates to the early 1700s. In 1950 the buildings were altered to offices, a builder's merchants and showroom. In later years the section facing onto Front Street was converted into a small supermarket (Spar). The castellated stone boundary walls and gate piers also survive.
