The village of Limpsfield in East Surrey has long been appreciated for its wealth of historic domestic architecture. However, the identities of the people who owned and lived in its houses before the twentieth century have been largely untraced.
This talk will explain how I reconstructed the history of a Limpsfield cottage and the land on which it stands, resulting in a revised understanding of its age and the discovery of fascinating information about its owners and residents.
The story of one seemingly insignificant cottage gives remarkable insights into the history of south-east England from the medieval era to the present day and demonstrates the potential of archival research to shed light on houses throughout Britain.
Speaker biography will be available soon.
